05.26.06Office 2007 ImpressionsAlong with over 200,000 other people, I downloaded the Microsoft Office 2007 Beta 2 when it was released to the public the other day. In my job, I basically live in Word and Outlook, and as such was hesitant to install beta versions of these products.

04.26.06A SentenceSure Kent, I'll play. Here are the instructions: Grab the nearest book. Open it to page 161. Find the fifth sentence. Post the text of the sentence along with these instructions. Don't search around and look for the coolest book you can find. Do what's actually next to you. My sentence is: "We've seen conditional statements and loop statements in this book already, and they were introduced in Chapter 1, but this is the chapter where we nail down all the facts on these statements."

03.21.06The Daily GrindI am desperately sorry about the lack of updates; I have been absolutely flat out with work. Rest assured though, my 'to blog' file is getting larger, and there will be updates VERY soon (like, today). On the MobileBurn front, I am working on reviews for the Samsung D808 and P858, and should have those up later in the week. We should also have a Motorola SLVR review up very soon as well. Anyway, back to the grind (as if I can really call my job that).

03.08.06Mom Receives Text Messages From Kidnapped ChildThis is freaky. Since going missing on Monday, Natasha Brown has been sending messages to her mother, Stella Brown, with small details of what is going on, such as: "Help. I'm scared. I don't know where I am. Someone was following me and I just don't remember what happened. I just woke up in a basement. I'm scared." Sends a chill down your spine... Read - [via BreitBart.com]
