Got a white-noise/rain/ocean/bird noise generator app ("apps" are applications on smart phones) sort of for the baby but the "ocean" sounds knocked me on my ass. Still sleepy, hence dearth of content today...

What I'm doing wrong with Tetris on my Droid
I downloaded Tetris back in September and it has come in handy. But I think I was better like a month in than now.
What's gone wrong is that I'm jumpy. I do the quick dragdown sometimes without double-checking that the piece is going where I want it.
I need to just settle down and know that time is an endless immensity, and that I should be patient.

Lemon app
My "what speed is this ceiling fan going?" phone "app" is obviously the biggest thing to hit phones since les oiseaux furieux, so I will go on to my next big venture: an "app" that, when held up to a lemon, will tell you whether it is rife with seeds or not.
If only there was some sort of "search engine"-type computering program that could teach me how to tell which lemons will be super-seedy!

Ah, well, someday. Until then there will be my "app."

At last! The phone "app" (short for application, like on your computer) that will make me MILLION$$$
Okay, so we have a ceiling fan in the kitchen (3 speed) and one in the bedroom (5 speed). Powering these all the way down, when, in one's dotage, one doesn't remember which runs at which speed, is a pain in th' ass. I have actually spent more years than I have been alive standing there watching to see that the fan has stopped, or, worse, having it at the stopped chain-pull and anxiously, panickedly pulling the chain again on accident thus setting the entire horrific process in motion again (and we've only lived there two years)!
Okay, so, phone app: hold your phone up to the fan as if it were StarMaps. This app will tell you:
1. How many speeds are on that particular fan
2. What speed it's on now
3. How many tugs of the chain it will take to power it completely off
Plus! Most apps are about .99 or 2.99. This one will cost $30,000, and be a bargain at thirty times the price!
