I'm a Star Trek fan. Let's get that out of the way first. I'm not a Trekkie. Nor a Trekker. Just a fan. And I actually didn't even get into it until college when my girlfriend was addicted to it. How could I say no when a chick was into a new sci-fi show? So Continue Reading

05DecGuilty as Charged
As some of you know (actually, I'd guess only about 2% of my readers would be aware), last night was the first night of Chanukah. One of the gifts I bought for my wife was a new iPod nano, but I made sure to download a bunch of her favorite tunes first and then sync Continue Reading
04DecAT-ATs Take 2!
Just a quick follow-up to my I Dream of AT-ATs post from a few days ago... Yes, I still want my mom to buy me one of those original AT-AT toys from the '80s, but my buddy Brian just pointed me to what could possibly be the coolest AT-AT variant or GameCube mod ever created! Continue Reading
01DecCatching Up on Blog Awards
I am soooooo behind on posting blog awards that I've been so fortunate to receive. If someone out there has a "Ridiculously Late With Gratification Award" I most definitely deserve it and I'll graciously accept it. Though it may take me a few weeks to do so. Sigh. Anyways, I'll try to be brief and Continue Reading
30NovBack to the Future Fridays - Volume 6
Well, I was all set to dedicate today's '80s flashback to Kevin Dubrow of Quiet Riot fame who passed away earlier this week. But Polli beat me to it. Don't worry, I banged my head plenty in honor of Metal Health. So instead of head banging and rampant insanity in mosh pits, I'll slow things Continue Reading
29NovGet Lost
It's no secret. I'm terrible, as in really, really, really, really, really (did I mention really?) bad with directions. I remember hearing a story about Albert Einstein. Genius he may've been, but he was also quite absent-minded and often got lost on his way home because he couldn't remember which house was his. So his Continue Reading
28NovA Few Good Deals
Black Friday and Cyber Monday may be a thing of the past this shopping season, but that doesn't mean the sales and coupons aren't still coming fast and furious! Yes that's right, the closer to Christmas we get, the more desperate some retailers get. So expect a ton of great sales, promotions and codes in Continue Reading
27NovI Dream of AT-ATs
I must've been about 9 years old at the time. I distinctly remember walking, no, pacing the aisles of our local Toys R Us. Me, my sister and mom were doing our holiday walk-through. We'd walk the aisles and tell mom what we wanted for Chanukah that year. Mom would either write it down in Continue Reading
26NovIn the midst of insanity... some good news
If you haven't noticed, I've been a tad stressed lately between a number of things, most huge being the holiday shopping season, Black Friday, Cyber Monday and so on for the next few weeks. But I just got a phone call from my dad. At a recent visit to his dermatologist, they discovered a "funny" Continue Reading

If you have a PayPal account you can save big this holiday season at a number of popular online stores. And if you don't have a PayPal account, go get one and then re-read the previous sentence... If you don't have one and don't want one, then, sorry. I got nuthin'... Anyways, this holiday season, Continue Reading
26NovCyber Monday is Here!
Back at work after a nice long weekend are you? Good. Working hard? Yeah, didn't think so. You're getting some online shopping done, aren't you? Well, technically if you're reading this, you're just reading a blog, not shopping. But you're about to shop I can tell. And with good reason, while Black Friday was all Continue Reading
