New phone, uh, yeah

My new phone arrived today! Jane bought it for me for my Birthday (December 8th, Birthday fans), but I'm allowed to use it now as my old phone (which I've had for about 5 years now) turns itself off at random intervals. Obligatory old and new model comparison shots: A shade taller than the old one, but much thinner and…

Spambots tell jokes now

Wow, where does the time go? Waves went up a year ago, and I've posted something original on here at least once a week. Granted, it's markedly different to what I had been posting about in 2005 (man, I'm glad I'm not depressed anymore), but I think focusing on the positive stuff that you enjoy is better than posting trivial…
