Do I be illin'?

I awoke this morning to a slightly raw throat. The one someone gets with excessive post nasal drainage. I'm feeling a bit wrong in the sinuses, with an unsavory runny nose to boot.

So, it's time to drop some Airborne, and other vitamins, as well as some sudafed.

I'm watching the Asia channel on Comcast and there is some show about a South Asian Swimsuit Calendar.

Last night was spent watching an episode of Six Feet Under, drum practice, and some more reading of Bill Moyer's Genesis.

I found a new Podcast from Pandora on some music recording and some basic music theory stuff. I think for a beginner, this is a pretty cool thing.

zonereyrie is reporting on Tivo's booth at CES 2007. For those who are interested in the Comcast/Tivo collaboration, check it out.

Time to get ready for work.

How's your day going?

Tuesday Night

Well, I'm trying to hold off something...still have post nasal drainage, but I'm not out of commission, yet. There is definitely the sinus sensation, however.

I made some shredded chicken this weekend. I am now a fan of trying to make various shredded meats to eat throughout the week. I simmered 4 chicken breasts in chicken stock and and a blend of cayenne pepper, serano chilis, garlic, onion, cumin, salt and pepper. I've used it for chicken tacos, chicken quesadilla, and now I took the rest and made an enchilada casserole out of it. 'Tis baking right now.

I could easily do this again, but more of a chicken marsala and I could put it over pasta or rice. Or a shredded bbq chicken.

I'm feeling lazy yet again. A new House is on tonight. I've got plenty to read, some drum practice to do--this year I'm going to dedicate myself to daily practice. No more slackin' off.

Well, not as much, anyway.

I hope everyone's evening is going well!

The iPhone

Yes, Apple announced the iPhone at last.

Here's a reasonable analysis of the iPhone.

And here's another from Time.

Like the writer above, I probably won't be rushing out to buy one. I've got an SDA and right now, that's doing just fine. Also, there's a matter of Cingular being the provider. Not too pleased with that, though arguably, it does have better signal at home. Oddly, my personal cell performs better at work, whereas my work phone performs better at home. Dammit.

Anyway, the iPhone is dead sexy, and it should work well. I like the notion of a fully functioning browser...one that syncs up with your internet shortcuts on your computer. However, what if you don't use Safari? If that's the case, I may not be too thrilled.

So, I got time. I want more than 8G of storage. If I'm going to spend 600 and switch to cingular, I want a heckuva lot more.
