The Geek Brief Apple Bias

I started to @tastyworm on Twitter about this, but 140 characters just wasn’t enough. He asked, “is she *really* OS agnostic? She certainly comes across with a major apple bias.”
Here’s the problem: Geek Brief is a two person production with a massive audience. We write the show together, but often Cali’s time is encompassed in [...]

A Little App. I’d Like on My Desktop

Saturday, I was writing a check for rent and paying other bills. I opened a spreadsheet in Numbers to keep a running total of about 5 debits and credits. Numbers is great, but for a quick little list, I wish there was a lightweight, desktop widget with about 10 rows and 2 columns. The left [...]

Dottie’s Teaching Angels How to Sing

Dottie Rambo died early Sunday morning when her bus ran off the road and hit an embankment. I never met Dottie, but I’ve met her daughter, Reba and her grand kids, Destiny and Israel.
She’s a close friend of my friend, Mark Lowry, and she was Vestal Goodman’s best friend. I wish I could be [...]

50 States in a Year Road Trip

We’re looking into the feasibility of doing a year-long road trip. We would need a motor home on the larger side in order to have studio space.  Based on our calculations, we need to raise between $100,000 and $300,000 to cover bus payments and travel expenses. I don’t know if it’s going to be possible, but I [...]

Live Blogging Miss America…why not?


Gizmodo Fiasco

I haven’t blogged in a while because my Wordpress theme is screwed up and I keep asking Cali to fix it, but she’s always busy and I’m not nearly as technical as she is. I write this paragraph because I love her, and if I say Cali Lewis, she will get a google alert that [...]

Dave Winer is Officially Worthless

I grew up in the transition to Web 2.0 with a great appreciation for Dave Winer and his amazing contributions to everything that makes my job possible.  His irrational hatred of Jason Calicanis has lead me to entirely disrespect his opinion.  Winer invents stuff that matters.  Calicanis capitalizes on it. Both things are noble.  For [...]

Longing for Autumn

I grew up in the South, but come September, I fit better up North. I’m longing to pull out a couple of light jackets and gear up for the cold. Here in Dallas, we’re months away from that, if it happens at all.
To me, Autumn is the most romantic season and we find [...]

Factory Girl

I’m as eccentric as I can afford to be, and I admire people who steadfastly act against convention. We’re watching the movie Factory Girl. It’s about a girl who knew Andy Warhol, and therefore, it’s indirectly about Andy Warhol.
My other favorite movie about someone connected to Andy is Basquiat. Jean-Michel Basquiat, a.k.a. SAMO, [...]
