The Top 5.1 Android Apps I Can’t Live Without

I love my android phone, but I’ve noticed that all of my friends and family keep asking me about suggestions for apps and setting up their phones and so on… So, here is my list of the Top 5 Android Apps I can’t live without:
1. Bedside (paid): This handy application does one thing so well, [...]

Good Bye, Chase, I Wish I Would Miss You.

Dear Chase,
It is with great sadness that I am forced to write you this letter. I enjoyed our relationship together for the past year. But, you see, since you took the TARP money from the taxpayers of the United States to go on a bank-buying spree, you’ve become so abusive to me that I began [...]

Microsoft Is Changing The Game

I’m not necessarily a big Microsoft fan. I’ve often felt they are a little out of touch with consumers. Today, however, Microsoft unveiled Windows Phone 7 Series. Unlike the iPhone, Palm, Blackberry, and Android phones, Microsoft sat down and did some serious thinking about how people actually use technology (or, more importantly, how they WOULD actually [...]

My 2010 Goals (Progress Report)

You probably remember my earlier post about setting goals and resolutions for the New Year, and I thought I would give you a quick update on some things.

Google’s Nexus One: Savior or Hype?

Google’s Nexus One Device (super-smart phone) has arrived. The question is whether it is worth it or not. Engadget provided a really great review, so I won’t go into a complete review here.

First, I purchased a pair of Skechers Men’s Shape Ups Overhaul Lace Up and I started using them today along with intentionally parking far away [...]

5 Ways To Save GM

Recently, one of my friends started his long-shot campaign to become GM’s next CEO. His approach got me mulling over the fate of General Motors and Ed Whitacre’s leadership of the “Great CEO Search”. I, of course, did all of my thinking while engaged in a marathon drive from Los Angeles, CA to Coeur d’Alene, [...]

Dear House: The People Are Knocking

I have to tell you: I’m tired of American politics. I don’t watch the news or read the newspaper anymore because I find that I just get frustrated and angry over things that I apparently have no control over. Big corporations and special interested and lobbyists and political parties have hijacked our government and everyone [...]

Someone Seems To Get It At Ford

I visited the 2009 Los Angeles International Auto Show this past weekend. Given how much the automotive industry has been in the news lately, and how long it’s been since I’ve been to an auto show, I thought I would share with you what I discovered. (Editor’s Note: This is an unsolicited review, and I [...]
