I do not have a single day off from April 26 through May 29. And most of those days are working day and night.

I just had a 12 hour shift at the golf course. I don't think I could possibly handle that for a month straight. I'm so drained right now it's incredible.

If it makes you feel any better I worked a 14 hour shift, followed by 4 days afterward of regular 8 hour shifts Ana lol...was quite brutal.

If you have kids who drive, this could be useful... maybe. It was released in the app store this morning. It's a very limited use IMO, but hey, I just get paid to help make it.

As I mention HERE...

Waldo 1; Osama 0; (But he put up a good fight)

How damn hard was it to catch a 6'5 jihadist carrying around a dialysis machine from cave to cave? /facepalm

Everything has it's pros and cons... America is obsessed with retaliation and retribution - which can be warranted, but it should never be an end goal and should never cause someone to lose sight of the real threat. Osama the man wasn't a threat, it was the ideas he represented and after him is another 200 folks in line for his job.

I have an eye-for-an-eye mentality when it comes to punishment, so I am happy that he has the chance to meet God and be judged - but I am also pretty surprised to see so many people scream and shout as if the war is over and everything can go back to pre 9/11 days. If the goal of the military was to get retribution, it's time to bring our troops home now more than ever. When that happens I will be jumping for joy in the streets.

Also, President Obama had a very nice speech. Probably my favorite, or in the top three. Undoubtedly, it will be his "historical" presidential speech. He briefly discussed the concepts behind the 9/12 project, who the enemy was, why they were the enemy, why we went to war (giving hidden props to Bush in the process), the families of those who lost loved ones on 9/11, and an appropriate-enough description of the intel and process of what happened. He acknowledged that the effort is not over and the fight is not done, and is not against a religion. Best of all? He did not omit "under God" again when quoting the Pledge of Allegiance. For that, we thank you.



Also, yes. It was broin.


Supposedly, this is the first pic of deadOsama. http://pikchur.com/Af0J

It was only a matter of time.  Still, good to know we can rest that much easier.  We'll never go back to pre 9-11 days, but this sends a clear and definite message:  you can't hide.

About God-damn fucking time. For the first time ever (I think), I salute your military.

You know this reminds me of Clear and Present Danger in that sense. Which would make Broin.... Jack Ryan? O.o

First thing I've worked on that made it to Engadget! Mostly mixed feelings about it so far out there, due to the points I noted - but it's still nice to be a part of it.
