I recently filled out a survey that Audible.com sent me. This is my letter of complaint about the bookmarking problems of their audiobooks on the Apple Shuffle. Yes, I need to join AA (Apple Anonymous). Hello, my name is Daniel and I'm an Appleholic. Read the damn letter. Apple fix the shuffle before I go postal! Please put the audible podcast on itunes. I tried to subscribe through ipodder and they said it had "no content to download." Also, please make it more compatible with Mac OSX. I tried to listen to a book today and the Mac couldn't read the file. Usually Realplayer pops up to play the content, but this time Windows Media player popped up and I got an error message. Please pressure Apple to fix the Apple Shuffle software. This is an absolutely impertinent issue. The shuffle is a wonderful player, but the bookmarks do not stay on the shuffle. I've been downloading format 4 and it doesn't work. Sometimes I'll pause a book, like "Ulysses...

Big Sista is Watching You...Sorry Andrea :) I'm at "Cookin" in Gyeong Ju Hello JK...You're cute, even though you are evil Look somebody had a baby David...David...David... One of my students.

Hey guys, this is what I found on the internet after extensive searching on how to get an F4 visa in Korea. It seems relatively painless and I hope that it works. I'm going to try it in a week or so. Dan Thanks to Alpha from Dave's ESL Cafe :) I decided to write this because there seems to be some confusion as to how to go about getting an F-4 Visa, and not to mention because I ran around like a chicken without a head trying to get an F-4 Visa. A. First, you need to obtain these documents, and must be at least 22 years old (American age) in order to apply for the F-4 Visa. 2 copies of your Naturalization/Citizenship certificate (if you don't have the certificate, go to the American embassy to fill out a form to obtain the number, and the date that you became a citizen. Type a simple letter stating the information, and if your name changed when you became a U.S citizen, state that you are the same person from the Family registry, e.g My korean name is xxxx, and my American...

I have too many songs! I don't know what to do! I have like 16 days worth of music now and I don't know how to access the good ones! Cataloging this shit could take years! Aaaarrrrgh! My new favorite group is The White Stripes. New playlist is... The White Stripe's Hectic Mix Stay tuned to my next blog.

One of my students yelled out in fright and warning when I held a red pen in my hand. I was simply taking the roll and well, the student was worried that I was writing her name in red. Apparently, if I wrote her name in red, I would have condemned her to death. Creepy isn't it. How much power to do Korean teachers really have?

PEG Black Tuesday October 29th, 1929 The DJIA was on a 6 year bull going from 85.76 to 381.17 . The market crashed at 230.07 on Tuesday, October 29th, 1929 It was 55 days after the market hit 381.17 for the market to crash. Next bull market started on July 24, 1984 - DJIA closed at 1086.57 it was a three year rise to its peak of 2722.42, August 25, 1987. 55 days later it crashed again...strange huh? Alan Greenspan came to the rescue and stopped it from causing another recession and raining on Reagan's parade. "Some economists believe that the roughly 60-year period between the two great crashes is no accident. They point to an underlying cycle of prices and economic activity, the so-called Kondratieff Wave. Indeed, looking back 60 years from the 1929 crash brings us face to face with another fiancial panic, the original Black Friday: September 4, 1869, which a business panic was precipitated by a group of financiers trying to corner the gold market." Marc Groz So I g...

I'm reading Jeremy Siegel's the Future for Investors. He's telling me that I'm falling into the "growth trap" and my investment strategy sucks. He's probably right. I mean, I don't know exactly what I'm doing - yet I've made $2000 dollars in the last three months. Beginner's luck, I think. He's saying that I should be more conservative in my investment strategy. Hold the stock "FOREVER". I don't know about all that, but he's saying that buying older stocks and reinvesting the dividends will make me more money in the long run. I don't think he's entirely wrong. I'm going to look into Kraft Foods, KFT, Coca-Cola, KO, General Electric, GE, Disney, DIS, and Exxon, XON and so on. I mean it was a strategy I was already thinking anyway. Sort of... He's probably good at his job you know.

The Master doesn't try to be powerful; thus he is truly powerful. The ordinary man keeps reaching for power; thus he never has enough. The Master does nothing, yet he leaves nothing undone. The ordinary man is always doing things, yet many more are left to be done. The kind man does something, yet something remains undone. The just man does something, and leaves many things to be done. The moral man does something, and when no one responds he rolls up his sleeves and uses force. When the Tao is lost, there is goodness. When goodness is lost, there is morality. When morality is lost, there is ritual. Ritual is the husk of true faith, the beginning of chaos. Therefore the Master concerns himself with the depths and not the surface, with the fruit and not the flower. He has no will of his own. He dwells in reality, and lets all illusions go.
