John, Rodrigo, and Gabriela
Well it shaped up to be a hell of a week for my favorite music as I picked the new John Legend album Evolver and it appears to be another solid effort from Mr. Legend who seems like he can do no wrong musically. He's got some collaborations inluding Andre 3000 and Kanye West but maintains his style. I also picked up Rodrigo and Gabriela Live in Japan which has some solid work on it as well. I honestly believe they should focus on live albums because their jam style plays out better as far as energy in a live setting. There are some repeats from their studio album but enough new stuff to make it worth your while as well.

My new work phone
Well I got a new phone the Motorola Q9 and so far I am very impressed. The phone is solid doesn't hang nearly as much as the original Q. The form factor is nicer looking as well. So far I like it a lot. The one thing that still sucks is the mms service which doesn't work like it should. It plays in stages but hey so far its the only feature that isn't great and most mms is crap mail anyways. Bumming tonight as the damn Phillies keep winning. Spending my typical Sunday watching sports and then some Dexter and Californication to top the night off.

Red Box, Vending Machines, and other Rants....
Hey there is nothing I like better than a good vending machine, heck I was all excited about the cool ATM's they have at BofA that you dont have to use an envelope to make a deposit and you can see a copy of the check on the receipt, but Red Box is definitely the future! Red Box is a dvd vending machine service that rents you a dvd at a dollar a day. You pick up the dvd at the vending machine and return it there as well and can even reserve movies online and pick them up at your location. It reminds me of the ipod vending machines that used to be at my local vons where you could by anything for an iPod including and iPod in it. Anyways I watched Iron Man (Very Good) and Dont Mess with Zohan (Very Bad). World Series starts tonight! Its my younger daughters 13th birthday so I am fairly traumitized about now having two teenagers. :crazy:

Rays are for real!
Well the Rays were great finally managing to shut down the team that has made a name for itself coming back against all odds the Red Sox. So its Phillies Rays in the World Series!

John Lester and Matt Garza's Necklace
I was watching the game tonight and noticed that both John Lester and Matt Garza wearing some cool looking braided necklaces and couldn't find anything on the web about them. It appears they might be the infamous Phiten at it again. I found this link on the Phiten website which may explain the mystery.

Powell endorses Obama
In what must be viewed as a serious slap in the face of the Republican Party Colin Powell has announced his endorsement of Barrack Obamma for President. It has to say a lot about George Bush that the man who was once his right hand man endorses the man running against his successor because he is too much like Bush. Gotta wonder if this isn't the final nail in the Republican coffin for the 2008 campaign.

Damn Boston is fun to watch
You all know Im a secret Boston Red Sox fan and tomight they showed why they deserve a good fan base that they have. When the cards were stacked against them down 3-1 in the series and 7-0 in the game the BoSox came back to win it in the bottom of the 9th 8-7. The team never gives up and with a town behind them the way Boston is I hope they keep it going.

Lets go Dodgers
Dodgers took what in my opinion was a must win tonight at Dodger Stadium and Kuroda is that how you spell his name took a stand on the Phillies dusting back Dodgers batters by launching a pitch over Victorino's head. It was a great game that I followed up with a couple of good episodes of Dexter and Californication.... Life is good and back to the races tomorrow!

Hello my name is Don
and I am addicted to baseball. I figured I would relax after the Dodgers locked up their trip to the NLCS by taking out the Cubs 3-0, but no then I had to watch the Phillies game today and found out who the Dodgers would be playing their old rival starting Thursday. Now I'm up late watching the Angels try to avoid being swept, Hell if only they knew how to call for a fly ball they would have already wrapped it up.

Flash for iPhone
Well Adobe it turns out has been actively developing Flash for the iPhone and apparently it is ready to go. At last this has been my last big gripe as Flash is so important to the web browsing experience now a days.
