Why? Because that's where I've been since early Monday. I'm hoping I'll be done here tomorrow, I have no idea where I'll be going the rest of the week. Personally, I'd like to go home and chill with the wife and baby.
BTW, I went to Fitzgerald's Casino in Tunica last night. Had to get in some Black Jack. I lost 90 bucks. Had to quit and get back to the hotel, oh well, I'l get my money back eventually.
The company I've been slaving for finally sent my laptop and Blackberry phone! YES!
This laptop has everything a road warrior could possibly want and I absolutely LOVE THE BLACKBERRY! This phone is so cool, it will never leave my sight!!!
Hope everybody's chillin', and things are aight!

[glow=red,2,300]WATCH OUT TF[/glow]
Chris Claypool was addicted to his BlackBerry wireless handheld. Like many users, he never thought twice about pecking away at lightning speed, replying to a wave of e-mails from clients around the globe. Last year, the 37-year-old agricultural sales director from Post Falls, Idaho, noticed a throbbing sensation in this thumbs whenever he typed.
He switched to tapping with his index finger, then his middle digit and finally his pinky. But his thumbs pained him to the point where he can't even press the buttons on his TV remote control.
After months of aching, Claypool took a break. Now he only uses his BlackBerry to send short messages — typing with the tip of a pencil eraser whenever his thumbs get sore.
"It affects business because I can't whack away on my BlackBerry like I used to," he said. "It's just too painful."
Repetitive motion injuries, which have long afflicted desktop and laptop computer users, are invading the mobile handheld world.
There's even an informal name for the malady — "BlackBerry Thumb" — a catch-all phrase that describes a repetitive stress injury of the thumb as a result of overusing small gadget keypads.
Business executives and tech-savvy consumers are increasingly using BlackBerries, Treos, Sidekicks and other devices with miniature keyboards designed for thumb-tapping to stay connected while on the go.

See...that's the problem with people. Note the quote: "It affects business because I can't whack away on my BlackBerry like I used to," he said. "It's just too painful." Like my momma use to say....If you whack it too much you will either go blind, or have "Blackberry Thumbs"!....errr...something like that.  TFADMIN |
