Brett Favre is Unreal

As you probably have not ascertained from this blog, I am a massive NFL fan. I am a lifelong New York Giants fan, and so are my wife and my sons and most of my extended family. However, Brett Favre is a crybaby.
His constant back and forth “I want to play, I want to retire” [...]

Twitter: What do you think?

I love Twitter, don’t get me wrong. It can be a fantastic tool for quickly blasting something out really quickly to a lot of people. There are plenty of people using it, and you can update it from any phone that can text message.
Twitter definitely seems that the worst of the problem is over. [...]

The Problem with Robots

As many futurists throughout time have thought, sooner or later the world will be ran by robots. I cannot claim to be a futurist, hell, I have a hard enough time living properly in the present. However, I see many problems with either a world entirely of robots, or a world where the robots are [...]

God May Hate You, but Esteban Thinks You’re Sexy

Until this morning that is.
Now, I can [...]

Blech

For all of us in the Northeast US, you know we are in the middle of a heat wave and it’s not fun at all. I haven’t really done a whole lot in front of the computer while it has been this hot.

I have mostly completed my tutorial on setting up Cobian Backup 9, [...]

Microsoft: You Could Not Pay Me Enough To Use Your Search Engine

First you kill XP, the only good operating system you ever made. Live Mesh is just a vague name for services they already offer. Your CEO is a raving lunatic. You are precipitously losing market share to Apple. The Zune is a joke.
There is not enough money in the world for me to use [...]

Man-pregnancy or how i got fat since high school

In high school, I was about 125 pounds soaking wet. I stayed slim during college as well, and also the period of time between college and marriage/fatherhood. As I spent all my time at either work or home when my older son was young, I was a lot more sedentary than I was. I started [...]
