Those were the days. And by days, I mean the time period at the beginning of this concluding decade. Back in the day Winamp is what we used to play mp3’s on our computers. Today, I assume most people use iTunes.
While it’s easy to poke fun at defunct software and technology, I do remember one [...]
We all love to jam out and play a little air guitar when the mood strikes us. However, I like to achieve authenticity with my air guitar playing.
Most guitar players, and most of my favorites are indeed right handed, but not all of ‘em. Something just feels wrong if I’m jamming out right-handed to an [...]

I don’t have custom ringtones for certain people, and I’ve gone through 2 phones over the last 2 or 3 years. The only time I ever really change my tone is when I get a new phone. Assuming that whatever song someone chooses for their tone is a song they like, what makes it a [...]
I must say, I’m pretty much Michael Jackson’d out at this point, and the main reason I haven’t blogged about his death, is because I’ve spent enough time both conversing about it in person, and on Facebook. I loved his music, and felt really sad for the man because of a lot of the unfortunate [...]
