For Christmas, e gave me an envelope. Inside the envelope was an advertisement for Hot Pockets. And inside that page were tickets to see Jim Gaffigan live at the Chicago Theater on January 29th.

Get it? I did! We saw him on opening night this past Friday, and it was a blast.

Of Pods and Pads

So here it is. The iPad. The lead up to the launch of this device has been filled with speculation and excitement. Probably a bit less than the iPhone, but still the hype engine has been revved.

It's not all bad, but it could be so much better.

The Larger Issue: Network Stupidity

While you may be a fan of Jay "Hey, look at this typo!" Leno, or you may prefer Conan "I'm actually funny and creative" O'Brien, everyone can agree that this move is going to create quite a mess for all involved.

As I've been thinking about this, one thing has been nagging at me... can we be over temporal issues at this point?
