I can confirm that I am finally receiving 4G LTE signal in my house. At -105 dBm or so, I still pulled 10MBps last night and this morning. I am so happy because I never got WiMax in my house even though I am surrounded by WiMax towers.

I got bored while waiting in line to get gas last night at the Van Nuys Costco, so naturally I pull out my phone and conduct a speed test. Naturally, I was shocked, so I did four more. All of the D/L speeds were 25MBps+ but this was the best I pulled down:

I just bought an used HTC EVO LTE off eBay so I could start testing/finding active LTE sites. (Beverly/Poplar in Montebello.) Here is what I pulled down last night:

Exploding watermelon

Baseball cut

bat sh*t

I am going to assume the offer is for a lower-end LTE-capable phone and will be able to take advantage of this AND get a new (better) phone like the Note 3 when renewing my contract. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

Speaking of steaks marinating, does anyone have a good recipe for using Dr. Pepper as a marinade/tenderizing agent. I've seen Coca-Cola, and Dr. Pepper would be that much better.

Lard, manteca, just ask for extra fat, please. Speaking of which, family members of one of my best friends growing up would go out for Chinese food and request extra MSG. Needless to say, they were not the most healthy, physically fit people. AJ Fat = Flavor. I immediately stop talking to anyone who disagrees with that. My favorite (beef) cut is prime rib because of the fat content (and because of the proximity to the bone.) My friend said her favorite cut was filet mignon... I gave her a dirty look. She also said she liked medium well I believe. Medium rare is the best fot beef IMO (even more so for burgers - weird, I know). I think my biggest meat pet peeve is when I get meat that is cooked wrong. Many times in the past I would ask for medium-rare and it come over-cooked. Now I usually ask for rare. Uhh! Back to fat... take pork for instance. My favorite cuts are the fattier ones like bacon and pork butt. I think the idea of eating healthy goes out the door when you go out to eat. Don't get me wrong - you can eat responsibly (e.g. not asking for extra MSG) - but every restaurant has to serve with a good quotient of unhealthiness. If everything was healthy, there would be no flavor; no flavor would result in no business. Thus, limiting eating out is a healthy proposition. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

I walked into the Santa Monica Sprint store and the representive at first didn't know what I was talking about. He read the text of the Terns and Conditions and said Sprint was just preparing to phase out WiMax. The offer, in other words, would be only be available later on. Speaking of WiMax in Santa Monica, it must have been hard to sell WiMax-capable phones because the city prevented the roll out of WiMax towers. Fortunately, LTE towers are not suffering the same fate. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

I prefer to use manteca when referring to lard. Lard sounds so fattening/gross, but if people use exotic/foreign words, it doesn't sound as bad (OK, not really...) LOL

I saw a banner for it behind the plate of the Indians/Rangers game on TV on Wednesday. It looks tempting, but alas my dietary restrictions prevent me from having it.

The contestant on last night's SMOKED episode was using one.
