Just things in general
Back when I lived in Chicago, and when I was in that 18-34 year old male category, I stumbled upon TechTv’s show “Attack of the Show”. This was a geek tech that covered all things geeky. I also found X-Play for great and honest game reviews. Adam Sesler and Morgan Webb were great. Morgan, who […]
I’ve been listening to all the rhetoric and news blogs. There were somethings I knew and somethings I didn’t know about. Before proceeding I do want to say that I believe people should have the right bear arms. Handguns for protection, shooting enthusiasm as well. Rifles for hunting, shooting enthusiasm as well. But there are […]
It’s a weird matrix of decisions points but I’ve boiled it down to this. My girlfriend has what I call a Verizion POS (piece o’ ….). She says it works fine but I don’t think she gets it. She didn’t have an iPad and didn’t want one. I got her one as a gift and […]
I’ve got a stock 11″ MacBook Air, the 4GB/128GB model. It’s got an 1.6Ghz i5 processor and the only modification I’ve done is great skin on the top from Gelaskins. I wasn’t sure how I was going to like the 11″ screen but to be honest it’s been fine. It’s running at a 720p resolution […]
A friend of mine on Facebook just asked that question. Someone he knew with two kids and a wife just passed away at the young age of 37. Those of you that know me know I lost my wife who was 40 and I’m now raising two very young kids. So this question of control […]
It is odd that yesterday I decided to follow up a prediction from last year on Best Buy and then today there is an article that Mr. Dunn is resigning as Best Buy’s CEO. Here is quote that Mr. Dunn provided: “I have enjoyed every one of my 28 years with this company, and I […]
Back in July of 2011 I posted about the sad story of Borders and how it went by the way side. At the end of the article I mentioned that Best Buy was on death row, making it way to the big chair. https://www.carlosrandolph.com/2011/07/124 I went to a Best Buy back around Christmas and it […]
Last night I finished reading the biography, of course it was on my iPad. It took me 4 day with a few longer sessions strung together. That’s how I read things when I’m really interested. I went in with the intention of just wanting to know a little bit more about a man that I’ve […]
It’s 7:00pm CST on Wednesday, October 5th and I just came down to catch up on some work. I pulled up Twitter and saw a posting asking people to post memories of of Apple and Steve Jobs. At first I thought it was something to share with Steve, something to give him some inspiration. Then […]
Today, as a friend of a food truck owner, I saw something that I didn’t realize was taking place. I saw someone from the South Branch Tavern Grille call the Chicago Police Department and complain about vending trucks parked on the street. He used a an old city ordinance that was enacted for safety purposes […]
