Nice view of the parade from up top.

It was long over due.

Time to clean up my site and stop reposting tweets (lame, I know).

hello

this is a picutre!

It’s been a while since my last post. I’ve been busy with a move, a wedding, some travel abroad, and a few rounds of golf here and there. Plus, it’s finally hot in NYC. At least, I’m back to shooting under 90.

Woo hoo!!

Time to dust off the golf clubs and start stretching your back. Golf season is finally here in NYC (albeit a few weeks late)! I’m sure that watching the Masters last weekend, got the hordes of hibernating golfers off their couches and on to the driving range. This Saturday is supposed to Sunny and a nippy 55 degrees F. Golf is starting indeed!

No, this is not an April Fools’ joke.

Foolishly, I signed my wife and I up for the Broad Street 10M Run in Philadelphia. The race is in the first week of May, so we have a solid month to train. I know that 10 miles is not a marathon. It’s not even a half-marathon! But, I haven’t run 10 miles since probably high school. OMG, what did I just sign myself up for?!?

Ok, so I disagree with the ban on white socks with sandals thing on a purely practical basis: in the summer time your feet sweat and socks help to absorb the sweat when you wear sandals! Am I right?!? YES!!

So there is this website that offers some fashion advice for nerds. Some of it seems legit, but others are a bit extreme. Since I’m married, I already have my own fashion consultant (wife/dictator). But I can’t wait for the summer, sandals, and white socks!!

Top 10 Fashion Suggestions for Nerds

Slayer!!!!!!

So browsing through the NY Times today, I just realized that I missed catching Slayer at the Hammerstein Ballroon on Thursday! Ahhh, curses!!!

Ok… ok, deep breaths… no problem, I’ll just have to wait a bit longer to see them again (weep, weep).

But, damn, now they are article material in the New York Times?!? Nice…

“Who would have thought, back in the 80s, that the clatter of Slayer’s rhythm section would someday become one of those archaic folk forms worth preserving just as an example of human mastery, like Kansas City swing or flamenco singing?”

I, along with thousands of other Slayer fans, feel vindicated. So proud, so proud.

To honor this occasion, I will queue Slayer on my playlist for the next month! Slayer!!

My aging Dell Precision 330 needs to be retired. I *want* a new dual-core processor. But do I go Intel or AMD? I’m like a kid at a candy store with just enough money to buy 1 candy bar. Snickers or Baby Ruth? Butterfinger?? Mars Bar?!?

Ok, so after almost a year with a “Smartphone” (Treo 650), I’ve gone back to using a regular phone – Motorola Razr V3M. I’m on Verizon, so my phone option were a bit limited and I did *not* want to change carriers. The Motorola Q was tempting, but it’s UI turned out to be disappointly slow and clunky. I’m tired of the Treo brick-phones, so back to a regular phone again… until a faster and sleeker smartphone comes out.
