Reset

Yea!

The iPhone is not broken! Now that I know the "reset" secret that requires that I push down two buttons indefinitely, it is fixed. Kudos to the AT&T store little guy that was patient and kind making me NOT feel like an idiot for not consulting my manual for advice.

$0 spent on fixing it. All cleaning will now take place with the cover on the phone!

Don't we all wish we could just hit two little buttons to reset our lives?

Kudos to Costco - cookie recall

Kudos to Costco because they sent me a voicemail and a letter telling me to bring back the raw Toll House cookie dough!

No questions asked, they just took it back.

I've never been pursued this much for a refund, but I now have a lot of confidence in the "system" Costco uses for their logistics and customer tracking.

Plus, I now have $7.99 in my pocket and I had eaten a batch or two of cookies from that big raw cookie dough tube. So, it was a win-win.

Kudos to Hilary Clinton

Actually, I can't believe I'm writing this entry, but some things must be acknowledged.

I received this automatic email from CNN on Saturday:

-- Hilary Clinton suspends campaign, endorses Barack Obama for president

I've not been a Hilary fan, but can anyone deny that this woman can fight, endure, debate, defend, etc. with the best of them? She really is quite the contender!

It is also refreshing that we are in a point in time where black, white, women, men, Hispanic, Mormon, war hero, UFO believer, evangelical, old, young, etc. can all run for president. Granted, some of these (race, gender, age) are things that we have no control over. In fact, I've decided that I should select someone to vote based upon things they choose for themselves and not what they are/are not born with, but even so it is great that this barrier has either been overcome or is in process.

So, even though I'm more likely than most people I know to vote Republican, kudos to Hilary for a fight well fought and the will to keep going even when I would talk to the tv and tell her to give it up. Maybe I should stop listening to the naysayers in my life and take some advice from her.
