What is a blog?  For us it is a short blurb that we write when the mood strikes us.  It can be first person, funny or informative. In short, a blog is whatever we want it to be. Published June 3, 2008 at 12:57 p.m.

I have a feeling it will be an exciting week. In the next seven days, I predict a bunch of stuff will happen. Here, in order, is what I'm hoping for the most:

  1. A 3G iPhone launches at WWDC on June 9: I'm rooting for 3G, GPS, videoconferencing, Flash compatibility, cut-and-paste, more memory and a $200 price tag. If that all happens, I'll buy one the day it goes on sale.
  2. Hillary Clinton drops out of the race: I'm soooo tired of watching her megalomaniacal exploits. Hang it up, already.
  3. Prince Fielder goes on a home run binge: This may have already started, but I look for it to continue and ignite the rest of the offense.
  4. Gas prices go either radically up or down: Obviously, I'm hoping for a drop, but a huge increase seems to be the only thing to get law and carmakers to react.
  5. The IRS mails my tax refund check: Waiting patiently is getting old.
  6. A hot and rain-free day to drive my '75 MGB to work: Because summer is better with the top down.
  7. A hotter and guaranteed rain-free day to drive my scooter to work: Because summer is even better on two wheels.
  8. The Cubs lose a bunch of games: It's time to knock those lovable losers off their high horse.
  9. Time Warner puts out an upgrade to its Navigator software: Everyone liked the way it worked before, now it's clunky and unintuitive.
  10. Something opens on the Marquette Interchange: Probably a long-shot, but I heard it was ahead of schedule.

Remember, you don't have to have a convertible to drive around with your top down!

Yay! The only improvement with the new navigator software is that it tells you how much room is used on the DVR. Otherwise, it works almost as well as "Vista". Thank heaven for Mac OSX.

YES! Time Warner's horrible 1982 graphics was a downgrade in my view. It was worse than before. I tried to complain but it fell on deaf ears. It is horrible, it won't record programs sometimes if it is on the series setting. It is like going from PS3 or XBox 360 to Calicovision or Atari. Then again when does the competition start rolling in? Has that been voted on? Did it pass? When will I have a choice between something good or TWC?

You have the IRS mail you a check? C'mon, you're the gadget guy right? You don't believe in direct deposit? You'd already have the money if you went that route.
