In re: Do I need one? World’s most expensive cup warmer?

If I have to ask then the answer is probably no… Despite my love of coffee I think that this might be a bit of overkill for the average household a $1,000 cup warmer.  That’s right, probably more then most of your espresso machines if you have one, and even if you do if it [...]

In re: The Mug 2.0

Have you ever had a best friend?  Someone you could always count on to be there… well before I adopted Charlie I already had a trusty companion (not Sophie) that was (and of few of my critics may remember) the spill proof Nissan Thermos Mug.   When I bought the mug (30 dollars or so) during my [...]

In re: The Game

[Note: This is the second part of a series outlining my experience at the Ohio State / Michigan football game] Half hour until kickoff and we assemble our crew and start heading out to the stadium, walking down Wood Hayes Dr, across the Olentangy River and into the parking lot that surrounds the stadium. People [...]

In re: The Game – Pregame

[Note: This is the first part of a two part series on the Ohio State / Michigan game last weekend here in Columbus] Beep, beep, beep… I glance over at the clock and see it reads 5:45am. I glance down at Charlie my dog and see even he isn’t ready to get up for the [...]

In re: Does the Michigan Ohio State rivalry go both ways?

Many times things are perceived differently.  I remember in high school when an upcoming opponent showed up to sing, yes sing, about how they were going to beat us.  We were of course amused, considering none of us cared about the opponent(and probably the game).  I’ve been reading about the Michigan reaction to these games, [...]

In re: Today’s sign of the apocalypse… Playstation madness

So I just got off of the phone with a friend who is planning to get up at 5 in the morning or something to try and get a Nintendo Wii (pron.  weeeeee apparently?)  If that wasn’t bad enough (well the sad part is he probably will be too late) people are shooting each other [...]

In re: Is OSU so dangerous? Michigan email says so…

This Saturday in Columbus the biggest football game of the year, or maybe the decade is going to be played between the Buckeyes and U of M. The rivalry is considered the greatest by some (ESPN said, or at least one of the greatest rivalaries – see history). Columbus is full of passionate fans, maybe [...]

In re: What’s Brooklyn style pizza anyway?

“Anyone in the Midwest who thinks this is real Brooklyn is getting fooled,’….The Domino’s pizza has an oddly sweet crust that somehow manages to blend the characteristics of cotton and rubber.” NY Times The commercials are pretty stupid, with some stereotypical New Yorkers explaining that pizza that is foldable and with large toppings is Brooklyn [...]

In re: “Welcome to the social”? – Why the Zune will fail…

Microsoft is attempting to jump in the fray of MP3 players and take a stab and bringing down apple whose iPod dominates the market. (So far haven’t seen any ads, although their ad campaign welcome to the social might confuse some folks I feel) Microsoft up until now was involved only with software aspects of [...]

In re: IP and the arts

Yesterday’s New York Times had an interesting article about an Alabama artist who is being sued by his alma mater, the University of Alabama for trademark infringement.  The case presents the interesting question of where to draw the line and how much control should universities and others who possess power brands be able to control [...]
