iPad Initial Thoughts

Alright, so yesterday I talked a little bit about Apple’s big announcement prior to the actual press event.  As predicted, Apple’s new “big thing” was a tablet.  They named it the “iPad” which has created quite a few jokes already, but this will wear off as the device becomes a reality.  So what are my [...]

Republican Scott Brown Only Trails by 9 Points for Ted Kennedy’s Senate Seat

Things are starting to look somewhat dicey for the Democrats in 2010.  It is not unprecedented to see a [...]

2010

Just a quick FYI… Contrary to what the whole media world seems to be telling us, 2010 is not the start of a new decade; it is actually the 10th year in the current decade. In our Gregorian Calendar, there was no Year Zero. Thus the first year, A.D., was 1. From [...]

The Kindle, Nook, and New Year’s Resolutions

Long time no see, eh?  Well, the time has come where everyone is making resolutions for the New Year.  I certainly hope that 2010 is much better for blogging for me.  I still enjoy it, but I have hit a wall when it comes to ideas, and I am somewhat sick of constantly doing politics. [...]
