Yeah, I upgraded to WordPress 2.8 and updated all of my plug-ins. Yeah, that includes Viper’s Video Quicktags, which I had extremely modified for my blog. So, video is busted. I dunno when I’ll fix it. More important things are going on in my life right now. (see previous entry)
My wife and I have been separated since April. I can live with that. It was something that was necessary. Changes have been made, we’re both happier. But getting to “happier”… almost didn’t happen.
There are so truly evil, mean, cruel, twisted fncks out there and unfortunately my wife has had one of those such folks as a “friend” for the past few years. Since February at least and especially since April he has done nothing but make her and myself absolutely miserable. He claims that living 1000 miles away makes anything he could do meaningless. Ha! The man has hurt, scared, terrified, used, and in many ways damaged my wife. If I were to ever see this man face to face… it would not be pretty. His life is screwed up and he’s now having fun screwing with others.
You are an evil, evil man. You will probably never read this post. That’s all fine with me. I’d rather not speak to or deal with you in any way and my wife… she’s finally realized your true ways. Your “help” has been nothing but costly to her and myself.
If things weren’t illegal, well… that didn’t stop you, but it will me. People like you are… I don’t know what to say. I’m just glad that things are calming down and improving, no thanks to you.
You are a true bastard. No wonder your wife hates you. Yet you blame her. Ha! I’d like to meet her. I bet her version of the married life with you is extremely different from yours. There’s always three versions– yours, theirs and the truth. What’s the truth?
I don’t really care. I’m just happy. So is my wife. HAPPY! And you couldn’t stop it. 
Funny thing, to me, anyway… the Nintendo DSi has launched in the US and I had no idea until this evening. Mass appeal in this house, apparently. Maybe some day I’ll get one, but I’m still not sure why I’d “upgrade” to the DSi. What will Nintendo do to get me to feel the desire to leave my DS behind for a DSi?
I purchased a Plantronics Discovery 925 (Black) Bluetooth headset from N1 Wireless on March 18th through Google Checkout. It was to be a gift for my wife. My order arrived on March 23rd. Upon opening the shipping package it was immediately obvious that two of the ear tips were missing. The one, single ear tip included was the large size. Being that the Bluetooth headset was for my wife the large ear tip was “absolute fail”. So… the Plantronics Discovery 925 works fine, but she can’t use it, because of the missing small and medium gel ear tips… didn’t know which would be the right fit for her but the large was a no-go so it was a worthless, totally unusable headset. Oh, I don’t have a Bluetooth phone (yet) so I couldn’t simply use the headset with my phone and get her another headset.
I contacted N1 Wireless on March 23rd through Google Checkout to inquire about the missing ear tips. No response. Heck, I tried contacting them through Google Checkout again a few hours later to be more clear about my inquiry since I had rechecked their online catalog to verify that the item I purchased from them was indeed supposed to ship with small, medium and large ear tips. No response. I waited until March 28th to contact N1 Wireless again. I also contacted Google Checkout about my issue. A few days later I got a short response– call us on the phone to discuss the issue. Er, that’s moving completely away from the whole customer anonymity that Google Checkout stands by (supposedly).
But I call anyway. Whoa! Big mistake. All I got was the run-around and lies and all sorts of crap. What I didn’t get was any sort of solution to the missing ear tips.
This whole thing is a GIANT mark against N1 Wireless… but also Google Checkout. Both seriously failed on me. I make online purchases on a regular basis and I’ve never had to deal with such a load of BS before this.
AVOID N1 WIRELESS AT ALL COSTS!
By the way… the Plantronics Discovery 925 is an awesome BlueTooth headset. I ordered another one from Amazon last Sunday through a Gold Box deal. I know, I know… I don’t even have a Bluetooth phone but I’m shopping for one and want one yesterday. The Amazon order was the full package INCLUDING all three ear tips– and $5 cheaper than N1 Wireless. Again, the Plantronics Discovery 925 rocks. Amazon rocks. N1 Wireless sucks donkey rear.
Here are more people with complaints. Actually, just a small sampling of what I found through Google. I should have done this search earlier, before my purchase, but I trusted Google Checkout. Not so much any more…
