I bought a treadmill from Amazon. It didn't go smoothly.

Here's an LA Times article on living in an RV on the Upper West Side. These would've been our neighbors... if we had ever actually lived on the Upper West Side.

Lucky number 7, right?! Happy Birthday, Dime Brothers. I know you've been ignored by the world at large (and by each Dime Brother); hang in there.

Aaaannnd we're back! For one and one article only! For the NFL preview you've trusted since 2009! With a 25% accuracy rate of predicting the Super Bowl winner.

If you've ever played Monopoly and visited a 3rd world country, you've lived what I experienced in Atlantic City.

Happy 6th birthday, Dime Brothers! It's been a path of ever-slowing motivation to keep you alive. Lucky for you it's so cheap to pay for domains and hosting now-a-days! Over the last year I think I did something in the Spring to manage the site, but maybe that was last year?! Life gets ever more busy, so posting may not improve any time soon.

With about 10 games left in the season, Miguel Cabrera has a chance to win the AL triple crown. He's current leading or tied for 1st in batting average, home runs, and runs batted in.

The new Amazon Kindle Fire HD Tablet doesn't have a positronic type R phase discriminating amplifier so I think I'll pass (Data's brain from Star Trek: TNG).

Rumor has it the Microsoft Surface Tablet will launch at the end of October for $199. That means every unit sold would be a loss for Microsoft; they'd hope to make up the difference in sales of other things (apps, etc.). The same is done with Xbox and games, and I believe often with printers and ink (I think Kodak was trying to go the other way and failed - to charge more for the printer and less for the ink, which over the long run would be cheaper for consumers... but we're stupid).
