I got my Sidekick 3 yesterday. Wow what an amazing little do-everything device! Phone, web, email, IM, address book, calendar, camera, mp3 player and I can even blog from it like I'm doing now. The only thing this new toy doesn't do is wipe your ass. It is big compared to the RAZR and it comes with shit accessories like a bulky case and $2 headphones from Walmart but overall its an great gadget. I love new toys!
Nothing much to really rave about. Kind of disappointing. I hope Michael Bay doesn't fuck up the Transformers like Ang Lee screwed up the Hulk. So far with Bumblebee being a Camaro and rumors of Optimus Prime being a firetruck, it isn't looking good.
The latest version of the Danger Hiptop / T-Mobile Sidekick 3 is officially out and only available to current T-Mo subscribers, like your truly, starting today, July 28 and will be available to the general public on July 10. Never have I've seen such crazy frenzy over a cell phone / pda gagdet. Hundreds lined up and camped outside the Santa Monica and New York City T-Mo stores, thousands more called 611 or went to my-tmobile.com to perform the handset upgrade at midnight last night.
Hopefully this latest toy will be all that its hyped up to be. By the way, I ordered mine online a little bit past midnight last night. I even opted for UPS Express shipping and it should have it by Friday. :)

Veilside RX-7 Fortune from Fast & Furious 3 Tokyo Drift
Import cars that have appeared in past The Fast and The Furious movies can be usually considered "ricers". From the stickers, NOS, neons to the (gasp) infamous pink S2000. However in the latest version of The Fast and The Furious 3 Tokyo Drift, one car that stands out is the Veilside RX-7 Fortune.
The Veilside RX-7 Fortune is based on the third generation Mazda RX-7, a turbocharged rotary powered, rear wheel drive JDM machine of the 1990's. Veilside transformed this already magnificent automobile into a monster. Besides the obvious wide body kit, the RX-7 Fortune features an HKS T04Z single-turbo conversion kit, front mount intercooler, Veilside Teardrop titanium exhaust, Rotora big brake kit, A'PEXi coilovers, 19" VeilSide Evolution 5 wheels wrapped with Toyo Proxes tires and Veilside D1R seats.
The Veilside RX-7 Fortune is easily one of the best creations to ever come out of Japan.
These are the infinite words of wisdom that Mark Cuban, the billionaire cry baby owner of the Dallas Mavericks, offered NBA Commissioner David Stern after Game 5 of the NBA Finals, Sunday night in Miami.
Rigged? Did you say rigged? I wasn't aware that the NBA possesses super powers. Lets see...
Did the league force Nowitzki to miss that all so important free throw in Game 3? No.
Did the league force the Heat to rout the Mavericks in Game 4? No.
Did the leagus force the Mavericks to miss critical shots and free throws in Game 5? No.
Did the league force Howard to call time out during a very untimely moment in Game 5? No.
Did the league force Wade, Shaq and the Miami Heat to perform at its absolute best during crunch time while the Mavericks collapsed.
Did the league force... fill in the blank yourselves. No, no, no.
So Cuban, you can whine, cry, bitch and moan all you want. Just maybe, MAYBE, don't you think that the Miami Heat might actually be a better team? Oh no, of course not, that wouldn't make a good fucking excuse.
I went into the movie theater with very low expectations. Lucas Black and Bow Wow? A redneck in Japan doing a F&F movie about drifting? Gimme a friggin break.
Well I was pleasantly surprised. The acting was as good as can be expected, but the selection of cars this time was awesome, on par or even better than the original. I loved the Veilside RX-7 Fortune, 1967 Mustang with Skyline GT-R powertrain, Evolution and the 350Z's. There were no lame NOS and exhaust shooting out fire effects.
The Fast and The Furious 3 Tokyo Drift is slightly better than the original and far better than the 2 Fast, 2 Furious. Plus Vin Diesel makes a cameo towards the end. Perhaps as a hint of what is to come in The Fast and The Furious 4?
101-100, Miami Heat beats Dallas Mavericks in OT. You couldn't have asked for a better game in the NBA Finals. The inexperience of Dallas is really showing as when the moments count, they missed clutch shots and called that now infamous untimely time out. All the while, Wade is making his best Jordan impersonation to date.
Game 6 is tomorrow at Dallas. Miami will play for its first NBA Championship.
Mark Cuban and his childish cry baby antics. Tonight, during Game 5, his antics went into overdrive as he seemingly blamed everyone else, except his own team, for their loss in OT.
