The Ginormous Boos Block and the slightly smaller Boos Block Of course I did not think ahead as I bought them in the middle of my commute and got to carry these cumbersome things for the rest of my trip.

Anybody else going to the PDN PhotoPlus Expo in NYC next month? I am trying to decide whether to just go to the Expo or if I should attend some seminars.

Happy Birthday guys.

I think the Alpha is still pretty much indestructible but it does still have a much worse warranty than it had just a few years ago.

I bought nothing but Tumi up until a year ago. The quality seemed to be getting markedly lower and the ever decreasing warranty was problematic. The last straw was the Townhouse line laptop bag ($595) that I am carrying now that is falling apart after less than a year of basic use.

Upgraded to the Developer Release "Timeline" Facebook layout. This is going to drive people nuts if the few changes they made this week caused such an outcry.

Happy Birthday

Great, how many Thunderbolt monitors can you sneak out of the store on your last day? Is anyone else going to be there all day on Thursday?

What happened is only 2 of my top five players have survived this far into the season. I had Jamaal Charles, Miles Austin, Kenny Britt and Antonio Gates out this week. It didn't help that my replacement players had one that scored 0 and another -2.

And the exact opposite on my other team. Number one pick down for the season, number one scorer down for the season. I am done.

I am in a real nail biter with Gene this week.

Happy Birthday Jim.

Excellent choices Mike. I have been very impressed with the Kobold line. Is the Ocean7 a warm-up for the Omega original. I think I want one but the style might be a bit too much to get any wear in my rotation.

Man, that line up is almost my complete Spotify play list. I can't imagine coming up with a reason to be out there for this, but I will be contemplating schemes.

That is alright I am booked at the Hyatt, I just thought I was booked somewhere else. I also see Larkburger on the map, that is Justin's new burger place isn't it?

Yeah, I do not know how I got it in my head that I was staying at a Marriott. It was probably wishful thinking as I have so many Marriott points I need to use. I get in Thursday morning and I am trying to decide if I get a rental if enough travelers are coming in around that time or if I just take a cab.

I actually have been thinking I am staying at Marriott all this time but when I checked I am staying in the immediate vicinity at the Hyatt. Is that the Technobimbo? I am glad you didn't listen to my advice as the Residence Inn I thought I booked is almost in another state.

Dinny, I am staying at the Marriott Residence Inn which is two blocks from the venue, 79 dollars a night and has full kitchen/fridge.

My players are dropping like flies. I need a bit of everything.

Some snapshots from my walk around my hotel this evening.

Looks like defense scoring is still not set up correctly in the second league. I didn't remember the scoring being so customized for defense in the first league.

Well my number one pick is out for the season and I am going to lose once again to Nate when I was projected to win by over 30 points.

Yeah, all I had after I made the Guacamole and figured out I had no chips. Not bad.

Homemade chips and guacamole for some football watching.
