interesting place, indeed.
Why I went straight home from work :)
Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who
has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was,
since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He
will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing
when to come in out of the rain; Why the early bird gets the worm; Life
isn't always fair; and Maybe it was my fault..
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more
than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in
charge).
His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but
overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy
charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended
from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for
reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the
job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly
children.
It declined even further when schools were required to get parental
consent to administer sun lotion or an Aspirin to a student; but could
not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an
abortion.
Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses;
and criminals received better treatment than their victims.
Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a
burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.
Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to
realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled some in her
lap, and was promptly awarded a cash settlement.
Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by
his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son,
Reason.
He is survived by entities known as:
I Know My Rights
I Want It Now
Someone Else Is To Blame
I'm A Victim
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.
If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

Wave in iPhone's Safari. I was not hoping anything.
It was expected that I got error message which said that my browser
was not compatible. I went ahead ignoring the warning and so excited
to see how Google Wave appearing on my screen and it appeared in
mobile format.
Instead of composing new message or mail, you compose new wave. The first line in the wave becomes the subject and the rest followed by content. Instead of adding to address, you add contact as "audience". The difference shows when you have your contact online at the same time and you can interact directly. You can either create a new message/wave or edit the same wave together.
At the moment I still cannot use the extensions, attach files, even invite others. So I have not explore all functionality of Google Wave as yet. More to follow, I guess.
