a cultural critique
Soon after I wrote my last post, a snow thrower came into our neighborhood, cleaning not only the primary access road by the street in front of our mountain retreat. Within a few minutes my family was dressed and ready to ski.
When is there too much snow to ski?
I received my Amazon Kindle2 on the day that it was released, and in less than a month, I have changed the way that I read.
I ate a quick lunch at Kelsey’s Irish Pub in the Normandy Shopping Center, today. It was a pleasurable respite.
I am enjoying being a Bose fanboy, this week. My Bose QuietComfort® 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling® Headphones had a bit of a problem, but Bose stood behind their product and kept me as one happy customer.
In an announcement that will likely have long term implications for users of personal computers, the International Linux Foundation today reported that it will release a version of its operating system that will include a link to a distributed network.
My wife and I had the distinct opportunity to eat at Qdoba Mexican Grill last evening. We should have stayed at home.
If you think you’re a philosopher, you’re not.
Americans use multiple resources when searching for specific answers. The traditional sources, libraries and librarians, are still common alternatives, even with the ubiquitous availability of internet access.
I ate at On The Border, a national Mexican food chain, this evening. The dinner was better than I expected.
I returned for the third time to Soto’s Grill in Ellicott City. It is still as great as it was each of the previous times that I visited.
Soto’s Grill in Ellicott City, Maryland is perfect spot for diners looking for a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the chain restaurants that pervade Columbia and Howard County, Maryland.
Free voice and data services will be available through an international consortium’s program that deploys a proton-based global network. The telecommunications network’s potential was confirmed last week following research using the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, European Organization for Nuclear Research, and the world’s largest particle physics laboratory.
My family and I prepared to each lunch at P.F. Chang’s China Bistro in The Plaza at the Mall in Columbia, Maryland this afternoon. Our visit confirms that a popular restaurant does not have to offer good service.
Need a fast lunch or evening out that won’t break the bank but will satisfy both your hunger and heart? Stop by Frisco Grill & Cantina in Columbia, Maryland. You’ll be surprised…this little restaurant has a lot to offer.
The broad acceptance of digital technology—the personal computer, in particular—creates a social breach between those who have access and those who do not. Access is not only a function of being able to buy a PC, but also a function of being able to operate the machine efficiently.
I challenge us to consider the common phrase, knowledge is power.
Being away does not mean being gone.
Always on is not always good.
