I’m certain that you’ve see this shit on Facebook.  Guys who post photographs of themselves without shirts on.  Without thinking about it much, this seems like a rather vain gesture, and something perhaps very Jersey-Shore-ish to do.
However, there are certain exceptions in which its “ok” for a guy to have some shirtless pics shared.
First off, [...]

Why are you making fun of advancing technology?  What did it ever do to you? (Besides help create bombs, machines guns, and biochemical warfare).  Keep in mind I’m referring to consumer technology from here on out.
I remember when we all first started hearing about the iPad.   It was hip to make fun of it, especially [...]

Believe me, I’m not one of these people who complains all the time about what’s wrong with Facebook.   However, I am not a fan of some recent changes (to our profiles, etc).
Apparently now anything thing we choose must already have an existing link to it.  When it comes to our favorite music, movies, books, or [...]

Friend/foolish Phillies fan Jeremy lives in an apartment unit just above the building entrance, facing the front.  In order to let people into the building, they can buzz up from the callbox.  Those trying to get inside are able to communicate with Jeremy, who also has a connected intercom in his unit.
Anyway, if you hold [...]

We all send “mass texts,” or text messages to 2 or more people at a time.
However, sometimes I really just want to send 1 person a text, but also keep a few others in the loop.
The problem with doing this is that the language of the text is written to address one person, thus could [...]

I think sometimes we all lose track of how far technology has advanced.  We’re all sometimes guilty of taking what we have for granted.
I remember there was a time when all calculators required batteries.  These days I’m pretty sure that all calculators are solar powered.
Many electronic devices require batteries, and I’m still impressed that solar [...]

In the NFL before an upcoming game, each team lists the status of it’s injured players.
A player can be listed as:  Probable, Questionable, Doubtful, or Out.
From left to right, those statuses go from most likely to play —- to not playing.
Now, whether it’s a regular Evite or an invitation for an event via Facebook, the [...]

Often I’ll be listening to my iPod or some sort of playlist set to shuffle the songs.
What do I do when the Beatles’ song “You Never Give Me Your Money” plays?  I can continue on with the shuffle, but a large part of my brain wants to hear the rest of the B-side of Abbey [...]

Technology continues to advance at rapid rates, and it seems almost as if the majority of people I know have some sort of GPS setup in their cars.
I don’t know much about this stuff, but I do know that GPS tells you where to go, and some systems I believe even alert you of where [...]

Pretty frequently I’ll notice people in the cars next to me talking on their cell phone —- but not with a hands-free headset!
Criminals.  In the state of California, this is illegal.   Often, I’ll smirk at these other drivers, gesturing with my thumb and pinky in a phone call-ish motion.
It’s a bit of a risky move [...]
