Introducing the Hipster PDA… The latest in wood pulp technology.
A couple of weeks ago there were some positive developments with Flagship Cinemas. I haven’t gotten around to blogging them yet. I will before too long.(in reference to this post)
One week ago tonight during game 4 of the ALCS, I was watching the game on Fox. But I had turned down the sound in order to listen to the radio call of Joe Castiglione and Jerry Trupiano on the Red Sox Radio Network.The local station is WRKD 1450, which used to be a locally […]
I sure hope Virginia did.
Is A. Rod. a curse for any team he’s on?

“I’m excited, very excited. And hopefully drunk in a couple of hours.”Gotta love these guys.
I hope that George W. Bush will win the election. (Actually I hope that we can all wake up on November 3rd, and know SOMEBODY has won, but that’s another story) No candidate can carry on the War on Terror better that Bush will, yet I feel that I cannot vote for him. He, along […]
You know what I find worse than finding out someone doesn’t vote? That they try to justify it as a principled stand.Stand against what? How does not voting de-legitimize the state?

This couple has taken up theater vigilantism.This guy has had to deal with drunks and screaming babies… (sounds like an airline complaint, not a theater gripe).And here’s a set of “Movie Manners courtesy cards” that quietly encourage movie-goers to be quiet themselves. I may buy a couple of sets… I wonder if they have discounts […]
Tonight’s the third and final Presidential debate.Sure enough there will be plenty of crowing about who won or lost this debate, as well as the whole debate series. This is the wrong focus, and it is ultimately irrelevant. The debates serve as a ground for pitting ideas against each other and see how well they […]
So, why the sudden interest in blogging tools and ease of use?Because I want to blog more. I want to write more.If I want to consider myself a writer. I darn well better write and not just think about writing. I probably had hundreds of topics I could have blogged about at one time or […]
I’m amazed at how easily some people blog.At a certain point the blogging tools usually get in the way of efficient blogging.Now don’t get me wrong , I love Blogger. It does as a good a job on creating an efficient user interface as anyone. It’s just that, being a web interface, it requires a […]
