Patrick Some of you may not be aware of Tony Curtis. He’s an acting legend who starred in one of the funniest comedies of all time, Some Like it Hot. Not only did he have to play the straight man to Jack Lemmon, not only did he have to wear heavy amounts of makeup, but he [...]
September 29th, 2010 Patrick Most people my age remember a time when video games were a novelty luxury. And one of the must have luxuries was Pac-Man. The original arcade game debuted 30 years ago, with home ports of varying quality, and Pac-Man has become an icon since.
September 28th, 2010 Patrick I can probably be described as a casual football fan at best. I root for Chicago no matter what, but I only will watch the last few minutes of a football game. If the game has been close up to that point, that’s when most of the drama occurs. So, I was watching the game [...]
September 27th, 2010 Patrick Is there anything more delicious than a sandwich? It’s the perfect food, you can include all the basic food groups along with some of the best tasting condiments possible. As far as I’m concerned, the more you put on a sandwich increases the overall quality as long as the different parts don’t start to compete [...]
September 24th, 2010 Patrick I wonder if some will call this karmic retribution. Reggie Bush, fresh from his surrender of the Heisman Trophy, has been sidelined after breaking his leg this past weekend. Now, before you start worrying, it wasn’t one of those grotesque Joe Theisman breaks. Bush just planted his foot awkwardly and physics did the rest very [...]
September 23rd, 2010 Patrick My wife was at a convention last week for website designers. The convention sounded like it was mostly seminars and training classes. I’ve seen some conventions where there are very few classes and more industrial exhibits than you can imagine.
September 22nd, 2010 Patrick There’s a girl in Pennsylvania who had her phone confiscated for using it on school grounds. Fine, whatever the school’s policy, as long as they’re honest. Later that day, the girl was brought into the principal’s office because they had found photos of her topless on it. Boo to the administration being unecessarily nosey. If you [...]
September 21st, 2010 Patrick OK, so I’m a midwest boy who loves his Windy City. And that means any sports team is the rooting favorite in any sport. Even in basketball, which is not one of my favorite sports, the Bulls always get my rooting interest. So, how must the Dallas Cowboys feel right about now? The Bears are [...]
September 20th, 2010 Patrick After years of selling other people’s phones, it looks like the largest current retailer is getting set to launch its own brand of cell phone. Wal-Mart is going to offer cell phones that operate on the T-Mobile network. They will also have prepaid and regular contract options for the various phones.
September 17th, 2010 Patrick It seems Apple can’t buy a break, well, at least they tried. Consumer Reports still refuses to give the latest incarnation of the iPhone a positive endorsement. What doesn’t help matters is that Apple is discontinuing the free iPhone cases designed to counter the antenna issue.
