Well, I haven't updated in months. The simple truth is updating via facebook and twitter is so much easier, that it's almost redundant to have a blog anymore. The quick tweets and status updates, make much more sense then your typical blog.

"A Part of America Died" Somebody killed a policeman today, and a part of America died. A piece of our country he swore to protect, will be buried with him at his side.The suspect that shot him will stand up in court, with counsel demanding his rights.

Everybody is all up in arms about the Motorola Droid, touting it as the new iPhone killer. I stopped by the local Verizon store today to check it out and see how it stacks compared to my iphone 3G. I'm not going to review it, as every tech site out there has done that already ad nasuem. I will say though, that if I weren't already in a contract with AT&T, I'd probably be very tempted to buy

Today I went to throw out my trash and sort my recyclables, like a good New Yorker should. While down there, I noticed something out of the corner of my eye, stacked up in the corner on the table. A huge pile of mint condition comic books! I can't believe my luck, and I'm assuming someone's mom inadvertently tossed out some kids collection, while they are away at college. As they say, one

“Right now, nothing is being done,” says Meteorologist Smith Dharmasaroja, head of Thailand’s National Disaster Warning Center. “And if nothing is ever done? Bangkok will be flooded.” By 2030, Bangkok will lie under 1.5 meters (5 feet) of seawater, Smith says. He is calling for a massive dike spanning the Gulf of Thailand, a $2.8 billion project.read more | digg story

The Superbowl was actually pretty awesome. There were some amazing plays, and a few commercials were actually memorable. Watching some of these commercials makes me realize that there's a lot of talk of the X generation, the Y generation, the "text" generation and all. I'm not sure what they each mean, but I'm pretty happy to be in my generation. I was the born in the 70's, and raised in the

Since we're on the topic of Superbowl commercials, here is another one. This one is from Pepsi, and the reason I singled this one out is because Gina Carrano is in it. If you follow MMA at all, or even the new American Gladiators, Gina Carrano should be a familiar name! Here she is, being portrayed as this generations Bruce Lee. While I think she's great, I'm not sure she's got quite the same

I've been playing around with this website quite a bit, and I tell you, it's not bad. It seems to be actually run by major studio networks (well at least NBC), and is ad driven. The ads aren't too bad, and in fact less then what you see when watching tv. The sound is good, and some movies have a 480 resolution setting, which is pretty clear. There doesn't seem to be a way to watch this on the

Seriously. Are they kidding. No matter how hot Kate Beckingsale is going to look in that leather outfit, I still think the 3rd installment in this movie trilogy is going to suck. Prequels as a general rule suck. Part of the allure of the original Underworld was the meld of the old world supernatural creatures with the modern day high tech gadgetry. The prequel is hundreds of years in the future

Remember the Soulja Boy video where he was hanging out at his house, and six thugs armed with pistols and AK-47s busted in and robbed the place? Wait...that really happened. The incident took place at Soulja Boy's home Dec. 30. No one was injured. In a video released the next day, two masked dudes took credit and said there was only one weapon.read more | digg story

Apple was a busy company in 2008. Over the past twelve months, the number of Apple-branded products on the street has become so broad and ubiquitous that it's hard to go a day without seeing evidence of it, even if you're not a Mac, iPhone or iPod owner.read more | digg story

If you’re a Buffet Amateur like me, your pupils dilate and your mouth starts watering as soon as you spot the long table full of steam trays and criss-crossed table cloths. Since then I’ve been tutored on the art of mastering the all-you-can-eat buffet. Everybody’s got their own techniques, but here’s what I’ve learned over the years.read more | digg story

I haven't had much time to update this blog. It's not because I'm busier then before, but because there are so many social networks out there I don't have time to use them all. I'm a big fan of facebook now, so mostly I'll update there in the form of my status. I also use Loopt, which works well in conjunction with Facebook. I'm new to twitter, but I'm loving that as well.

The WASP knife is basically a knife with a compressed air cartridge built into the handle. When you stab something (like a person), you push a button and the compressed air fills the cavity and practically freezes the surronding tissue. Basically it will really fuck you up. If you are in Law enforcement, be wary of this. A regular knife in the wrong hands is bad enough. This thing is a

It's been a long time since I've owned a "real" digital camera. Most of the pictures you see on this blog are either from my Treo 700p, which has done a pretty good job so far. Otherwise I simply download them off the web from websites (such as the above photo of my new camera) or from friends who send pictures from services such as snapfish or kodak. Now however, I have a brand new toy. This

Well you know I don't need an excuse to buy new gadgets especially when it's video game. I have a long flight ahead of me, so I figured I'd better get some entertainment in case I don't like any of the movies on board. I picked up a used copy of Gods of War:Chains of Olympus. It's everything it's cracked up to be. I haven't enjoyed a game this much in a long time (maybe since Halo) on the

Go see this movie. Now. It's great. A little tip though. Stay after the credits, you will be rewarded. If you follow Marvel Comics, you'll enjoy the clip at the end. If you don't, you'll be a little confused.

Tempust fugit, latin for "time flies". It's so true. I feel it was only a weeks ago that we welcomed young Danielle into the world, and here we are already, her 1st birthday! It was great to see so many of the old gang again. It's funny cause we all look exactly the same just a little bit older, a little grayer and we move a tad bit slower! Of course at each outing, there are more and more

My first Opera ever, and surprisingly, I loved it! Here's the gang out in support of Maria Todaro, our resident kick boxer/Opera singer! As usual she kicks ass (pun intended)! We saw her show at the John Jay College Theatre, and were thouroughly impressed with both the show and the performance of all the actors! Cool note, they had a cake at the end of the performance, shaped to look like the

It was a long time coming, but Ting finally tied the knot. The wedding was a lot of fun and we did everything from the "electric slide" to traditional thai (laotion) style dancing. I of course continued with my "shadow boxing" dance style, which is very easy to do, but slightly dangerous for your dance partners! Ting congratulations, and we'll certainly miss you when you move off to Iowa!

Kwame's first go at a bona fide karate tournament was a rousing success! It seemed like the cards were stacked against him when he found out there weren't going to be enough people in his division to compete against, so he was forced to compete one division up in the brown belt division. Although outranked, Kwame was far from out classed and competed easily in this higher division.Kwame did a
