Do You Hear What I Hear? Several of my friends had standing orders to shoot me if I EVER started wearing a bluetooth earpiece. Just a clean shot below the left shoulder … I mean … I love me some Star Trek, but even I know that communicators should not be worn on the clothes […]

If You Don’t Care Where You’re Going, You’re Not Lost
December 18th, 2008 · Tags: Satire
A friend asked me about my favorite page on www.pingwi-fi.com. Ha … It would have to be the 404 Page. To the uninitiated, that is the “mile marker” on any site that says “You are lost my friend.” Go to most sites’ URLs, and put a slash and a nonsense word behind that, then hit […]
Space Shuttle Take Off From Cowtown … “Like Spiritual, Man”
December 11th, 2008 · Tags: Airports · Satire
“So, how many monks does it take to touch the face of God?” “Three. Two to hold the prayer flags, and one to up throttle the space shuttle.” Ha … that makes absolutely no sense … I know. But somehow, I was trying to tie in the space shuttle’s piggy back take off in Fort […]
What Frisco Trip Would Be Complete …?
December 9th, 2008 · Tags: Cities · Satire
It has come to my attention that I neglected to post a photo of one of my new favorite places in San Francisco. I suppose in all of the hoopla surrounding the SFO press conference for PingWi-Fi.com, one ping was overlooked. Note the artwork (look closely … may be able to see) which features what […]
Listing Aimlessly, While Love Takes A Back Seat
December 8th, 2008 · Tags: Coffee Shops · Satire
I had coffee with Craig once … but until recently, I had not used his list. Then, the other day, I posted a garage sale item, hoping someone would carry away my old couch and love seat. (Don’t tell them I will accept any price, just to get rid of the things …) Anyway … […]

Are you on twitter? Ha .. it is one of the best named products ever, I mean … can you believe this is the hottest thing going? Oops … did I really say that and break ranks with the Internet cool of the moment? (Careful, might get blacklisted …) Whatever.
Tech Pirates Partay OSU Into Submission 56-20; Tap Out Ping-o-Meter

Wow … what an overnight trip to Texas Tech! I confess, it was a bit of an “impulse buy.” But, a ticket to the Oklahoma State game became available, and gas prices were hovering at only $2 a gallon. How could I resist a little PingWi-Fi road trip? Who doesn’t love to crash an ABC […]
Padre Island Report — Signs Of Change, Wi-(F)i Bombs Make Waves

Well, it took exactly one and only one ocean wave to rip off my sunglasses — even though they were “tied on” my head with a brand new, Lifeguard-red croakie strap. Ha … That’s a good look! “Aye, the ocean she is angry and she has taken me rose colored spectacles to the deep, to […]
CBS’ Bob Schieffer Debates Web 2.0 Reporting, Assesses Presidential Politics
October 27th, 2008 · Tags: Politics · Satire
“We’ve talked about 20 minutes, so I think you have enough,” he said, abruptly ending a great conversation in a phone interview last week. But CBS News icon Bob Schieffer had been gracious to grant an interview just a couple of weeks after he moderated the final presidential debate between John McCain and Barack Obama, […]
