You’re Welcome
Wednesday, October 24th, 2007Whenever my son sneezes and you say "Bless you" to him, he replies, "You're welcome". Obviously, the correct response is "Thank you". It makes me laugh every time. And, of course, I don't correct him.

FiOStrations
Monday, October 22nd, 2007I have Verizon for almost every utility imaginable. If they offered electricity and water, I'd probably get it from Verizon (ahh -- the convenience of "one-bill").

iPod’s Dead. Now What? Part III

For Air Rushing Through
Saturday, October 13th, 2007A little over fifteen years ago, Van Halen released the album titled "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge".

iPod’s Dead. What Now?
Thursday, October 11th, 2007My iPod is dead -- or almost dead. It's a 3rd generation 15 GB iPod that I got in the summer of 2003. Just about everytime I try to transfer music to it, iTunes locks up. Eventually, I get an iTunes error that says that a problem occurred. Last night, ...
Pushing Daisies
Thursday, October 4th, 2007All spring and summer, I had been reading and reading and reading about Pushing Daisies, a new TV show on ABC. I had been reading that it was the highest scoring show ever in focus groups -- or something like that. I had been reading that the show is getting ...
