Built-in Bluetooth phone

Why didn’t anyone think of this when Bluetooth was available? It’s so obvious that most of us needed an item like this. The LG Decoy, a phone with a built-in Bluetooth that could be stored in the back. The good news, with this built in Bluetooth, people will eventually stop walking around with their headset as though they’re waiting for important phone calls. I'm sorry to say this, but I think it looks ridiculous whenever people walk around with a bluetooth attached to their ears and not even using their cell phone. Unless you’re using it for work or driving, don't even bother putting it on.

Anyways, for those of you that are still not into the whole Iphone & Blackberry hype, go get this. One thing you just have to remember is that, like all products, in a few months this will be outdated because another company will develop a better one. Ha!

Some good news

Feeling broke? Put it this way, everyone else is feeling the same so it's not just you. However, here are some good news... Within a 2-week period, gas prices has dropped 52 cents, and even lower than $2 in some parts of the country. Also, in comparison to October of last year, theaters have gained 42% increase in revenue. Considering the fact that movie tickets has been declining all summer, this is big for Hollywood. This also tells you that people are slightly more comfortable in spending.

Time to vote

Only 9 days left so turn in your ballot asap to make sure your vote counts. Otherwise, you won't be able to sleep at night. Like my professor once said, "If you don't vote, don't complain. Once it's over, you have no right to say anything ". Sounds a bit harsh but it's true. You can't sit around and make a fuss about something that you were never part of. Well besides presidency, there are 34 different propositions in California, 12 state and 22 city propositions. Other than proposition 8 (eliminating same-sex marriages), read the book if you're not familiar with the other ones.

I have the mail-in ballot so I just need to send it back in. :)

Wicked

Ever heard of Wicked, the award-winning musical? They keep blasting it on the radio. I think their marketing team did a fantastic job because after listening to the promo on the radio 3 times, I'm anticipating on going to the show. The thing is, I've never perceived musical shows the way others do. Actually, I've only been to 1 musical my entire life... about 12 years ago. It was part of a class field trip... you know one of those trips that teachers try to get you to open up to other things besides video games and Cartoons. Anyways, from what I remembered, I was bored out of my mind. Well, times have changed and I often find things like this quite interesting, much different than sport events, festivals, comedy shows, etc. For me, I'd probably applaud the show from a creative standpoint, the way the musical is orchestrated. That's just the way I am.

Well, Wicked have already hit California this year so if you're down in Los Angeles, go see it. For folks in San Francisco, we'll have to wait until January '09 to get tickets.

Go Niners!

I have high expectations for the San Francisco 49ers this year. Ever since 1999, when Steve young took a hard blindside hit, the team never recovered. Despite many changes, I think this year is the turning point for the team. J.T O' Sullivan will lead the team to the playoffs. Well, that's if Coach Nolan gets his act together.

You know what's really cool? I'm holding onto 4 tickets to the 49ers v.s Eagles. Lower Box! These go for $300-$400 a pop so you know I'm extremely excited. My friends are too since I'm inviting them to go for free. :)

Here's a photo from last year. yea, we'll be sitting at the same spot. :)

Bailout

Do you know what the Bailout plan is all about? It seems like the whole country is relying on this bailout plan to prosper. Personally, I'm not sure if this will lead to a better economy in the long run. As much as I tried to read up on this matter, I'm still confused to how this will benefit us. Just imagine, giving a small stash of cash to a large crowd of poor, desperate and hungry group of people. What happens? Suddenly, tension escalates and all things become disordered. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against this so called bailout plan. If we have to sacrifice a little and throw money into the pot to get things back on track, I'm all for it. Unfortunately, the economy is far from stability so it could take up to 10 years to find out if the plan works or not.
From my understanding, the plan exceeds 400 pages and has been revised twice. One thing that still stand is that taxpayer will have to open up their wallet in order to help fix this financial mess. Most of its $700 billion, the government plans to buy distressed mortgages and bad debts. Am I wrong on this? Hopefully by doing that, we will avoid another economic catastrophe also known as the great depression. Well, whether this plan is good or bad, at least we have a plan to do something about the economic crisis. I don't know about you but I'm a bit tired of hearing about this economic crisis. I do believe that things will get better, I just don't know when.
