A co-worker just got back from a trip to visit her...
She brought candies back with her and I just made off with a huge handful of Quality Street chocolates. Because they are so frickin good.

Even if the US loses this game, and what an AMAZING day for US soccer if we don’t, to lead Brazil is pretty damn exciting.
To have played is to know how how even the simplest pass is poetry. To land a ball exactly on someone’s feet while they are in stride. To find the corner of the net. To beat a defender in the box. I miss the game terribly, even if I sadly lack the stamina to...

I sent an email to a bunch of people today including Matthias, one of our kick-ass post-production people at Next New Networks, and this came back:
WHAT UP! I am on a beach in the Outer Banks. Did you know that Blackbeard the Pirate set up his home base there and his ship was sunk there in the cove. To this day, his headless ghost searches for his head and his lost ship. Now that you...

marco:
I’m not enabling tethering on my iPhone for two main reasons:
I already have a Verizon USB EVDO card, and it’s a ton faster. If you need to use tethering frequently in the U.S., eat the cost and get one of these.
