On the way to work I saw a bunch of people praying outside “Family Planning Associates” Turns out to be a new definition of “Family Planning” which I wasn’t previously aware of…

Quick Review of the BlackBerry 7130e with the Sprint SERO Plan
Ben: I ordered a BlackBerry. I am left-handed. The thumb wheel is on the right.
BlackBerry Support: Use the middle finger on your left hand.
Ben: um….
Before ordering
Ben: Are you sure? I don’t think the SERO plan includes blackberry data because a lot of people in forums were complaining that it doesn’t…
Sprint Rep: Of course it does. Why wouldn’t it work with the blackberry? We wouldn’t sell a BlackBerry with it if it wasn’t included in the plan.
Later
Ben: The Internet functions on my BlackBerry aren’t working.
Sprint/BlackBerry Rep: Looks like you don’t have a BlackBerry plan.
Ben: I was told that BlackBerry data is included with the SERO plan.
Sprint/BlackBerry Rep: I can add that to your plan for $49/month.
Ben: No… I was told by a Sprint Rep that the SERO plan included the BlackBerry plan after specifically asking him, also the Sprint SERO website doesn’t even give the option of adding BlackBerry data to the phone so it should be included.
Sprint/BlackBerry Rep: I see, do you want to add BlackBerry data to your plan?
Ben: No. I’ll send the phone back.

Maybe I should start bringing a camera instead of taking pictures with the webcam…
Hope everyone has had, and is having a Merry Christmas! I’m in New Orleans with Sarah sitting in a stripmall using someone’s wifi. Here’s a few pics…

I, Ben, challenge you, Sarah, Immanuel College, Immanuel Young Adults, and [your name here], to memorize the book of Philippians in NASB. We will be working on Philippians 1:1-11 this week. If you’re going to take the challenge let me know in the comments.

My First Mac.
So Aude was really happy to hear the news (although tomorrow the specs will be 2GB RAM).
And so was Michael Johnson (aka Colloquial Collision), who donated $10:
If your new MBP helps to improve your skill and trade as an Information Technology professional, then I’ve managed to double my return.
I could write a review (I may later), but for now here’s my favorite feature, and worst problem:
The Good — Apple Mail, Address Book, and iCal are separate programs (like KDE’s suite used to be), not bundled together like in Outlook, and Evolution.
The Bad — something’s goofy with the backups not getting all the metadata. I mentioned this to Michael and he posted my comments to metafilter which got quite a few responses, thanks guys.
