Things I have always wanted to ask

skaorsk8 by skaorsk8 · May 19, 2003 · 499 views · · · Journal

Here are my list of things that keep me awake at night...

Does anyone have software for keeping track of field service, return visits, and the like on a palm?? Does such software exist?

Umm why is it that whenever I try to fix my car speakers, they sound worse than they did before?? WHAT is that buzzing noise?

Isn't it nice that punk CDs are cheaper than others? I know I saw the All American Rejects for 6.99 at Target this week. I think.

Ian, when are you going to make Ezabel for WAP 1.1? Some WML script or something? That'd be good for all the times I'm sitting in meetings at work bored out of my skull.

Has anyone ever seen The Italian Job? I mean, THE ORIGINAL. I called a lot of video stores trying to find it, this weekend, and they were all like..."yeah, it's not out yet." I screamed at the last place I called, I was sooo sick of hearing that answer. "WHAT KIND OF MORON CALLS A VIDEO STORE TO GET A MOVIE THAT ISN'T EVEN IN THE THEATER YET! It's from the 1960's!!!" I got really upset. Man. I finally just downloaded it. I know, it's illegal, yada yada yada. But I can't find it anywhere else.

I saw my heroes this weekend...I won't talk about that.

I taught Bobby Vaden how to drive stick in less than 5 minutes in the Garden State Plaza parking lot late Sunday night. He's now better than most of my friends who drive stick.

Wow, I guess I didn't have as much to say as I thought I did.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

oobster oobsterOG 2002 ·

Paulo Desarr (sp?) has got field service software on his palm thingy. Its soo good, its got drop down menu's for everything, territory (in the country or in the city), Not homes, Literature placed, whether the person was friendly or not. He wrote it himself I think, it's pretty clever.

Our Rick has seen the original Great Escape, aswell as all the original Bond movies.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

dude, the next time we're out let me listen to your speakers....

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

my speakers are good now! alpine's in the back, kenwoods in the front. thanks to chuckie!!

magnum magnumOG 2001 ·

who wants to stick there head in my trunk and see if my speakers are actin weird like i think they are?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

not if theres too much junk in the trunk

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001 ·

I have service software for your palm. I gave it to ok4now too. The buzzing noise in my speakers was a vibration between the edge of the actual speaker and the body of the car. Make sure everything's tight, because even a little gap makes the sound poor.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

now HERE is the correct example of a useful post!!! (please email me a link to get this software...thanks!!)

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

she gave that software to me, too. I don't know if she knows a link to get it off the net.

ok4now ok4nowOG 2002 ·

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

send me an EZ message so i don't get any spam by putting my email addy on here

iwz iwz ·

redoing the site for wap or whatever is a lot of work... :/

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

isn't there a program that can make it into wap for you automatically?? i'm remembering something like www.wapdrive.com

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

how about Spyglass Prism...that seems to be some kind of useful software for turning html into wap

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

from the WAP FAQ-

How do I use ColdFusion to produce WML pages?

To serve WML pages with ColdFusion, simply add

< CFCONTENT type="text/vnd.wap.wml">


to the start of your page. Easy huh? (Obviously you should also ensure that the content created by the page is WML v1.1 compatible...)

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

ohhh I thought of another question. Does anyone know how to rip music from a concert DVD??

iwz iwz ·

dvdrhelp.com has plenty of tutorials

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

hahaha ok ok. yes, i'm a wannabe. i'm really in sales. i don't need to know any of this anyway.

theremin thereminOG 2002 ·

Speaking of videos that for some reason you can't get at any video stores, it seems... If anyone knows where "Pumping Iron" can be purchased (And, excluding online; I'm talking a "brick-and-mortar"), it would prove very helpful. Thanks.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

You read about all these terrorists--most of them came here legally, but they hung around on these expired visas, some for as long as 10-15 years. Now, compare that to Blockbuster: you're two days late with a video and those people are all over you. Let's put Blockbuster in charge of immigration.

seit2see seit2seeOG 2002 ·

i hate to state the obvious.. but the reason punk cds are so cheap is because punk sucks hahahaa

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

maybe that's why they have 20 of her cds on the rack

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

dude, what are you doing going into Sam Goody anyway, how can you not know that cd's there are insane? I mean it's like, does this price include vasoline?

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

vasoline?? are you serious?? wow. if i don't buy cd's online, tower records isn't really in my normal path of travel.
