“It’s not to late to whip it. Whip it good.” I ain’t gonna lie (because there is no time for that) … I was at a loss as to what to wear to interview Mark Mothersbaugh, frontman for Devo (and brilliant soundtrack dude). I don’t have a Devo helmet, nor their trademark spud collar. Hmmm […]

After All Is Said — What In It Fo Me, Yo? A SXSW Takeaway
March 18th, 2009 · Tags: Cities · Gadgets · Satire · Wi-Fi
Well … as a matter of fact, I do take offense to the person who messaged me about “bats flying out of my b..t” after the last post at PingWi-fi. But, I am going to keep my head up and move forward. So, who don’t love them some schwag!?! Call me biased, but my two […]

March 18th, 2009 · Tags: Cities · Hotels · Restaurant · Satire · Wi-Fi
No doubt there are too many embarrassing moments and too much stuff I can’t repeat from SXSW Interactive. But, I figure why not share some details. In addition to finding great Wi-Fi at The Four Seasons, Garden District, The Driskil, Halcyon, Austin Java, Jo’s and more … here are the …
If Meat Is Murder, What Are Potatoes?

Does anyone find this potato as interesting as I do? LOL. Is this how Weston skyrocketed his photo career? What was I thinking? I could have sold this tate on eBay!
Finicky Readers May Find Food For Thought In Twitter Treats
March 10th, 2009 · Tags: Politics · Satire · Wi-Fi
Ever wonder why the word “random” is such a part of our everyday conversation lately? I think I have found the culprits — first stream-of-consciousness blogging and now the TV-dinners of blogging — tweets … those 140-gram appetizers on Twitter. Unfortunately, I have run across some people who are still TI — Twitter intolerant. Assuming […]
The King & Wi-Fi: Fast Food, Fast Connection
March 7th, 2009 · Tags: Restaurant · Satire · Wi-Fi
Don’t tell me there is nothing new in Wi-Fi. Today in Exton, Penn., I encountered the wireless wonder at a Subway and at The King’s place too. (So is Jared a computer geek, in addition to being a dork?) I am sure there are lots of SWs and BKs that have W-F, but I ain’t […]

As I prepare for the twice-a-year confusion/ritual known as Daylight Saving Time — how in the world is “spring forward” supposed to help me? — I am checking out Wi-Fi at hotel chain that is new to me. Comfort Suites. in Exton, Penn. Suites, inns … lots of hotel chains are lumped together in my […]
Kodak Moment Evolves Into Dirty Jobs
March 1st, 2009 · Tags: Satire · Uncategorized · Wi-Fi
In 2004 Forbes named my blog “Best of the Web.” Marketing types from Kodak headquarters contacted me to ask what I would charge for a personal appearance at one of their events. Blah, blah, blah. That was then … this is now. I won’t lie. The Internet is teeming with bloggers now — so I […]

Well … the universe is right again. For my birthday yesterday, Texas Tech gave me everything I wanted. The university signed a new $12.7 million contract extension with the “Wizard of No Wood” — coach Mike Leach out on the barren South Plains.
Tech Should Ante Up Pirate’s Ransom, Hang On To Leach Bootay
February 18th, 2009 · Tags: Cities · Satire · Sports · Wi-Fi
As I pinged my way through the heart of San Francisco several months ago, I spotted a TV crew, and being the publicity-needy waif that I am, I got right in the middle of them. They were shooting a pilot for MTV, and they ended up interviewing me. The only reason they gave me the […]
