Apple deleted my AskDave! app.

I haven't been able to get ahold of the guy who helped me develop it for years, so I guess it's gone gone gone. Who knows though, perhaps one day when I have some spare time (ha ha ha!) I'll take up iPhone app development and re-do it so it is acceptable to Apple's latest standards.

Until then... a moment of silence for the passing of an app never truly appreciated in its time...

If you have it one your phone, it still seems to work okay. Just don't delete it or you may not ever see it again.

For those who took time to "Ask Me Anything" this week, here are your answers.

As an FYI, I only had to delete one question (because it was about another person and not directed to me). This was unexpected, as I thought going 100% anonymous would have invited a lot of hateful crap. As it were, I only got a few questions by people who thought they were asking hateful crap. Thanks for surprising me in a good way, internet!

1. What's a travel experience you would love to do, but probably won't ever do? That would have to be this.
2. What's your biggest regret? Letting fear keep me from taking a shot at something I really wanted.
3. How can you afford to travel so much? I work non-stop... and a big chunk of it is work-related.
4. Which meat do you miss most since becoming a vegetarian? NOT bacon. Probably pepperoni.
5. How many more tattoos do you think you'll get? Seven. But I'm secretly hoping a lot more than that. I love them.
6. Who do you want for president in 2015? Someone believing in personal freedoms like this guy or like this gal. Everything else is window dressing now-a-days.
7. If you won a 100 million dollar lottery, would you keep working? Unless it's for charity, fuck no.
8. What's the battery level on your phone? 47%
9. When are you going to accept the fact that you're into dudes? Maybe something will change one day to make this true, but right now that's not what I'm attracted to.
10. Are you as big as an asshole in person as you are online? If put into a situation where I need to be an asshole... absolutely yes, asshole.
11. Blogging is dying off how much longer will you go? I honestly don't know. Right now I have no plans to stop. Maybe tomorrow I'll feel otherwise and hang it up. Or twenty years from now.
12. What's the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to you? I don't embarrass easily, so this is a tough one. I was pretty embarrassed when I discovered that the ass had been torn out of a pair of shorts I was wearing while drunk (and probably going commando) in the Bahamas.
13. What's something about you that you haven't told anybody before? I've been blogging for over a decade...I doubt there's much left that qualifies. If I think of anything interesting, I'll let you know.

It's the easiest blog post of the year, when I get to re-visit all my entries for the past 365 days and see just how pointless and futile my life really is! Much like last year, a lot of my time was spent traveling. I racked up 164,000 air miles on seven airlines. Unlike last year, I had only minimal flight delays and cancellations, which was a pleasant surprise.