The revolutionary Audi R10, featuring Audi TDI Power, has won the 24 Hours of Le Mans, marking the world's first diesel powered race car to win Le Mans and Audi's sixth Le Mans title overall, with the R10's predecessor, the R8 winning five titles.
Hopefully, Audi will continue its winning Le Mans traditions next year with the R10 and TDI Power and beyond.
The Miami Heat creams the Dallas Mavericks 98-74 in Game 4 to even up the Series at two games a piece. Pivotal Game 5 will be on Sunday and is a must win for the Heat.
Nine seconds left in the fourth quarter. Tied at 95, Mavericks versus Heat in the NBA Finals. Heat are on a run, Mavericks in the midst of a mental meltdown. Gary Payton delivers a clutch jump shot to put Miami over the top at 97 for good. Series is now 2-1, Dallas.
There is still hope for the Heat. I believe and all of Miami believes.
The website for the Transformers movie is now live at www.transformersmovie.com. Currently its just a splash page, with a countdown to July 4, 2006, the release of the first teaser trailer and either Optimus Prime or Megatron on the cover.
Despite the recent rumors of Bumblebee being a Camaro and Optimus Prime being a firetruck, I still have high hopes in this movie, being the 80's Transformers fanboy that I am. Hopefully Michael Bay won't fuck it up.
1988. I was 14 and remember the news announcement that the NBA has selected Miami, FL for one of its expansion teams. The Miami HEAT was born. 18 years later, here we are. The NBA Finals. This is what basketball is all about.
The Dallas Mavericks are a great team. I have much respect for Mark Cuban and what he has done. He is an unique and active owner and in my opinion, what the NBA needs more of. I'm not going to trash shit the Mavs and tell you how much they suck. If they sucked, they wouldn't be here. The Mavs have great players in Nowitzki, Terry and Stackhouse, good depth and Coach of the Year in Avery Johnson.
However this IS the HEAT's time. Shaq ia not getting any younger. This might be Zo's last chance, along with Payton. Wade is still young and has plenty of time but will he have the supporting cast next season or in future seaons? Maybe, maybe not. The NBA Finals don't come around often. I always thought that Dan Marino had time but he retired leading most of the NFL's passing records but with no ring. Shaq has more playoff and NBA Finals experience than all of the Mavs combined. Riley is arguably one of the greatest coaches in recent memory, next to Phil Jackson. This is our time.
Heat will win in 6. We may fall tonight (the HEAT seems to always lose Game 1), but we will come back to Miami with the Series split at one each, with the next three games at home at the AAA.
This will be war and this is the HEAT's time. GO HEAT!
As you probably heard by now, al-Zarqawi is now dead and he must be wondering where are all these virgins are that were supposed to be waiting for me in Allah's heaven? Answer... None, because there aren't any virgins in heaven you dumb son of a bitch. Burn in hell al-Zarqawi.
Here is US Military video taken from an USAF F-16 fighter jet. Witness a laser-guided GBU-12 and a satellite-guided GBU-38 dropped from a pair of F-16's, then BOOM. Awesomeness.
Say you find a Sidekick in a NYC cab, what would you do? Try to return it to its rightful owners or keep it? Well according to How NOT to steal a Sidekick II, some residents of Corona Queens, NY decided to keep it. And not only did they keep it but they used it for AIM instant messaging and take photos of her skanky self and of her fat ass boyfriend. Here's an excerpt...
When my friend realized that she had left the Sidekick in the taxi she asked me to immediately send a message to the phone saying that we would give a reward for the phone. There was no response. After a day of waiting, she had to go to the store and spend over $300 on a new Sidekick. When she put her SIM card in, she saw that the person(s) that had taken the phone had not only signed on to AOL leaving their name and password in the phone, but they had taken pictures of themselves.
Lesson - Return stuff you find to its rightful owners.
The new Transformers live action movie is due out more than a year from now but there is already rumors circulating the world wide web of Bumblebee being a Camaro, Starscream bieng a F-22 Raptor, Megatron being a tank and Optimus Prime being a firetruck. What the fuck? Optimus a firetruck?!?! While I understand that there may be licensing agreements involved, as in Bumblebee's case and VW not allowing using its Beetle in this type of movie, and the need to modernize a 1980's cartoon, I see no reason why Optimus can't be a freightliner. Of course these are all rumors and there are conflicting reports on other websites that Optimus will be, in fact, an 18 wheeler freightliner semi-truck.
So enough of my bitching, on to the photos...
Supposely Bumblebee will start life as a 1970's Camaro...
Then he will be destroyed and reborn as a the new 2009 Camaro Concept (cool looking car, by the way)...
