Childhood Cartoons: Pt.3 – Visionaries (Knights of the Magical Light)

This one might have slipped past your radar.  Brought to you by Claster and Sunbow, the same kind folks that brought us The Transformers (and a slew of other great cartoons like G.I. Joe), Visionaries of course were a tied in to a toy line of gimmicky action figures and vehicles.  The gimmick this time

The Inevitable Smartphone

Published on June 5, 2011 by in TheBlog

I know I’ve used that term inevitable a lot lately (a lot, two words folks), but there are certain points along anyone’s timeline that are fixed.  And in this case, this fixed point revolves around my new (and first) iPhone.  Now, I know that there’s a very good chance that the iPhone 4s will like

It was inevitable.

Published on April 21, 2011 by in TheBlog

I actually had just entered a title heading for a blog post when TheWife™ cleverly reminded me that I was thirsty for a Mill St. Tankhouse Ale.  I placed the new iPad 2 on the table, when no sooner than I put it down, her rouse successful, the iPad was scooped up into TheWife™s own

Cusps and Bubbles

Published on April 14, 2011 by in TheBlog

You never want to mention things before they happen–it’s nothing short of a bad omen. You talk the big game and it will inevitably come back, chew down some of the worlds worst tobacco, and slowly dribble an ensuing loogie in, and around, your face. I look forward to your comments. When it comes to

I ain’t waitin’ in line for that.

Published on March 26, 2011 by in TheBlog

There was a time when I was an early adopter of all things cool gadgets of geekery.  Video games systems, new toys, etc.  Like all the morons who lined up all day to buy an iPad 2 yesterday, I took a sick sense of pride in being one of the first to obtain these coveted

My own 2010 in review — also obligatory

Published on December 31, 2010 by in TheBlog

Keeping track of your own life events is a pretty daunting task.  Not so much remember that they happened, but more of when it happened.  Most of what I remember happening in 2010 is what happened in the past two months.  To be fair though, the first ten months of 2010 per rather nondescript. With

I Like New Experiences

Published on October 25, 2010 by in TheBlog

I really don’t know what brought this all on.  I really don’t.  Perhaps it was my rag on Steve Jobs over at Validate This! that started the ball rolling.  Regardless of the reasons, I’m currently running Ubuntu on my Macbook.  Ubuntu is a Linux GUI that, for the uninitiated like myself, is fairly simple to

Can’t circle strafe like I used to

Published on October 4, 2010 by in TheBlog

To say that I’m a little excited for Left for Dead 2 being released for the Mac tomorrow (October 5), you’d be correct.  I can’t say that being a “little excited” is an understatement, because it really isn’t.  I’ve been looking forward to the release since Steam officially launched for the Apple OS earlier this

The iPad is “Magical?” Pfft. My @$$!

Published on June 9, 2010 by in TheBlog

Today I touched an iPad for the first time.  My eyes lit up at first, but they quickly reverted back to normal, and then began to gawk in frustration at the device.  The only thing that may be considered magical about the thing, is how quickly it can piss me off.  My friend Ross re-tweeted

Do Consumers Really Care? (or; go ahead, jump!)

Published on May 27, 2010 by in TheBlog

Ah Foxconn. It’s not a highly recognized name, that is, at least up until recently. Even that may be stretching it. If you’re still feeling a bit in the dark, Foxconn is the Taiwan based company that assembles many of Apples handheld devices such as your iPod or your iPhone. The company employs over 540,000
