Our Refi Busted
Started the refi process on our home in mid-May. We just closed last week, supposedly funding was going through this week from our new lender to our old one.
Turns out the federal government shut down our new lender. We have to start the refi process all over again.
Refi Fail.

Censored words omitted from the iPhone dictionary include: fuck, shit, bitch, ass, snatch, pussy, cock, screw and probably a shit ton of other words that aren’t even considered profane unless given the proper context and state of mind.

Horse Neighing Sounds Make Everything Better

As cheesy as it sounds
I like all the automated “Happy Birthday” emails from the various sites that know when your birthday is.
You know you’re an internet junky when you get more automated birthday emails than you do real birthday wishes from your friends/family.
WatchYou need this shit.

In Firefox 2.0, it worked perfectly. In every other browser, it did not work.
It still doesn’t work in every other browser, and in Firefox 3.0 they have decided to remove this feature.
You suck browser people. A fixed-height, scrollable TBODY is not exactly a holy grail but apparently it has turned into one.
How to use iSync to sync your Address Book with...
I guess I should have expected this to be a complete and utter pain, but damn. Apparently the only way iSync will even function is if you have added a device. It doesn’t have to be currently connected, but you just have to have added a device to iSync at some point in time, then the damn thing magically works. Then it gives you a big warning message about how iSync failed because the device...
On the recent celebrity deaths
This is what I’ve noticed in water cooler conversations, either at work or wherever else people BS with each other just to waste time.
In order of frequency:
Michael Jackson
On how unfair it is that other celebrities who died ± two weeks of Michael Jackson’s death are not being talked about enough.
How hot it has been this summer
If we’ll get any rain

Austin Drivers are Quite Terrible
It seems like they save their shitty driving days up and unleash them on the population all on the same day. I wish I could blame it on all the hipsters, but the extent of bad drivers extends far behind the confines of 78704.
One of these days I’m gonna put together a little series called “Driving 101 with Justin”.

Things I hate about Safari, #2
When a slow page is loading and I hit escape to stop the page load, it does not stop. I have to click the stupid loading/stop icon/button and it finally stops.
Old Safari was nicer in this respect.
Safari 4 final has fixed this. Hooray.
