all i want in life

I travel a lot. And I know that I am a snob these days. Economy hurts my brain. Really. I start to break out in hives when people mention 12 hour economy flights. I will practically sign over my first born child to fly anything but. Until now. I will fly economy any day on […]

gram v ryder

Father vs Son. Graham and Ryder at 3 months old. Do all babies just look alike or do they really look alike? I wonder. Also, not sure why they have Graham dressed in a strange leopard skin print.

Things that piss me off part 1 million

People who take up 2 seats at the boarding gate while I am sitting on the floor in front of them. Assholes!!! Would the owner of these Birkenstocks please work on considering others. Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

step away from the blackberry

With the announcement of the $100 million iFund by Kleiner Perkins Caufield Byers (man, that is a mouthfull) it seems that Apple is going out for a Blackberry killer and the possibility of taking the iPhone to an enterprise level. Do I, as a hardcore loyal Blackberry user, think that this is possible? Currently. I […]

suitcase geek

In my ongoing and neverending obsession with suitcases, covers and other protective sleeves I have purchased the ultimate travel geek accessory. A Tumi roller bag. I am really drooling over this one. It is a limited edition chestnut FXT ballistic 22″ wheeled expandable frequent traveller. I am sitting here petting it as we speak. It […]

vanity search vs privacy

There was a time earlier in my life that I was happy to publish just about anything on my blog. I always kept it […]
