Writing On The Go

I am an avid writer.  I write for work, for my blog, and for fun. I am also writing a novel, which if it doesn’t kill me will be decent, and hopefully entertaining.  I also have an iPad, and like to do writing while on the go. I don’t always like to lug the laptop [...]

One Night with Roku 2 XD

On Sunday, April 1, 2012, my White Xbox 360 finally gave up the ghost. It powered on with the Red Light of Death and Destruction.  I thought it was a joke, but it wasn’t. A little background, it was not my only Xbox 360, it was our old one.  This “old one” was my media [...]

the New IPad,First Impressions

It’s been a long weekend since friday afternoon when I un-boxed my new iPad.

National Handwriting Day

I just read that today is National Handwriting day.  And I want to say thank you. The image you see there is my impeccably neat cursive handwriting. Taught to me by the wonderful Ms. Colon of St. John Vianney School in the Castle Hill area of the Bronx.  The school closed in 2010 due to cuts.  Some people [...]

Do you listen to Podcasts?

I often found that during a stressful day at work, I needed something to make me focus in on my work and drown out the world around me. I started listening to podcasts in 2005 when the Ricky Gervais Podcast was offered for free by Guardian Unlimited and later subscribed to them on Audible. Since then I [...]
