I am a lefty. This is my right hand trying to write things – 10 lines a day.
Slowly getting more comfortable with writing with my right.
The letters k, x, and h are hard.
Last line doesn’t seem too bad.

Right-Handed Writing – Day 3
I am a lefty. This is my right hand trying to write things – 10 lines a day.
Both fickle dwarves jinx my pig quiz The letters j, g, and q are hard.
Writing when the coil of the notebook is in the way is annoying.
The 4th line seems to have the best “both” and “fickle.” -
Right-Handed Writing – Day 2
I am a lefty. This is my right hand trying to write things – 10 lines a day.
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. *Last line is written with my left hand Writing smaller seems to help a little.
The letters g, r, s, and y are hard.
The numbers 2 and 3 are also hard. -
Right-Handed Writing – Day 1
I am a lefty. This is my right hand trying to write things – 10 lines a day.
Be more ambidextrous instead of mixed handed Curves and straight lines are hard.
I don’t know how to hold a pen comfortably in my right hand.
Maybe I should have started with the alphabet.
Now I won’t get any ink/lead on my hand. -
My Disappointing Ray-Ban RMA/Warranty Experience
Product: Ray-Ban RB3183 004/82 63-15 3P
Problem: Crack in lens near nose pad screw (see photo)
Resolution time: 37 business days; September 30, 2014 – November 21, 2014September 30, 2014 – Noticed a crack in the right lens
The last time I used my sunglasses was in Vegas and I’m fairly certain that there was nothing wrong with it back then. In any case, I sent out an e-mail to Ray Ban/Luxottica’s Warranty Department to see if they could replace the lenses under warranty. I bought the sunglasses from Amazon earlier in the summer (June 26, to be precise) so I’ve only had the sunglasses for about 3 months.

Oh telemarketers! – Round 2
Those wonderful telemarketers from Air Duct Cleaning called again. His name was Sam Paul this time.
Transcript:
Sam Paul: Hi. This is Sam Paul from Air Duct Solutions. How are you today?
Me: Hi. Good.
…
Me: I’m kind of busy at the moment, could I get your phone number to call you back?
Sam: Sure, it’s *insert fake number here*
Me: So it’s *insert fake number here*, right? (It can’t be this easy.)
Sam: Yes. That’s correct.
Me: Alright, thanks. Could I also get your company’s address?
Sam: *chuckle* Sir, why do you want my address?
(At this point, I’m just trying to see what kind of fake address he’s going to give me. He tries to say some random roads plus a number at the end. Sounds real to me!)
Me: Not your address, your company’s address.
Sam: It’s in Scarborough.
Me: Where in Scarborough?
Sam: Sir, why do you want the address?
…
Sam: Sir, I know you weren’t interested so I gave you a fake number and address.
Me: So why do you do this then?
Sam: Sir, my company pays $5000 for the Do Not Call list.At least he was honest about giving me a fake number and address. I don’t know if his other statement is true or not though. =\
If telemarketers aren’t afraid of the penalties enforced by the CRTC, what purpose does the DNCL serve? If people can then pay X dollars to get a copy of the DNCL, it basically means I’ve signed up to a list of phone numbers that will be called, thereby making the DNCL utterly useless. Oh, how I wish the CRTC was actually useful.
Round 1 can be viewed here.

Oh telemarketers!
I received a call today from someone at Air Duct Cleaning and here is a transcript:
Man with a thick brown accent: Air Duct Cleaning. My name is Jack.
Me: Hi. What’s your phone number?
‘Jack‘: But why?
Me: What’s your phone number?
‘Jack‘: But why?
*repeat x 3*
Me: What’s your last name?
‘Jack‘: But why?
Me: What’s your last name?
‘Jack‘: But why?
Me: What’s your last name?
‘Jack’ either tries to make up a last name or can’t say my last name. Jack gets confused and hangs up.I believe I won this time. (more…)
