San Francisco is becoming the first city to ban “single use” bottled water. http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/san-francisco-bans-sale-plastic-water-bottles-climate-change This is stupid. Let me explain why. They will still be selling all sorts of other beverages that are way worse to consume, as far as health goes, and those containers are just as harmful to the environment as the […]
Tattoos and why you probably shouldn’t get one
First, a disclaimer, I have a tattoo. I’ve mostly forgotten about it. It’s on one of my shoulders, and honestly at times I forget which side it’s on. I was young, dumb and stupid. It never occurred to me that if I got a tattoo that was a logo for my favorite rock band at […]
Stats for my blog
As you can see stats are improving.
Suspenders
Ok, I’ll sort of admit it, I wear suspenders. However, if you saw me, you wouldn’t know. I wear them under my shirt on top of a t-shirt. If they do their job, which is to hold up my pants, you won’t see my butt. On most days they do their job. I was tired of hiking […]
Dad’s book
My dad passed away on August 8th, this year, as the result of an automobile accident. In the 1980s while working as a real estate agent, he wrote a book. It’s not very long but it’s the story of his life up to a point. The part he didn’t write about is all the years spent […]
My problem with Groupon
I hate Groupon. There I said it, I had a couple bad experiences, and yes I will agree it was probably partly my fault for both cases. However, I’m sure I’m not the only person who has done the same stupid things I’ve done. I’m writing this for myself so I can consider whether I’ll […]
Why I don’t give a crap about Office for the iPad
Today, Office for the iPad was revealed and people will soon be able to pay for it and use it. However, I won’t be one of those people, unless it becomes a free app. Why? You may ask, because there are already a million alternatives and this just way too late. Thanks a lot, Microsoft. […]
Halloween
I think Halloween is my second favorite holiday next to Christmas. Yes, I love it for all of the wrong reasons. Why? Why not? Does it matter? No, I’m a big boy and I can do what I want. Ok, what are those reasons? I love the candy! I love the costumes. I love the […]
iOS 7 is almost here!
Tomorrow will be an interesting day for me and many other “Apple fans” and people who own a more recent iPhone. Apple will be pushing out the latest update to the mobile operating system for the iPhone. I’ve actually seen the first version of iOS 7 and how it operates on my phone. It was […]
Back to school
Today was the first day “back to school” for many students including my daughter. For myself this was always an exciting time of the year. Now, it’s just another day to me. Today, it’s turned into a social media event, I saw lots of people posting photos of their kids all dressed up in their […]
