Well, I survived one of the most hyped days of my lifetime so far: 06/29/07 iPhone Day. Unlike a lot of lucky people, I had to work yesterday until 3:30pm. My excitement started building around noon and by the time my work day was done, I was out the door and on my way over […]

Am I the only person that is stuck at work this afternoon dreaming of the iPhone? ;o) I keep fearing that a huge line is forming at my local AT&T store. If this actually happens, I’ll be really surprised ;o) I probably won’t head over there until around 5pm. Or maybe 4pm. Maybe I should

I remember this episode of “Roseanne” from years ago. The Connors were sitting at the breakfast able and Dan was yelling at Roseanne. The reason being, she was double dipping into the butter and leaving food crumbs in the bowl. I remember laughing and going, “I know, I hate it when someone does that!” May sound strange, but hey, I get annoyed by seeing someone’s food crumbs in my butter. Here to possibly save “Dan” and me from the crumbs is the One Click Butter Cutter.

Cory at Spire USA contacted me a few weeks ago and asked if I would be interested in reviewing their latest product: The Torq – a laptop backpack. Although I currently use a backpack bag for all my camera gear – the Crumpler Karachi Outpost backpack – and I only have one back, I thought I would give it a try. What could it hurt (aside from my back)?

How many of you keep a flashlight in the glove compartment of your car? Ok, now how many of you ever remember to charge / change
the batteries in those flashlights regularly? Me neither. Kind of defeats the purpose of having it there in the first
place doesn’t it? ;o) Coast Products has just come out with the Auto LED (TT7575CP). Sent to me by Discount LED Lights and Knives, this is a cool little LED flashlight for your vehicle that is always
juiced up and ready for use because it stores in a 12V cigarette lighter socket and charges while your car is running.

I’m not a kid anymore, but I still enjoy playing with
construction toys on occasion. I guess it has something to do with the fact that
I always wanted a LEGO set when I was child,
but never was fortunate enough to receive any. The closest that I got to LEGO
was Tinkertoys,
Lincoln Logs and my
Dad’s old Erector set.
They were all fun to play with, but they weren’t LEGO. Today I’m going to tell
you about ENGINO construction toys. These
award winning toys are from Cyprus, and bear a resemblance to LEGO. Are they
better than the world famous toy, or just a knock off? Let’s see…

The first thought that came to my mind as I was opening the Noreve BlackBerry 8800 Tradition leather case was that of a finely crafted European wallet. The case is well made and very stylish. Definitely something you could slide into the breast pocket of your business suit.

I came home to find my T1 line down… AGAIN (don’t get me started…). So instead of staring at the LEDs on the back of the router with tears in my eyes, I decided to do something more productive… like play Guitar Hero II ;o) It’s the only game I have for my Xbox 360
