So the wife's HTC Incredible uses a mini USB charger. My LG also uses a mini USB charger. And my new Kindle Fire (Thanks Baby!) yep, you guessed it... it also uses a mini USB charger.
So the question we must now ask... Why in the name of sanity, common sense and reasonable logic do these identical mini USB chargers NOT WORK universally with the other 2 devices?????
How can i have three identical USB cords yet while it charges the Incredible it wont charge my Ally? They are both phones! They are within the same family of devices! Borrowing from my brother in law... "Does that make any sense to you?" It sure as hell doesn't to me.
Listen you highly intelligent, progressive-thinking, gadget creating (i'll replace another four letter word with) TECHholes..... Get it together! Majority of devices are going with the mini USB and the majority of these devices are priced probably double or triple what it takes to make them. Are you seriously now going to force me to spend MORE money on an individual charger for each of them???
For all its genius, advances, usefulness and convenience, technology can be... hmm let me rephrase that.... the greedy money hungry techholes that create these technologies can be pretty stupid.
Now you'll excuse me as I need to charge my Kindle, my Ally and my Blackberry.

It's a New Year
First I will say that i'm not sure i like this new look that blogger.com has. Just throwing that out there.
Now to business... Happy New Year to all.
I trust that everyone has recovered from their various holiday afflictions like food comas, alcohol poisoning, spontaneous "I wasted another year" depression episodes and the "holy crap, I spent HOW much money on gifts?" financial pit traps. Just a sidebar that this last one is usually suffered for an extended period of time and is sometimes accompanied by PSTISSD. (Post-Spending-Truamatic-I'm-Screwed-Stress-Disorder) Good luck with that.
Now for a little inspiration.
Then He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." - Revelation 21:5 NKJV
Since traditionally people seem to think that the only time they can make changes is the start of the new year, here we are people. It's time. I myself have always believed that it doesn't matter what day it is, you can start change on any day of the week, month or year. You just have to commit to making the change. But for the rest of you who need that its a brand new year motivation, get to it!
And lets not be so completely unrealistic with these changes, some are larger than others of course but sometimes even the smallest change makes a world of difference. Maybe we can all start by just trying to be better PEOPLE.
Commit to being a better a friend, a better listener, a better reader, a better speaker. Commit to leaving one grudge in the past, forgiving someone for a transgression, ask forgiveness for one of yours.
Commit to learning how to finally program that smartphone, finish that book you started last year, the crossword you started last week.
Commit to reading every line of your cable bill, or your electric bill or your cell phone bill so that you understand what youre paying and why and how you can possibly save yourself a few dollars a month. Commit to paying off that one credit card, that overdue bill or setting aside $25 a week to get yourself that special something you've been wanting.
Commit to not having that next slice of pizza, to having a salad once a week, to doing 105 situps a week. (Thats 15 a day for the mathematically challenged) How about committing to doing a couple of long division problems a week? I jest but a change could be as simple as that.
I know its cliche but everyday truly IS another chance to do better, feel better, act better. Make sure that when 2013 comes around, you wont need to say "I wasted another year." Every accomplishment is a step towards another.
Live long and prosper and stay thirsty my friends.
Much love and blessings.
