Wear Yellow
Got my L.A.F Livestrong Wear Yellow Bands yesterday. If you are not into the recent achievements of Lance Armstrong he reecently won his 6th tour de france. His foundation for Cancer Survivorship is raising funds with a wear yellow campaign, yellow is the color of the leaders jersey in the tour. The bands are only 1.00 a piece and go towards a really good cause.

An anonymous tipster leaked us some information and photos about Nextel's 2004 lineup of Motorola cellphones. Among the more interesting models planned for next year is the Motorola i930, a PDA phone running Microsoft's Smartphone operating system that they're planning to release around the end of next year. The i930 will have a built-in digital camera with flash, a large 65,000 color display, an SDIO expansion card slot, and run on both the iDen and GSM cellular networks.

Treo 600 - Finally available for Verizon Wireless
While I'm sure that people will balk at this statement Verizon is the best cell service provider. The quality of their phone service is unmatched. With that said they are a;so the slowest to implement new phones to mrket. Apparently as I was told to let other providers get the bugs worked out. Finally the finest cell phone ever made meets the finest cell service provider as finally the treo 600 has come to Verizon.
This will truly be the turning point for the Treo 600. Verizon is huge and we shall now see really how awesome these phones are. At least I probably will as my company uses Verizon, now I just need to see how to con them into buying me one!

Lakers
My Lakers have reall started to piss me off. First they get rid of Phil to placate Kobe. Then they trade Shaq for Lamar "Smoke two joints" Odom, Caron Butler, and Brian Grant. Then they let Fisher sign with Golden State. But now finally the straw that broke the camel's back.........They signed Vlade "The Flop" Divac. t was the only thing they could have done to make the f'ing team any less likeable. I had already become a Kobe hater as has most of LA. A I have pretty much always been a Valde hater! I imagine the Lakers are lookng for players who will bow down to Kobe's ego which Vlade should do as long as he is not asked to quit smoking. The only thing that will make it better is ifobe gets his ass thrown in jail and some real basketball fan buys the Lakers after Buss and Kupchek die in a gay suicide twist.

1up.com
There is a new gaming site 1UP.com. As an official addict of all things Halo oriented I was really interested in their review of Halo2. It sounds like it is going to be awesome.

Ensenada Baja California
Well I had the opportunity to spend some time in Baja this past weekend and was I impressed. Ensenada was really nice! The drive down to Ensenada on Highway or is it a Tollway 1D was really nice. Its a four lane toll road from just past Tiajuana down to Ensenada and it is much like driving down PCH on our side of the border. The town itself is really nice as well. Since it is full of tourists the people there are really careful to take care of the tourists including not running them over. We got to see the Bufadora which is a famous water spout where the ocean waves go into the rocks and shoot water high in the air. It is described as:
A deep underwater canyon leads to the cave in the cliff, gouged out over aeons of time by trillions of tons of pounding surf. The surge of heavy ocean swells is channeled through the canyon and forced beneath the surface into the narrow, tunnel-like entrance of the cave. This phenomenon of nature has been a strong influence in the tourist development of Punta Banda peninsula.
The town was nice and they have tons of uniques shops especially tons of trinket tourist shops in the area around the super tall flag where the cruise ships dock.
