It came this morning. Unfortunately, while I had been told it was “pretty fantastic”, the app that got released is anything but. As a result, Google quickly became <a href="http://techcrunch.com/2011/11/02/new-gmail-app-for-iphone-is-unusable-shows-errors-on-launch/">the laughing stock of the Internet</a> for a few hours this morning.

Wow, it’s amazing how time moves so quickly. She’s not crawling yet, but she successfully flopped onto her belly from this sitting position.</p> <p>We think she’s starting to teethe. There appears to be a little something in her front lower jaw. She seems OK with what is going on, only becoming fussy every once in a while. Also, she’s been amazing in sleeping through the night. This makes mommy and daddy very happy in the morning.</p> <p>Happy eight months Mia!</p> <p>This photo was taken the morning of March 2, 2011.</p>http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/3602761804http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/3602761804Wed, 02 Mar 2011 09:47:37 -0800Mia Izobelgpomwgpoyw<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lh68mtNB0D1qzoaqio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://bohemea.tumblr.com/post/3510475715">bohemea</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Shirley Manson & Debbie Harry by Frank W Ockenfels 3</p> </blockquote>http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/3513357706http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/3513357706Fri, 25 Feb 2011 17:31:23 -0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lf6gixz3Vo1qze0z6o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I don’t think I’ll be trying the “Trenta” anytime soon.</p> <p>(via <a href="http://links.laughingsquid.com/post/2797100093/starbucks-introduces-its-largest-size-drink-the">laughingsquid</a>):</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://laughingsquid.com/starbucks-introduces-its-largest-size-drink-the-trenta/">Starbucks Introduces Its Largest Size Drink: The Trenta</a></p> </blockquote>http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/2797227981http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/2797227981Mon, 17 Jan 2011 10:02:24 -0800<a href="http://danhacker.tumblr.com/post/2715961542/first-look-rooney-mara-as-lisbeth-in-girl-with-the-drago">Digital Collage: First Look | Rooney Mara as Lisbeth in David Fincher's 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'</a>: <p><span class="tumblr_blog">I’m still not convinced that Fincher sticking with Swedish accents will work.<br/></span></p> <p><a href="http://danhacker.tumblr.com/post/2715961542/first-look-rooney-mara-as-lisbeth-in-girl-with-the-drago">(via danhacker</a>):</p> <blockquote> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lexagych091qz8nlp.jpg"/></p> <p><a href="http://www.wmagazine.com/celebrities/2011/02/rooney_mara_girl_with_the_dragon_tattoo_film">W Magazine</a> has posted the first images of <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1913734/">Rooney Mara</a> as Lisbeth Salander in David Fincher’s American adaption of ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tatoo’.</p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lexav2y40k1qz8nlp.jpg"/></p> <p>Rooney Mara certainly looks less intimidating than <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0636426/">Noomi Rapace</a> did in the Swedish version, but still keeping enough of the punked out…</p> </blockquote>http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/2716239817http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/2716239817Wed, 12 Jan 2011 11:11:14 -0800<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldg10yB3jW1qz4td9o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>View from the London Eye (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am">instagram</a>)</p>http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/2317962226http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/2317962226Tue, 14 Dec 2010 16:22:12 -0800<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_la7500OCSe1qzoyito1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>She didn’t really say this now, did she?</p> <p>(via <a href="http://marcovhv.tumblr.com/post/1337291340/sure-wish-there-was-orgy-school-in-my-time-p">marcovhv</a>):</p> <blockquote> <p>Sure wish there was ‘orgy school’ in my time :P</p> </blockquote>http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/1337567303http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/1337567303Sun, 17 Oct 2010 11:28:18 -0700polipolitics<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l8fxh3z1Tp1qz4td9o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><strong>Fall TV Preview</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.hollywood.com/feature/2010_Fall_TV_Preview/7141184">Hollywood.com</a> has a breakdown of what premieres when.  Can’t wait until the new fall season.</p>http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/1087425101http://verbal.tumblr.com/post/1087425101Wed, 08 Sep 2010 11:17:27 -0700televisiontelevision<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l6e49eAInM1qz9z1no1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Interesting Nike ad for women.
