  • Me: Yeah, but she's feeling better now.
  • TJ: Haha, I figured. I'm sure if something was wrong she would have Facebook'd and Tumblr'd and Twittered until the last second about it.

SEOUL, South Korea – A woman in South Korea who tried to pass the written exam for a driver’s license with near-daily attempts since April 2005 has finally succeeded on her 950th time. The aspiring driver spent more than 5 million won ($4,200) in application fees, but until now had failed to score the minimum 60 out of a possible 100 points needed to get behind the wheel for a driving test.

Cha Sa-soon, 68, finally passed the written exam with a score of 60 on Wednesday, said Choi Young-chul, a police official at the drivers’ license agency in Jeonju, 130 miles (210 kilometers) south of Seoul.

Police said Cha took the test hundreds of times, but had no specific total. Local media said she took the test 950 times.

Now she must pass a driving test before getting her license, Choi said.

Repeated calls to Cha seeking comment went unanswered. She told the Korea Times newspaper she needed the license for her vegetable-selling business.

I need to get a large file (16GB) to my Mac from an old PC. I am out of town so I have no external hard drives, cables or a large enough USB drive. Any ideas?

I love when applications seem like they were actually designed by humans.

This might easily be the cutest kitty I’ve ever seen. No joke, I think I’ve just melted.

You know you’re in a college town when an italian restaurant markets its cuisine as “drunk food” and “munchies”.

I wrote this post today for TUAW. It seems to be getting a lot of Diggs and there’s a pretty active discussion going on in the comments. Check it out.
