NASA is Fucking Up

By Michael + October 12th, 2009

Stirred from hiatus. I’ll admit that originally the intent of this lonely island adrift in the blogosphere was pure selfish sport. Though a day came when I was satisfied. On that day I no longer desired to write - so I stopped. That was nearly a year ago. Though what you may find peculiar is [...]

Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell

By Michael + November 28th, 2008

I’m not the smartest person in the room. I’m probably not the cleverest either or best looking. It turns out that not being superior in all characteristics is okay. Malcolm Gladwell writes in his latest piece of thought piquing literature, Outliers, that one doesn’t need to be the most exquisite to excel - just merely [...]

Feverish

By Michael + October 1st, 2008

One hundred and four point one. That’s what the electronic thermometer reads. The first thought through my head is, am I going to die? Unless heaven is an endless coffee shop hop with daily blog entries then I’m still here. I’m still alive which will be the theme of this article.

Compartmentalization leads to comprehension and you have compounded logic. There is a chair in the room, there is a banana tied to a string on the [...]

So Long iPhone SDK

By Michael + September 16th, 2008

I am officially and indefinitely boycotting the iPhone SDK. Our application the Cool O’Meter 3000 was denied live status in the Apple App store. In essence they said that we made an application that was too simple to warrant worthiness to the droves of iPhone and iPod users. The first thing that probably comes to [...]

Perception of Possibility

By Michael + September 11th, 2008

Yesterday morning at one A.M. I along with much of the nerd world witnessed the firing of the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva. It made me think about a lot of things. Most importantly I realized how lucky I am to be alive in this time. If I can survive for another 50 years then [...]

Save Magazines

I am writing today in defense of the magazine. It’s an aged format which in it’s heyday could be likened to the iPad - a compact and flas[...] Read the rest »
