As a user who watches only one football game per year, I woke up this morning to check my iGoogle page before starting my errands for the day. What greeted me should be no surprise. The NFL is at it again.. (actually it’s against the law to say NFL without permission now, did you know […]

Help Needed
January 31st, 2008 No Comments
Notice I didn’t say Help Wanted.. lol. I NEED help, just can’t afford it yet. I’ve spent the last two days re-implementing our old business contract relationships and establishing us further out there in the ethersphere that is cyberspace. I even went so far as to post a job on Craigslist this afternoon looking for […]

Ebay Goes to Hell
January 30th, 2008 3 Comments
Well, tonight was it for me.. a longstanding part of my e-commerce career might have just fallen into jeopardy thanks to eBay’s new policies.
As of next month, ebay is jacking their fees to sellers (me) from 5% per transaction to 8.75% per transaction. This means that if I sell on my normal threshold of MAXIMUM […]

Vonage Sucks
January 28th, 2008 13 Comments
Now that I’m on hold with Vonage, for an estimated 25 minutes more, I decided to use that time to share JUST how bad vonage sucks. Late last week a friend of mine (Tim) got me to try Skype Pro, which gives me unlimited outbound calls to the US and Canada for a whopping $36.00 […]

I need feedback from you viewers
January 22nd, 2008 No Comments
Sorry I’ve not been blogging more lately, but getting the business upgraded and off the ground has been taking most all the available time I have lately. I’ve been beating the streets, knocking doors to meet new customers, working on the PR web site, trying to re-code from scratch the e-commerce web site with the […]

TimeWarner = Comcast Battle, Round 2
January 17th, 2008 No Comments
It seems another provider is joining the hunt for a way to throttle Internet traffic. Most of you who read my blog aren’t very "literate" in the bittorrent world, but basically you can just consider it an easy way to download TONS of information from the Internet; movies, games, tv shows, pictures, programs, etc. (Some […]

When is copyright just plain stupid? Have we gone too far?
January 6th, 2008 No Comments
It appears the music and movie industries have inspired the rest of the world to jump on the copyright and DRM train. Here is just some of the absolutely ludicrous news I read today. I haven’t even gotten to the mainstream news agencies before I got completely fed up and had to post this. Seriously, […]

Important news for those of you running Microsoft Office 20003
January 4th, 2008 No Comments
This is something important I thought I’d share for those of you running Microsoft Office 2003, which is by far now still the most common version, since most of the world hasn’t caught up to Office 2007 yet. If you downloaded the Service Pack 3 patch, released in September last year (2007), and you work […]

The Scoobies go to Pamlico!
January 2nd, 2008 No Comments
Thanks to the coolest connections (ie: my Mom) the Scoobs have been invited to a once-in-a-lifetime chance to spend an off-season week on the beach. I would usually have put WAY more time into planning this, but the opportunity fell in our lap with little notice and there’s NO way I’m turning it down!
Mr. […]

December 28th, 2007 No Comments
Ok.. I took a moment and republished some of the original content from Carolinaregion.com today. I thought it worth sharing, IF (and only if) you have about 20 minutes and absolutely NOTHING to do with your life at the moment.
The new pages are:
42 and the Meaning of Life
