This isn’t a political blog, and I’m not making political commentary, just WTF commentary.

Aides to Gov. Sarah Palin won’t comply with subpoenas issued by state lawmakers investigating the firing of Alaska’s former public safety commissioner because Palin “has declined to participate” in the probe, her attorney general says.

So it’s cool if I “decline to participate” when I’m subpoenaed? Neat! I bet that means I “decline to be arrested” or “decline this speeding ticket”.

The best part about being an adult is that you can spend Sunday afternoon on the couch watching cartoons, eating raw cookie dough, and playing video games.

We have been talking about moving back to Boston for a while now. We’re actually doing it. I’m flying out for a one day visit to Boston to go to the home inspection for the house we are probably buying.

The idea of buying a house for the first time and moving 3000 miles I’d a mixture of exciting and scary. I’ll post pictures of the house when I get back.

Wish me luck.

I recently upgraded from a 1st gen 8 GB iPhone to a 16 GB 3G 2nd gen iPhone. The 3G iPhone does not come with a dock, unlike it’s predecessor, and the Apple Store was out of docks when I purchased the phone.

I discovered that the new iPhone is slightly wider and a little deeper in the middle than the old iPhone. Rather than pulling out another $30 and ordering a new Dock online, I pulled out the old Dremel instead.

It took about 5 minutes. You have to grind out a little bit of plastic in the middle of the back of the slot to accommodate the thicker in the center iPhone. You also have to grind out the sides, expanding the width of the slot a bit. Then the new iPhone fits easily and solidly in your old dock. If you use a fine grit grinding accessory and a high speed Dremel you can’t even tell that the dock has been modified.

So if you have a Dremel, save yourself $30.

I’m not a conspiracy nut, and I believe that the majority of law enforcement officers are good people.

That said, this page and it’s videos have some GREAT information on why answering questions for the police can never help you, and will very often hurt you.

Loose lips can get you arrested
