Help Me #KillTheBeard
That furry face is indeed me. For the last couple months I have enjoyed the benefits of a non-shaven face. This has led to a prolonged life for my razor blade, but ultimately, less smooching from the wife. This isn’t the first time I have gone post-election-Al-Gore, however. The previous two times I have had more than just a five o’clock shadow have been for a specific reason, both of which were Halloween. The first …more Revude
Why I love new Apple Maps
Here is a quick reminder in case you forgot. Apple recently made changes in iOS6 to their maps app. It was previously powered by Google Maps, but they opted to kick their rival to the curb and created their own Apple Maps app (I like saying that). This has caused quite a bit of controversy in the world of geeks and smartphone users. Tim Cook (CEO of Apple) even went so far as to apologize …more Revude
Thick7 – Hottest New Hip Hop Group?
Would you hit that? A question that is asked repeatedly in Thick7′s debut music video which is getting much attention since it first appeared on Youtube on Sunday, May 27th. While you were BBQing and drinking by the pool to celebrate Memorial Day, Thick7 was dropping bombs that you’ll never forget (a lyric from the song). Featuring Alison Haslip formerly of G4′s Attack of the Show, as the sexy bartender, the video follows the Thick7 …more Revude
2012 March Madness – Logo Tournament (Midwest Region)
First of all, I keep accidentally writing North Region. We had South, West, and East, and now Midwest. Makes sense because of the venue, but really throws me off. OK, let’s get into it. Round of 64 I need to point out that I only got one of the play in games right. Just shows that the play in games are stupid. Anyway, to the matter at hand. I’m really not sure why UNC has …more Revude
Cafe Flair – Holy Crepe That’s Good
How often do you eat crepes? Unless you live in France, I’m guessing not enough. If you are in the DFW area, I suggest you head to Frisco, TX and find Cafe Flair Crepes and Bubble Tea. Tucked away in the maze of white, one story buildings in the The Centre at Preston Ridge between Gaylord Pkwy and Warren sits an inconspicuous cafe amid the big box chains and boutique shops. The signage is almost too small …more Revude
2012 NCAA March Madness – Logo Tournament (East Region)
We have made it through two regions in the Logo Tournament. Today we tackle the East Region. A lot of good match ups here so let’s get to it. Round of 64 We already had one 16 seed knock of a number 1. Will it happen again? What I liked about both of the Syracuse logo and the UNC Asheville logo is the background. Syracuse’s logo features the Carrier Dome while UNC Asheville integrates their …more Revude
2012 NCAA March Madness – Logo Tournament (West Region)
We continue today with our Logo Tournament with the West region. Yesterday, UNLV moved on to be the first team in the Final Four. Who will will be our next team logo to get through? Round of 64 In the first match up of the West region we have a powerhouse in Michigan State vs an up-and-comer in Long Island. MSU”s logo is typically just a block S for State. First off, I hate that. …more Revude
2012 NCAA March Madness – Logo Tournament (South Region)
Now that the brackets have been set, inevitably, all the talking heads are weighing in with their opinions and predictions. Well, we have to jump on that bandwagon too. The problem is, we don’t know enough about college basketball to even pretend that we are experts. So, we are basing our bracket predictions on the teams’ logos. Here is how it works. I did a little research on all 68 teams in the tournament. I …more Revude
Challenge Complete
February was a month I decided to challenge myself. My challenge was to not go out to eat for the entire month. Today is March 1st and my challenge is officially over. It went faster than I thought it would and actually, it was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Some of the main goals I had were to lose some weight and see how it affected my blood pressure and cholesterol …more Revude
The last day
It’s the fiiiinalllll counnnttddooowwwnnnnn! Remember that song? If you don’t, watch the video below. Such a catchy tune. I am almost as excited about the Asian man crossing the finish line in the feature post picture. He’s happy, I’m happy and I’m sure if we knew each other, we’d be singing the final countdown together. At the end of the day I think I should put up some tape and run through it. I might …more Revude
