Holy Shit, Magsforless Finally Refunded Me!

Way back in June, I wrote a blog post about magsforless ripping me off. Of course, as that post mentions, It had been 17 months since then that I ordered. That means my original order was in January of 2005.

After waiting those 17 months and various emails, I did the blog post. They responded and made promises, but no refund.

So, in September 2007, I did another blog post about it. That time, they promised me a refund.

Well, I can proudly say that on December 20th, 2007 - 3 months after they promised a refund - it mysteriously showed up in my Paypal account!

That’s right! It took them 23 months, but I finally got my refund!

Thanks Magsforless.

My New Years Resolutions

I know this post is a few days late, but my family life has been crazy this holiday season. The cancer is finally catching up to Grandpa and we’ve had family in from everywhere for the past week or 2.

Anyway, it’s a new year - and time for new resolutions. I know I won’t make many of these, but at least I can try.

1.) Lose weight. I’d love to lose about 20lbs. I think I can do this by cutting down my drinking and simply watching what I eat.

2.) Learn to play the guitar. I just picked up a fender acoustic guitar and a chord chart. I already know how to read music, so I’m hoping this won’t be hard.

3.) Get laser eye surgery. I’ve been talking about this for years. I finally have some extra money, so now would be a great time to finally do this.

4.) Launch some new websites. I’ve been pretty stale in this lately, and it’s time I find my motivation to code in my free time again.

That’s all I can think of right now. Pretty boring, I know.

What are your resolutions this year?
