My Blackberry Curve 8900 is in Endless “App Error 523″ Restart Cycle
31 Oct 2010 3 Comments
I woke up Thursday morning to find my Curve displaying the image above.It was reading “App Error 523″ and the next line has a clickable “Restart” button. I thought it was no biggy and I’ll just restart the device. but after a lengthy restart I get the same screen again. I didn’t install any new program and before going to bed I was checking my messages and it was working fine.
This sucks because this is my main phone and communication device. Nothing beats a good physical keyboard. Have to check with an expert for a solution.
Game Jams: Hell March – Red Alert
30 Oct 2010 1 CommentIts been ages since the last Game Jams video that I literarily forgot about them. but when I saw this video it popped right into my head. Although Command and Conquer: Red Alert was the best real time strategy game at the time, Hell March helped to imprint the game on a lot of minds even more. The game was released in 1996 and the song isn’t widely used but for everyone who played the Red Alert series its easily recognizable.

It seems that the Minister of Finance, Mr. Mustafa Al-Shamaly would prefer to carry an iPad around with him instead of a laptop. And from the paperwork above it looks like he is going to be issued one by the ministry, which means that he wants it for work related stuff and not personal use.
Don’t let me catch you getting your YouTube fix on that thing mr minister.

Paul Zerdin: Funniest Ventriloquist Sketch I’ve Seen in a Long While
26 Oct 2010 No CommentsI love ventriloquism and find some of the work some of the artists do really awesome. Guys like Jeff Dunham and Terry Fator are just amazing. What makes Paul Zerdin’s video so funny is the “involuntary volunteer” that Paul picked. He has the best facial expressions and he also did the dance.

My Co-Worker asked the tea boy here at work for some tea and he brought him one of those super-sized “estikana” and he told him that I would like a normal sized estikana. The tea boy said ok and got him what you see in the image above. What a waste of perfectly good tea.
Sorry for the week without posting by the way.
