Music and its Meaning

It’s good to have on in the background while you are working on something else. It can relax you. It can help pass the time, or it can get you on your feet and start dancing. In a lot of cases, memories, events, or stories can be tied to a specific song. If you’re a married person [...]

Windows Phone 7: A Tough Decision

Last year I posted a blog titled “My Smartphone Journey” (which can be read here). Now that I am eligible for my upgrade with AT&T, the question is not what type of phone to get, because I know that answer. I have already eliminated iPhone and Android, and I’m firmly in the camp of Windows [...]

It’s 2012 and AiS220 is Back bay-bay!

Well hello again. It’s been a long time. I think almost four months if my math is right. This isn’t going to be a post of excuses or a promise of updates. What this post is going to convey is me dipping my toes back in the waters of the blogosphere for the new year. [...]

MLB Offseason 2011-12

TTT: Sports Franchises I’d Like to Own

     10. Carolina Panthers/Jacksonville Jaguars (tie/bonus team) I think these two teams could benefit from a benefactor with unlimited funds. Sure, there’s a salary cap in the NFL, but I would hire a “cap guru” to work on crunching the numbers and that goes for the Jets (see below) as well. 9. Toronto Blue Jays [...]

Thursday Top Ten(Nine): Interesting Fall TV

Okay, technically it’s only a “top nine” list, but that’s because I couldn’t bring myself to falsely add a tenth show to this list when I really don’t have one. I’m not going to make something up to get an even number. Anyway, this list is being published as we head into the upcoming premiere [...]

Another Update on the Blog

I just wanted to take a moment to update my readers on what was supposed to be my self-imposed schedule, and what will actually occur from now through the foreseeable future. Originally my plan was to make at least one post a day, Monday through Friday. However, I quickly realized that due to “real life” getting [...]

  Now this seems like a neat trick, but is it a camera trick? I wonder if this is real. Discuss!
