The precious is mine...

The iPhone 3G is mine and has been since late Friday night. My entire 7-11-08 experience will be detailed later.

Tremendous Breaking News! Update - It's fake! Damn.

Actually, I don't know how new or old this news is. I just know that it is great.

Update - I have been informed by reliable sources that this news is unfortunately fake. Still, a boy can dream. Therefore, it will remain posted.

Star Wars - The Force Unleashed (The Video Game)

OMFG! Forget the Clone Wars. This is it. Too bad it's not a movie. I know what I will be doing on September 16th.

New show obsession alert!



I maybe a year late, but the way I see it, I am just in time. My wife and I have gotten hooked on MAD MEN. My friend Paul's been talking to us about this show since it first started airing last summer on AMC. We are halfway through Season 1 and lucky for us Season 2 starts on July 27th.

For those who don't know, MAD MEN is a drama that takes place in the 1960's at the fictional New York advertising agency Sterling Cooper. It centers on Don Draper, a high-level advertising executive, and the people in his life in and out of the office.

This show is freaking amazing, from the acting, writing, costumes, set designs. The attention to detail in capturing the era is amazing. The writer's strike took away my favorites for this summer namely RESCUE ME and ENTOURAGE, but MAD MEN is definitely a worthy fill in. In all fairness, the current RESCUE ME minisodes are some of the funniest sh*t on TV right now and ENTOURAGE is only delayed until September.

In short, MAD MEN is riveting and required television.

New Blu-Ray Purchase














I just picked up the BATMAN BEGINS Blu-Ray disc. If you haven't already figured it out, I am convinced that THE DARK KNIGHT will be the second coming. It will be the Empire to BB's New Hope. Yes, yes. I believe it will be that good.

Now let's lay all the cards on the table, I already own BATMAN BEGINS on DVD and HD-DVD (OCD anyone?). The primary reason to pick this release up is because it contains the 6 minute IMAX prologue for THE DARK KNIGHT in HD.

If the remaining 146 minutes of THE DARK KNIGHT are a great as the prologue then we are in for on hell of a film. July 18th can't get here soon enough.

My Baby Girl is 8 months old today!!!!!

Happy 8 month birthday sweetheart!

Mommy and Daddy love you dearly! (and you too Butch)

You are the light of our lives!

On July 11th, it shall be mine. Oh yes, it shall be mine.

Old Friends

I decided to rummage through my photos yesterday to see if I can find some good stuff and I came across some classics that should bring back a lot of memories. You see, back in the day my dear friend, Aris and I were inseparable. In addition to that, we were both idiots but we had a great time growing up in NYC.

Now, we are both fathers and time has brought on new adventures and challenges for each of us. And even though we live far apart, the memories of our childhood/adolesence are never far from my mind and heart. If our children are able to have friendships like ours, then they're in for a helluva an amazing time.

Aris, you are my brother and I love you dearly. Miss you man.

Here's to the last 27 years. I hope these pictures bring a smile to your face.

Do you hear that faint sound echoing in the wind? I think you can make it out.. ling-ling-ling...
