クジラ食べ放題ってこと – All you can eat whale
なんか、このGrouponの広告ちょっと気持ち悪い。。。
http://www.oddee.com/item_87332.aspxほどあれじゃないけど、ちょっとね。。。
I was reading this article about the whale-hunt in Japan ceasing. Then I saw this add for “all you can eat”…. I couldn’t help thinking it was whale… Don’t get me wrong, I eat game-meat, and I don’t pass judgment one way or the other on the whaling-debat. But I am still grossed out by this….
What’s this?

Test from HTC Aria
This article is mostly a test to see if my Android phone’s WordPress App can upload media… It failed on video… let’s see how it does with a picture…
Cannot post non-ASCII chars into WordPress blog
I have some Japanese blog posts from before when I was running an early version of WordPress, and I can even enter some Japanese via phpMyAdmin and it shows as in:
http://edmiidz.com/nik/?p=115
But even if I try to type: “I was born in Montreal”, and give the e an acute accent, WP refuses to even save it in the database. I get Montr trying to save it in the Visual Editor
I wonder what happens if I write it in HTML…
Montréal (Montréal) That works!!!…
Still doesn’t help type Japanese though…. or even write accented letters without looking up their HTML encoding….
I also tried installing a few other instances of WordPress too. At first I assumed that something happened during an upgrade, and need to add something like http://www.webhost4life.com/hostingKB/KnowledgebaseArticle50270.aspx. But the new instance didn’t work. Then I tried downloading and installing the Japanese version too (as a new instance), but that didn’t work either…. All the menus showed up fine in Japanese, but any posting with non-ASCII characters would just show up blank…

16 hour time difference from LA to Tokyo
I love it when people say, I’m so jet-lagged, New York has a 13 hour time difference to Tokyo. Then the guy from LA says “you think that’s bad, there’s a 16 hour time difference from LA to Tokyo, so I’m even more jet lagged than you… According to that logic, people traveling from Honolulu to Tokyo must have terrible jet lag with a 19 hour difference, and traveling from Honolulu to Auckland must be worse than space travel for jet lag with it’s 22 hour time difference. Wake up! When you fly from America you have one long day (or night) and the date artificial changes at the date line, but actually according to local solar time, you can never have a greater than 12 hour difference… it only gets less when you pass the other side of the world….
またNavitimeに騙された
土曜日、湘南から横浜の東の方へ行くことになったんだけど、行き先に着く直前、Navitimeによる進むべきの道が階段になっちゃった。ご覧ください↑
次の日、湘南の辻堂の海に行こうとしたら、Navitimeが踏切のないところに右折するように誘導された.
元イギリスで、アメリカでリメイクされたコメディドラマThe Officeにシーズン４に面白い話があるんだけど、馬鹿の社長のマイケルがカーナビの右折という間違った誘導（本当は斜め右だったけど）により、湖に突っ込んじゃう。超受ける。
誰か、Navitimeやカーナビに騙された経験は？？？
Navitimeのルート履歴が消えた
最近Navitimeのインターフェイスが変わったことに気付いた。しかし前のバージョンでは、ルート履歴や検索履歴が全部あったと思う。2ヶ月前に遊びに行ったところに住所が残る。
あす、横浜のちょっと遠いところに行く事になってるけど、ルート履歴が見つからない。。。Navitimeの馬鹿やろう （笑）。
電話して、聞くしかないか。。。そういう20世紀っぽいコミュニケーションが大嫌い。
例えば：
Aさん） 神奈川県横浜市栄区のななり1-13-19
Bさん） のななりはどうやって書くんですか？
Aさん） 野原の「野」に数字の７の漢字にパリの「り」の漢字（か、なんか馬鹿な説明）
Bさん） あ、了解しました。野七里ですね。ありがとうございます。
それでカーナビや携帯ナビがないとまたさらに説明が長くなるしね。。。 このウェブログを書き終わったら、電話しっちゃおう。。
