If you’ve got a spare $2,900, please consider buying me this:

That would be a handmade, musical drum table. Video at the link too.

Dave Barry’s History of the Millenium (Audiobook), Dave Barry

posted on March 22, 2008 in Books // View Comments

More like 2.5 stars. I probably shouldn’t count this as a read book since I listened to it, but either way, it’s an easy listen/read, as are most of Barry’s works. But he knows funny, and hyperbole, and brilliance disguised as ignorance. Who wouldn’t want Dave Barry to be their history teacher? Still, after reading Big Trouble and Tricky Business, I’d recommend his fiction over his non-fiction.

Save the Face or Save the MacBook Air?

posted on March 18, 2008 in Funny Technology Websites // View Comments

Intrepid, determined, professional TV reporter Charlie Rose was presented with this moral dilemma.

Click through to see if he thought his face or his MacBook Air was more important, then come back.

The story reminds me of one I heard from a professional wedding videographer I had the pleasure of working alongside for a season. He was shooting a wedding at some exotic locale, running along some sandy shoreline, trying desperately to get from point A to point B before whatever shot he needed could escape. His feet flew out from under him, and, carrying a $20,000 camera (or more), did what was required of his profession: He landed with a thud, and maybe a few cracks, but the camera survived.

Here’s to hoping Apple can get Mr. Rose something for his pain.
