I'm starting a new tradition of highlighting 5 things that drive me nuts every year. 5 things that if done, disqualify you & I from being pals. You own or are considering a selfie stick. Can you even imagine what people in previous decades would think if you tried to describe this? If you feel that you have to carry a stick to attach your phone to around, so that you can take pictures of yourself...that's a problem. You copy/paste Facebook posts saying you will win millions of ...
My Favorite Things 2015 Edition
Every year I like to write a blog post that recaps some of my favorite products or services I experienced that year. While I didn't host a talk show announcing my favorite things and giving them away to a screaming out of control crowd, I am posting them here for you to get for yourselves. Feel free to scream if you'd still like. AirMail - I've struggled to find an email program on the Mac that I can get behind. The Gmail interface is horrible, and unfortunately, the Mac Mail program has always ...
2015 Macbook Review
If you've read my blog for any period of time, it's no secret I'm a fan of Apple.

What's even more amazing that even in this day and age with some much information at our fingertips, the consistent lack of quality candidates I get. Easily only 10% of those that apply are worthy of consideration. So naturally I was motivated to write another hiring post. Hopefully to be found be future candidates to help bump that number up. This time I ...
My Apple Watch Review: 5 Reasons It Works
It's no secret I'm a huge fan of Apple products. I'm usually an early adopter no matter what the product is. However with the Apple Watch, I actually held back longer than usual for a few reasons. For starters, I've never been a watch or jewelry guy. I've never liked the feel of wearing anything like that. I also had reservations about how the watch or jewelry would look. Would it be too bulky? Uncomfortable? And would it really be worth spending that much on a watch or jewelry? After a few ...
Being The Underdog Is More Fun
The March Madness Tournament is one of my favorite sporting events of the year. Not because basketball is really my favorite, but because of all the sporting events in the world, it's the one event where anything is possible. Basketball is an interesting game if practiced often. One can buy inground basketball systems from Mega Slam Australia for this.Upsets. Seeing lower seeds beat the odds and moving on is incredible to watch. Smaller schools not given much of a chance that fight and claw ...
