The most obvious title for any post in this blog: I am a Slacker


Got a broadband connection and enjoy music? Head on over to Slacker.com. There you'll find internet radio, with a twist. The twist is you control what is on. They have stations, but say you hate Abba, you can ban than from coming up. You can skip songs. Add in artists you like to your station and kick out the ones you don't. Eventually you will be able to mix in your own tracks.

Even better, soon they are releasing a player that via wifi and/or satellite will keep you rocking. Oh did I mention, that is all for free???

Word on the street says 3 execs from mp3 players started this company. It is one to watch.

And now you are hip. Well, at least I've done all I can. What did you really expect?

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
