It’s Not The End … Just Blogging About Nothing

March 7th, 2010 · Tags: Satire

Occasionally, I blog about nothing — dating back to the days before I migrated my content over from a MySpace blog.
Remember MySpace? I digress.
So … “blogs about nothing” — it’s what I know most about.
Well … I was driving home the other night thinking about some friends who have a new baby. That [...]

I was flying on Southwest Airlines recently when I experienced one of those conundrums … or maybe a good news/bad news scenario.

Who don’t like sum good news first: The good news — there was an excellent Wi-Fi , wireless network available — boasting of speeds greater than 54.0 Mbps.

PingWi-Fi To Allow Comments — As If …

February 9th, 2010 · Tags: Satire

So … they say a blog MUST allow readers to chime in and post comments.  I think the attorneys came up with that idea, because of all the potential risk … billable hours and all that.
Well, it has taken me a year, but I have finally warmed up to the idea.  I wonder how it [...]

January 19th, 2010 · Tags: Airports · Cities · Satire · Wi-Fi

What’s a “yahyah” anyway?  Isn’t that from a Rolling Stones’ recording … “Get Yer Yahyahs Out,” or something like that.
Well … we’ve only just begun and already I digress …
What could be better than a Gogo Wi-Fi hotspot on board my sweet American Airlines ride at 40,000 feet?  Just one thing — THREE open seats [...]

January 2nd, 2010 · Tags: Satire · Sports

So … standing there on the sidelines of the Texas Tech, Michigan State game, tweeting my own business when someone rifles a pass over the sidelines.  Thank goodness it skipped before it hit me. LOL … I was like all trying to be cool and not jump or pass out or whatever.  I tried to [...]

Tiger, Sign Your Score Card … As Detractors Come Out Of Woodworks

December 8th, 2009 · Tags: Arts · Cities · Politics · Satire · Sports

Dating back to the time when I first began to interview celebrities, I always stuck with one rule. No autographs. I mean, if you are trying to get a celebrity to interact on a human level during an interview, why would you lower yourself and put them on a pedestal? Pretty much [...]

Exploring Wi-Fi Frontier In Land Of Daniel Boone

December 3rd, 2009 · Tags: Cities · Coffee Shops · Satire · Wi-Fi

As a child, I was fortunate in that my generation, socially, was given the go ahead for boys to play with dolls. We called them action figures so it was okay to spend quality time on imaginary battlefields with GI Joe and all of his dismembered friends.
I was, however, unfortunate in that I realized [...]
