It Was a Good Day
Today got organized on the GPS Experiment.
Going to start a working on a new project with my buddy soon.
Went to go work out and met Rick… who had my watch that I lost a few weeks ago.
Got a PR on Helen. 8:57!
Today I didnt even have to use my a.k.
I got to say it was a good day.
iPhone
Hey everyone… guess who’s the proud owner of a new 16GB Black iPhone! Only took 5hrs of waiting. I still need to change my plan. Apparently they could only add the data plan for $30 and SMS plan $15. So its my old minutes plan plus $30+$15. Ouch! So I’m going to switch to the $69.99 plan + $15 SMS text.
So the first call I get on my iPhone is work around 1ish. Worked for 7 more...

iPhone Wait
I have a few friends waiting in line. They said it was moving fast up until 10am. Then the line crawled. Maybe about the same time the iTunes servers started going down. Total wait time so far 7hrs. Estimated Time Left: 2hrs.
Activation Difficulty
Looks like apple is having trouble activating the iPhones. The servers are going up and down like my GPS benchmark data. =(
Well… right about now my data looks better then the iTunes servers, haha. Looks like im going to wait a few days.

Installing VM’s, ServiceMix, ActiveMQ, and my code to run the benchmark test.

Team Fran
On Saturday my buddy Jon and I made up a crossfit workout. We called it “Team Fran”
Person 1
5 Thrusters 95lbs
5 Pull-Ups
= 1 rep
Person 2
Running 400 meters
When Person 2 comes back he takes over the Thrusters/Pull-Ups and Person 1 runs the 400. Keep switching back and forth.
As many rounds as possible in 20mins.
We hit 26… it was a pretty tough workout.

Amazon's EC2 Having Problems With Spam and Malware →
Amazon will terminate the instance. That means that the spammer just creates another instance, which gets a new IP address, and continues spamming.’ True enough – as described, instance termination simply isn’t good enough.
