But, trust me here...once you jump to the dark side, it'd be hard to ever go back.<br /><br />Lou: I read that expression when I was about 15 years old in the newspaper. It was a story about a local high school player hitting two free throws with zero left on the clock to win a big game. I've never forgotten that one.<br /><br />Buck: Steve who??? Nope, this is Louisiana. They were giving away Tigers & Saints key chains.<br /><br />Inno, I don't think I'll go whole hog with apples. I mean, I'm a pc guy, and my lifestyle and needs don't really require pads & pods. I am a practical sort. I mean, hell I'm just now getting a phone with letters big enough to text from.<br /><br />Stopsign, thanks for the info. I will e-mail you something about #4 son, his age, challenges, etc.<br /><br />Dave & MUD, it seems y'all are also appleized (either by choice or requirement). MUD, that story is CHOICE! NYUK! Two years old? Nyuk... And, get Barb one of these. She might finally love ya'. Nyuk...<br /><br />Moogie, thanks for the input. Imma check out some of those. I got one called "Genius Scan" that Staci recommended by computer letter. That baby is suh-weet!Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945901944078164054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-49742818830512352642011-11-30T12:56:47.576-06:002011-11-30T12:56:47.576-06:00Most excellent wheeling and dealing!
I love my ...Most excellent wheeling and dealing! <br /><br />I love my iPhone most of the time. One thing you need to know -- you can't answer a phone call while wearing gloves. It is a needy little thing that requires human contact. Your next purchase? A car charger. It's also a hungry little thing.<br /><br />Apps -- most local tv stations, and some radio, have free apps. They'll even send you updates and breaking news stories. I think the AP app is free -- it's a good way to get a jumpstart on the news before rolling out of bed in the morning. One of my favorites is iVideoCamera. It's not free, but it's not expensive either. There's also Genius, a still and video app, that also charges a small fee. WhipCast is free and keeps you in the know about what's going on in Congress.<br /><br />I have 2 Mardi Gras "parade trackers" courtesy of local tv stations, but they're always overwhelmed during the big parades and lock up. I hope they're working on that before Carnival season kicks off. CNN and FoxNews both have free apps, along with The Weather Channel (which, although way off the mark) is much better than the Weather App that comes pre-programmed. <br /><br />Once you start downloading apps and have a whole bunch of them (which you will, because it's like eating peanuts or Lay's Potato Chips -- I know, you prefer Kroger Ranch Potato Chips), remember to keep an eye on the App Store icon for updates.<br /><br />Angry Birds goes without saying. Words With Friends is also fun -- kinda like Scrabble.<br /><br />Tucker is cuter every day! I hope you don't find half of that phone in between the cushions!Moogie Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05665429537064900337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-91405246271066237162011-11-30T09:59:15.204-06:002011-11-30T09:59:15.204-06:00I was visiting my in-laws last week and a grand ni...I was visiting my in-laws last week and a grand niece came over with her two year old. I took out my I phone and he grabbed it faster than candy. He turned it on by pushing the on button, slid the unlock bar and went straight for the apps. He was actually pissed that I didn't have angry Birds on my phone. He went for the music and had it playing loud and a song came on he didn't like. I found out that if you shake the phone, it changes the song. Oh well, next time I replace the phone i too will have a plan that includes the wife on a phone.MUDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00210979052443058111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-20016464680453679022011-11-29T20:08:53.873-06:002011-11-29T20:08:53.873-06:00I had a little trouble keeping up with the story. ...I had a little trouble keeping up with the story.

He uses my phone he doesn't have one yet but he is asking for his own. I'm not sure yet..How old is your son 4? <br />I don't like that CamWow app. He takes pictures of me on it and leaves it on my phone..If you use that app you'll see why I don't like it. Although after seeing you in the cool chicken hat I think you will like it.stopsignhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14025731958009048624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-58106839532789314362011-11-29T13:40:30.681-06:002011-11-29T13:40:30.681-06:00Buck, I saw the same thing happen with the pastor ...Buck, I saw the same thing happen with the pastor of my church.
