Why We Gloat
5 years ago, I made a bet. Two bets, actually.
The first was with myself. I bet myself that if I devoted serious time to it, I could become a great technology blogger. It wasn’t an easy bet to make. I knew it would require upending my life at the time. And it did.
The second bet was related to the first. I knew that to become a key tech blogger, I would need a focus. As a relatively new Mac user myself, I decided that focus would be Apple. Yes, I was coming later to the party than some, but Apple was still a company at the time that was scoffed at by many. But drawing from my own experience, I truly felt that the company was on the cusp of changing the world.

Hey Zuckerberg, Take Facebook Down for a Day

Even After All This Time — A poem by a friend

A four year old poem written by an amazing friend of me. ——————————————- If I could find a spot where truth echoes I’d stand there and whisper All of the dreams about I’ve ever had All of the memories we shared Or that I wanted us to share All the things we said and didn’t say That should and shouldn’t have been spoken I’d describe every look you gave me Those ones that made me feel immortal And those that made me feel useless I’d whisper all of this And sit In the familiar silence that always means so many things for us I’d sit in that silence And listen For what echoes back Because after all this time I don’t know Which ones were mislead dreams and false memories And which were reality even if hidden And it can’t be hidden that I still think of you Still sit in the silence After all has been said And Listen For anything

How to Play To Win
Glory - Jay-Z feat. Blue Ivy Carter (Her first cries are at the end)“You’re a child of destiny, you’re the child of my destiny, you’re the child of the child of Destiny’s Child, that’s a hell of a recipe.”
“Ya mama said that you danced for her, did you wiggle ya hands for her?”
“You’re everything that I prayed for, God’s gift I wish I woulda prayed more.”
“Baby I paint the sky blue…my greatest creation was you…”
“Hard not to spoil you rotten lookin’ like little me/The most beautifulest thing in this world is daddy’s little girl.”Honestly, Jay-Z and Beyonce are my favorite celebrity couple ever and I love them.
I love them!
I’m secretly hoping Jay goes in to politics, perhaps NYC City Council or Commissioner or something? I would move to NYC in a heartbeat to work for him.

If you never take it seriously, you never get hurt you always have fun, and if you ever get lonely just go to the record store and visit your friends.
