Ok, there’s no real vote here, but my friend and colleague Ryan Block wrote an excellent blog post nominating himself for the future CEO of Motorola’s beleaguered cell phone division. Now to be fair, I don’t think he’d really enjoy the CEO gig (think of the paperwork!), but I’m sure they could use a Chief […]

OK, to be completely honest, any rioting that has to do with a sporting event is just plain ridiculous. As is plainly obvious, I’m a huge Habs fan, and was totally Tom Cruising (jumping off the couch) during their 5-0 win against the Bruins on Monday. But I was somehow able to restrain myself from […]
Saw an article on TechCrunch this morning regarding Google’s philosophy of “not being evil” which included: This is most likely not a precursor to an official move away from the motto. I imagine it’s little more than a venting of a frustration that Google continues to be held to a promise made six years ago, […]
It’s 2002. Game 6. Montreal leads the series 3-2. It’s 6:30pm on the West Coast and I begin watching my TiVo’d game, timeshifted by about 2.5 hours.

Hey, at least it rhymed… My 15-year-old cousin Jared cowrote, then read aloud an original poem. I’d say it’s pretty impressive for a 15-year-old, but I think it’s pretty impressive for any age! Great job cuz!
Last year I read and listened (online) anxiously to every game leading up until the end of the regular season. And I was there stunned as the Montreal Canadiens were eliminated, mostly at their own doings, by a single point at the final game of the season. Not quite heartbreaking, but most definitely disappointing. The […]
Originally I was preparing to write a number on how much I hate music snobs. You know, the people who glance at your iTunes playlist and make a mocking comment about something you have in there, and then you kinda joke back about “how’d that get in there” but deep down you really like Tiffany’s […]
Hello. This is my last week as a 1K flyer, and I felt it made sense to give you feedback as to why this is the case. First and foremost, this is a deliberate effort on my part. While I absolutely maintain the Mileage Plus program is probably the best of all frequent flyer programs, […]
