It's been a while since I did a gift guide, each year the holidays seem to creep up on me faster and faster and each year I am never prepared for them. Last year I had gotten fired from a position I held for 7 or 8 years without any warning or any cause (you can read about it here). Even though it was one
Mother's Day is just around the corner so I thought it would helpful to all you people with moms if I gave a quick rundown of what not to get her for that day in honor of her. I'm not talking about macaroni necklaces or hand made cards, those are cherished gifts which moms always love. If you are giving her those things you aren't
It all started innocently enough. I was on Facebook, trolling through status updates when I came across someone's update about Candy Crush. It said something like this: Gonna take a break and play a little Candy Crush. It's fun and even a little addicting ; ) Fun, a little addicting and candy? Count me in. I did a quick Google search to see what this
If you haven't gotten a Furby yet then it's only because you don't have a 9 year old daughter. If you had a 9 year old daughter you would have a Furby or possibly two. We got a Furby. For those of you who live under a rock or who missed the memo - Furby has been updated and re-released. For those of you who
I'm glad I didn't see this infographic on successful books before I started writing. It's nice to see the stats of what sells when it comes to books but I don't think a book should be written because it will sell. A book should be written because it needs to be written.

Many of you may be shocked to learn that I am a Fanboy. I don't have an Apple tattoo and I don't talk about Apple products everywhere I go but I have to admit I love them and I totally buy into the marketing. I have ever since 1984. However, it wasn't until 2009 that I got my first Apple product. I got an iPhone
If you haven't heard of Angry Birds yet, don't worry, you will soon. Actually you should be a little concerned because as trends go this one is hot. Even Dick Chaney knows about Angry Birds. Angry Birds is a cute little game for the iPhone, iPad and many other devices. In a nut shell you aim birds at a target and try to knock it
When I was a kid* I would ask my parents what they wanted for Christmas and without fail they always told me they wanted the hardest thing to get them. My father would always say "I just want you to be good" and my mother would say "anything". Both answers sucked. At the time the easiest one of those gifts to give would
Image via Wikipedia That's right, I said it. We're all thinking it in the back of our minds so why not say it? Thanksgiving was pretty much swallowed whole by Christmas. Even before we carved that turkey I got 687 emails about great deals on gifts for Cyber Monday and Black Friday. Not one of them was enough of a deal to make me sell
I love my iPhone. Actually, I ♥ my iPhone (Shawn taught me that). I ♥ my iPhone because there are so many great apps to play with. Lately I have been playing Cowabunga (it's free). My fingers get all sweaty which cause me to drop the cows in the river a lot but still it's great fun. And the sound effects are awesome.
