According to a poll on The New Business Blog, nearly 65% of us spend at least eight hours each day trolling the internet. It doesn’t take a math wizard to see […]

Okay, I know I’m being pretty obsessive compulsive about Digg, so I promise, this will be the last post about it for a while.  The way I look at it, I like Digg a lot - and by looking at the poll in the sidebar, I’m not the only one - and because I like […]

First off, why in the […]

If I was a Mets fan, I’d be thrilled. 7 to 1 is a pretty good win.
Too bad I’m a Nationals fan.
I take that back, it’s not too bad that I’m a Nats fan, it’s actually a great thing. It’s nice to finally have a hometown baseball team.
All things considered I don’t have much to […]
