Why I Love Apple
Last week my Powerbook turned off and wouldn’t turn on. It was unplugged and running off battery power, so I plugged it in and the computer turned on. After a few tests, I realized the battery was bad. So I went down to my local Apple store here in Miami and sought to get my problem fixed. The line was long at the Genius Bar, so I hung out and made an appointment. Shortly after, I saw the store manager, Brian, whom I had gotten to know from my many trips to the store and he asked what was up … Read More
Amazon Prime
After placing my most recent amazon.com order today, I started thinking back to the glory days. The days when I had a free trial of amazon prime, the amazing program that gives you free 2-day shipping and $3.99 overnight delivery. But it’s $79 a year and I’m just too cheap to pay that, so when the trial ran out, so did my fun. But here’s what I’m thinking: Amazon Prime should be available for free to all great Amazon.com customers. If you spend a certain amount per year on stuff, you should be rewarded by being given entrance into this … Read More

Going Live…
We’re doing a redesign of our website that should be up in the next month. One of things that’s important to me is that the website be “Live” when you go live. Too many times we put up a new site 1/2 baked and lose the impact of the new look because of the infamous “under construction” or “Coming soon” text. My advice: don’t change over until your site is done. That way, people won’t miss the old site. They’ll just love the new one.
Maybe this is why the Yankees can’t win
This from espn.com: With the hiring of Piniella, it is understood that the Cubs will expand their payroll, which was close to $100 million in 2006. Depending on how much they want to spend, the Cubs are one of the few teams capable of taking on (Alex) Rodriguez’s salary. He is owed $95 million for the remaining four years of the landmark 10-year, $252 million deal, he signed with Texas. The Yankees are responsible for paying $66.6 million; the Rangers are paying the other $28.4 million. Need I say more?
The Perfect Gift?
Carey said she knew what she was getting me for my birthday. Then she showed me the ad. It’s awesome! Kiss Cologne! The ad had a sample. It smells horrible. I’m under the impression that it’s going to take more than one spray of this before they’re be calling you “Dr. Love”.
Tipping Etiquette
OK, let me first say that I’m a 20% tipper when I go to eat at a restaurant. I’m also a generous tipper when someone delivers food to my house (I used to do this for a living when I was in Bible College, so I feel their pain). But here’s the gray area for me: Do you tip when you get curbside service at Outback (or another place that offers a similar type of service)? 2nd question: Do you tip when you have to go inside the restaurant and pick the food up at the bar? Help me Obi-Wan … Read More
A Book for those who have it all figured out
Props to Wes for the pic.
They’re GGGRRRREAT!
The Tigers in the World Series! Can you say absolute domination? The A’s didn’t even stand a chance. Quite honestly, this is what I thought would happen to them against the Twins. But I’m happy for the Tigers. 13 straight losing seasons. The last couple of seasons have been no picnic either. I don’t think either NL team has a chance against the Tigers. Then again I picked every team that got eliminated, so what do I know?
