Peak minutes - what are those? As I recently mentioned, Jennifer became IN. I knew at the time it'd work wonders for my cell phone bill, but it wasn't until this latest bill that I saw the dramatic difference (this was the first full bill I'd had that she'd been IN the whole time for). I used like no peak minutes whatsoever; they could have cut my peak minutes by damn near 75 percent and I still wouldn't have gone over! Shit was beautiful.
Whoop That Trick! I'm officially addicted to "Whoop That Trick" by Djay (off the Hustle and Flow soundtrack). To clarify, an addiction becomes official when you listen to a song more than 100 times in a 24 hour period. I can't stop. Each time if goes off, I just have to listen to it again; once it's over it's as if I've never heard it! Like fine chocolate: you just have to take another bite just see if the bite you just had was really that good!My initial love for the song started when I saw the movie and watched the three of them produce it. The beat was stupid. The baseline was really outta control. Then Djay comes in talkin'bout "Stomp that Bitch" and, for some strange reason, that was it for me! It's not often you find a hard ass beat, with an even harder hook! I'm not a violent person, but when I heard the beat my subconscious immediately flipped to kill mode. So when Djay threw that hook over it was more than appropriate, it was perfect. I understand they had to change "stomp that bitch" to "whoop that trick" for radio reasons (this is what they said in the movie anyway), but I was hoping they kept the original hook for the soundtrack. I'm a bit disappointed they didn't. It's probably better that they didn't though, as addicted as I am already I'm not sure what I'd do if it really was "stomp that bitch."
Subject line etiquette I an email yesterday with the following subject line:
Which got me thinking: isn't there a limit to the amount of information you can cram into the subject line of an email? I mean, from a protocol standpoint it would seem to me that there's only so much data you're allowed to stuff in that field… I thought anyway. More importantly, however, from a sender standpoint isn't there some sort of subject line etiquette? I mean, good God, don't put an entire email in the subject line! The aforementioned email also came with a 7 kilobyte body. Not only is that hard to read (do most email clients display the entire subject line? Most of us probably haven't checked!), but it takes away from the point of the body.
Run that by me one more time I was reading an article today over at Yahoo! News about bush, foreign policy and the evangelicals (archived if that's dead), and I came across this paragraph:
What?!?! That paragraph is awesome! Some (intellectuals I presume) may read that and know what the author was trying to say, but I'm not one of them. I haven't seen words put together like that since Race Matters.
