  1. I wonder how water resistant it will be; does rain mean rain in Cupertino or a sudden downpour in Houston? The latter is a bit more like a shower.
  2. Same as Haj. I would prefer the iPhone 5s to be slightly shorter but I'm happy with the current size. However, any wider (in the short direction) and I won't be able to use it with one hand (without dropping it all the time). I even had trouble using the Nexus S with one hand.
  3. The new sizes are really annoying. Why couldn't they keep one the same size as the 5s and just make the Plus bigger.
  4. Nearly tied at the end of Sunday night, the matchup came down to a battle of the Detroit running backs... and the Biscuit boy goes down! I guess my nearly all autopick (except for Matt Rysn) team didn't do too badly in league 2.
  5. Breakfast at La Note. Lemon Gingerbread pancakes are tasty.
  6. Autopick sucks. I need to go find me a QB.
  7. Just finished Silicon Valley Season 1
  8. Yeah, I have found that one can get some decent B&W photos at night with high ISO.
  9. Here is one of the pictures I took with the Ricoh GR on my trip last week to Busan, Korea. It was taken handheld on a rocky boat and it was pretty dark. Gwangan Bridge The first is B&W jpg straight from the camera. The second pictures is RAW converted to jpg with minimal adjustments (since I don't know how to do much in LR still). I can't decide which one I like best (probably the B&W). Comments and criticisms are always appreciated.

    Mattresses

    That is good to know. If you buy them in a store, you can return it but only get store credit. So then it makes sense to get the cheaper bed and if we don't like it, return it for credit towards the more expensive bed.

    Mattresses

    I've found US Mattresses and their incredible prices. I am a little reluctant to order from them because of some of their reviews. We'll see. I guess there might be some good sales this holiday weekend.
  13. Go for the bigger living room plus balcony!!!

    Mattresses

    After trying out tons of mattresses in the store (many different foam, coil, and a couple of latex mattresses), I have decided that I am really picky about them and don't want to buy a mattress without trying it out in the store. I am not sure trying one out in the store will be as useful as sleeping on one in real life but there were a LOT of mattresses that I just didn't even find comfortable for a short amount of time. I also realized that I don't want a mattress that was super firm (especially after staying on one last week). I just don't it will give me the support I want (and it hurts to sleep on my side when I do). There were two mattresses I really liked 1) Simmons Beautyrest Recharge World Class Luxury Firm (the one with 1000 coils, we haven't been able to find the one to try out with the extra small 1000 coils yets). We have Simmons right now with the pocket coils we have really liked it. 2) Tempur-pedic Rhapsody Luxe. I don't mind paying the price for this one if I *knew* that it would bring me 10+ years of great sleep. I am just not sure that a foam mattress is what I want. There were a lot of foam mattresses (Tempur-Pedic and other brands) that I didn't really like. This makes me worried about getting a mattress without trying it (I don't want to have to ship the thing back). Now, we just have to try a few more beds and make a decision. The two mattresses we like are really very different so it is a difficult choice. Also I am trying to decide if it would be worth going from a Queen to a King size mattress.
