Google's Blogger and FireFox Don't Play Well Together

After lamenting my installation of ie9 the other day, I was trying to do an update to one of my other blogs in FireFox. After several frustrating attempts, I opened ie9 and went into Blogger and the update went as smooth as could be.  After having been in the computer business of over 25 years and using computers  for 31 years you would think I would be resigned to the continued incompatibilities.
Sadly I'm not. I guess if I was a programmer I could do something about it, but I am not. So instead all I can do is complain. 
This pic has nothing to do with my post except,
I love the TV show and well..let's leave it at that.

Speaking of which, the abysmal Call of Duty, World at War that I was patching, crashed my system beyond recovery on the 5th of 7 patches. I'm leaving it sit for awhile so the steam can vent from the room. Luckily no one from Activision was nearby or my frustration could have ended with me incarcerated. What kind of idiots produce a computer video game that demands a 392mb patch let alone 7 multi mb patches? Alas the world of computer and possible the world has a plethora of idiots. Take in case the multiple stop sign runner I was behind this morning. Oh, well I hang with the good guys and avoid the bad. Someday I may buy an Apple and see if all the stupidity of the PC world is there too.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
