BlackBerry settlement and other

So, the BlackBerry patent lawsuit that I was following seems to have come to a settlement, which is ultimately quite good and was predictable, but man wouldn't it have been a trip to see everyone of the the "CrackBerry" owners freak out when they weren't able to send and receive e-mail instantly. I forgot my cell phone at home yesterday and I know how stir-crazy I've been without my baby. Not much else to say about BlackBerry except that I thought they had the upper hand and would've settled closer to the 450 million that was expected last year. C'est la vie.

In other news, I've been busy like the little worker bee that I am. Was supposed to see both The Strokes and Belle & Sebastian, but ended up only being able to make the B&S show, which was really awesome. The New Pornographers opened for them and their sound was a little poppy, but not bad either. I like bands that have at least one girl in them.

This weekend should be good times. Jersey last night, lunch today at an awesome Thai place. Then this afternoon I'm going to be photographed and I think interviewed about being multi-racial for a student at Parson's. I'll let you all know when it's on exhibit in case you want to see some ethnic art. Tonight I'm going to a coworker's birthday and tomorrow we might see a movie before the Oscars. Ah, and my law school applications are under review from various schools. Wish me luck folks.
