Wedding Decorations
May 1st
I never could understand why my sister found my connection with android so annoying to her. It seemed to me, it was none of her business and she should just let me be. Now that she is planning her wedding, I am getting a clue as to why I upset her. She is on the phone, in chat rooms and social networking all day long over her annoying wedding decorations. Come on now, give it a break. Throw around some crepe paper and buy a few flowers and be done with it. She is driving me up a wall. Although, I must admit, it does shed light on why she complains about me all the time.
Luxury Wilderness Resort
Apr 27th
Surely the words luxury wilderness resort conjure up bucolic scenes in your mind. The thought of the fresh air, the rustling trees and the majestic mountains bring a euphoric state. Anyone in his right mind would be ecstatic at the thought of spending a few weeks with nature and luxurious amenities awaiting them. Not me, I was terrified at the thought of not having a signal for my tormenting android obsession. What if I can’t text? What if I can’t get on my social media sites? Oh! NO!. I wonder if they have a resident psycho analyst in house.
Wedding Cake Toppers
Apr 26th
One really fun thing that happened in my life lately was when they had a wedding on a short Mexican Riviera cruise I was lucky enough to be on. Me and a few of my android club friends scratched together enough pennies to indulge in the good life. We got a fabulous deal and set off to sea. We were floored when we found out that the wedding couple were a couple of android freaks like us. We immediately set off to the kitchen and had the baker make a replica of our phones with the head of a bride and groom. It was one of the rarest and most fun wedding cake toppers ever, guaranteed.
Burnaby Condo
Apr 25th
I was seriously considering moving into this beautiful Burnaby condo this coming summer. I got totally derailed when I found out that my wife’s ex-husband lived there. Not only was he there but he was living with one of my daughter’s college roommates. The whole scenario turned me off. My wife thinks I’m being immature and foolish. I say if you can avoid discomfort or strees, always take the necessary steps to do so. I must say that finding a place that even comes close to the quality and the ambience Burnaby offers is next to impossible. I hate to admit it but I may have to swallow hard and eat some crow.
OH! Green Printing
Apr 24th
Yes, I am that naive. I heard about green printing and I thought it was referring to counterfeit money. When I embarassed myself at a recent conference and alluded to it as such, the smirks were everywhere. Now that I know that it is a benchmark for all types of manufacturers to be environmentally aware, I’m glad I was wrong. It really was a fine community commitment for this company to make. They should be very proud of the example they are setting for all industry. The problem is that I haven’t been able to live down my original concept and continue to get some pretty weird looks from my associates.
Event Management Software
Apr 24th
I am, at times, thought to be some kind of a techie by my friends because I am an android nut. Nothing could be further from the truth. I am so caught up in my own little world that I am imperveous to most of what goes on around me. When a friend asked what to do about better organizing his event planning business, the best I could come up with was to advise him to purchase event management software. I added that he should only deal with a software provider that had everything under one roof. Those companies that outsource everything could keep him on a string endlessly.
Chemical Mixing
Apr 24th
I often have an eternal battle with myself. It seems to me that whenever I hear the term “natural ingredients” I get perplexed. If an ingredient isn’t natural, then where did it come from? This in turn brings up the thought “what is a chemical?” All chemicals come from this planet, whether it’s from a plant or a rock, it came from here. Does that mean that chemicals are natural? Does cooking foods mean chemical mixing? I am confused. Will someone out there please explain what is and what isn’t? If you stay tuned, I am sure I can come up with a few more perplexing questions.
Furniture Retail Software
Apr 23rd
The fact that a local furniture store a neighbor operates just replaced their old inventory control method with new furniture retail software, got me thinking. I was having nightmares trying to find a way to organize my massive electronic parts collection. I am out-of-control nuts about the world of android and everything else the tech world is spilling out to the world. I had the idea that I could use the old software my neighbor was replacing and could possibly have it tweaked to suit my needs. After having everyone I could think of help me , it turned out that I would have been far better off leasing or buying brand new software.
Ease of billing surprise
Mar 23rd
This guest post from Hong Alexander
The billings home security system is pretty straight forward. I figured it would be pretty tough to figure out what the rates were for what services, but I was pleasantly surprised when I moved to our new Montana-based house. I do not know if I would have been concerned with having security systems at a house in that area of the country before, but ever since we had it installed at our last house, it seems like an essential thing. I mean, we did not experience a bunch of break ins or anything like that. We just did not want to worry about our house when we were away and definitely did not want to pay a fortune to have anything fancy put in. It was a lot easier to get that service and figure it all out than both myself and my husband thought. It is always nice to be pleasantly surprised when you are trying to purchase something you think might be difficult to get. Now, if I do not get home before the kids and they have to be home alone for a tiny bit, I do not feel the need to freak out.
Scope Mount
Mar 21st
Being an over-the-top android fan has made it easy for me to relate to my cousin who is a military weaponry nut. He is about six years older than me. When we were kids, I was in awe of the knowledge he had and I had wished that I came upon a passion for something like he had. Well it happened, I’m a droidy. Last month he called me to come see this incredible scope mount he had been given for evaluation since he was a well known figure in that industry. He looked at it like he was its parent. He actually glows when in that environment. I get it.
