sony ericsson's p910i looks nice but there's no release date yet. a full keyboard on the flip might convince me to keep the flip attached, unlike the 800 and 900.

i bought a new toothbrush today. i went to london drugs to get bodywash, deodorant and razor blades and they had a brush like my current one (though a different color - green with white aspecting). i'm totally in love with the design of my current one, you see, and didn;t want to replacxe it. so i'm all happy. but what's with canada and not having any aerosol deodorants?

what. the. fuck. i did a "pear upgrade-all" and it first failed because of dependencies. fair enough - stupid that it didn;t automatically install the dependency, but forgivable. but then once finished, pear was broken because it used php 4.2.0 only features. how fucking stupid is that? the people in charge or pear are braindead idiots.
