Well it looks as if the Writer’s strike will be over soon with the negotiating recommending acceptance of the contract worked out with the studios. The West board of directors as well and the East Coast guild’s council agreeing and urging it members to vote and ratify the contract. Good news for all the TV viewers in general tired of the crazy number of reality shows being pushed down our throats by the networks. However it is yet to be seen if any of the shows that ran out of episodes will be back this year or merely left out there until next season. As far as my favorite show ’24’, it is doubtful that this show will air this season at all. The closet I will get to 24 this year will be probably be this item I picked up at a Spencer’s today. 🙂
MacBook Airs Arrive
Setting up a number of MacBook Airs that arrived today. After holding one of these I can say it is way cooler than any commercial can display. Well off I go to load on the VPN software needed to connect these to the corporate LAN and hand them out.

Go Giants!
Since the playoffs started I have been arguing with everyone telling them that the Giants are going all the way. Everyone thought I was nuts and wanted to have me committed. Well here we are, the eve of the Superbowl in which the Giants will face off against the Patriots. Nearly everyone on the planet believes the Patriots are a sure win with a double digit lead to boot. I’ll tell you now what I told everyone else when the Giants were heavy underdogs during the playoffs: ‘This team is not the same team you know from the regular season’. The last time the Patriots played the Giants they only won by three points, three measly little points. The thought of this being a blowout by the Patriots is a joke. My prediction is that the Giants win by at least six points. That’s just my opinion I could be wrong, but highly doubtful.
Vegas Update
I have been really busy the past couple of days sightseeing and non-stop partying. I would tell you about the non-stop drinking and partying but the phrase “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” is appropriate for this trip. You can see the photos by going to the following link: http://www.pc-doc.com/photos/album/72157602198350370/
Ciao!
Vegas Baby, Vegas!
Finally, taking a long needed break. Heading out to Las Vegas with my wife this morning. Sitting at a bar at Newark Airport, getting my wife semi-drunk. She is not a good flier. I’ll keeping posting pictures while I am out in Vegas.
Just Great
Well, I quickly grabbed a iPhone once it was hackable to allow other networks to operate on it beside AT&T. I have several phones on my plan with T-Mobile and I was not about to get another carrier just for one phone. I would assume Apple is seeing a surge in iPhone sales after the hack became public. I figured they would have to walk a tightrope between keeping customers happy and making AT&T happy since they gave up a lot to be the sole carrier for 5 years. Today Steve Jobs publicly announced that Apple would try and thwart hackers from unlocking the iPhone. I guess they would do this with firmware updates. Let see how aggressive they will be at blocking hackers or whether this was a statement to appease AT&T. So if you are like me, I would avoid any firmware upgrades until the community confirms that it doesn’t make your phone unusable on other carrier networks. There is a link to the full story below.

Time For A Change
Please bear with me while I retool the site. I got tired of looking at the same template and decided to change it. Another reason for the change was because Safari and Flock were both rendering the page differently and incorrectly. I should have everything done by the end of the weekend.
