Hi. My first ever PC was built by a couple of economics majors(now big time moguls) who probably had no clue what all the parts did but found ways to snap them together like Legos (ok, am I being too harsh?). The components were mainly “no-name” or “built on a ship from Taiwan” as we …

Counting Down to Apple's Press Event
Hello, No matter what you expect it to be, a lot of us are waiting for Apple’s event on September 10 at 10a.m. PDT. I am effectively counting down the miliseconds 🙂 COUNTDOWN FOR WEBSITE
Why Do I Play Games?
Hello… umm… anyone there? A recent article on Kotaku (http://kotaku.com/why-do-we-play-games-458801312) has reminded me of something I’ve been wanting to write about for a while. While the question “why do you play games?” (video games in particular, ofc) seems like rhetorical nonsense to some, a lot of people who haven’t discovered the joys of gaming ask …
The Importance Of Being Eloquent(And Not Always Earnest)
Dear Blog, It’s been a long time since we had a chance to chat. I haven’t forgotten about you, don’t worry. I have just been so caught up in my personal dismay that I felt there was nothing I could share right then. But here I am again. While I wanted to keep this blog …

Offline, Forever.
[Sad smile] I have on my <insert favorite IM client here> friends list and in my phone’s contacts list people who are dead. I am afraid to delete those contacts – I can’t really explain why, it feels like a violation of their memory, as if I would embrace the fact that they are gone …
Chris In Wonderland
Hello, It’s been a while since I have blogged and there are several reasons for that. For one, I was on a vacation to Seattle for two weeks. Seattle may seem like an odd choice for a vacation. For me, it was an opportunity to learn as much as I could, as a tourist(I know…), …
Top 5 Things The TV Wants You To Believe Are True
Back after a week of hibernating. Here is this Saturday’s morning rant. The evil TV wants you to think all sorts of things that I simply find are not true. I’ve given up actual TV some 5 to 7 years ago (not sure on the actual moment I stopped watching) so I am almost constantly …
Nothing To See Here, Move Along!
