3 Good Things: Despite a few things I dislike about my truck, today’s warmer weather allowed me to open my windows and the sliding rear window to enjoy the wind for my drive home. I love that about the truck. Bring on summer! My son received the first of 3 stripes towards earning his next…
A Tough Day: Apr 28, 2013
A Huge Loss We were notified late yesterday that a member of our unit family was among the casualties of yesterday’s plane crash in Afghanistan.

Three Good Things: Apr 26, 2013
Each evening at dinner, my family engages in what has become a ritual. My children ask “How was work today, Dad?” and then “What did you do at work today, Dad?”. It varies slightly on the weekend when “work” is substituted with “home”. I then tell them 3 good things that happened today. My son,…
The BIG Change
My wife has been using a Samsung Replenish (low-end Android device on Sprint) for quite a while. Since July, however, she has begun having serious memory storage issues to the point where updates will no longer load. She had been hinting at an iPhone as her replacement phone the upgrade eligibility kicks in next April….

My daughter decided to save her money and returned to me the Nexus 7 she was going to purchase from me. I must admit, when I get home from work the Nexus 7 is my “go to” device. I really LOVE the 7″ form factor. But I really do HATE the Android interface. I know…
An Awesome iPhone 5 Experience
I stopped into my local Best Buy to check out the new iPhone 5. While viewing the movie trailers on the beautiful 4″ screen, I learned that Led Zeppelin will be performing a concert to be aired in October. This is very exciting! More than the phone itself? Duh! I had already decided the upgrade…
Money For Nothing
The Apple v. Samsung case is closed and now begins the Monday morning quarterback analysis. I won’t go there. I’m not a lawyer and haven’t spent enough time doing Google research to become an expert (like those who become medical experts by searching for a symptom). Although it isn’t perfect, I have faith in our…
Radio Paradise Rocks!
If you’ve not listened to Radio Paradise, you should give it a listen and a look. That’s because the Internet radio station not only streams their hand-picked mix of classic and indie rock songs, but they now offer a version of their audio stream that is accompanied by a curated set of HD photos. With…
