Watching
I was at Borders last week perusing the periodicals where I became aware of the plethora of magazine titles about watches:
WatchTime
International Watch
QP
Revolution
Uhren
Chronos
00/24
Montres
GMT
After perusing the new styles and mechanisms, as well as old antiques, I decided I think i might like to own a watch that costs as much as my car. I do like the Omega Seamaster 300 M, Jager-LeCoultre AMVOX2 DBS, and the Patek Phillipe Calatrava. My favorite (so far, in this onset of chronometrophilia) is the Breguet Tradition 7047BA:
An Irish Goodbye
Irish goodbye is a slang term with its origins in the Irish-American neighborhoods of New York City and Boston. The term refers to the practice of inconspicuously leaving a place where one has gathered with friends (usually for quite some time) without ever formally announcing that one is leaving. Note that an Irish goodbye requires a conscious decision by the person to leave without bidding adieu. It is a decision that reflects the leaver’s dislike of making himself the center of attention and an austere disdain for showy and perhaps empty formalities. The Irish goodbye also allows a person to disappear from a function with the utmost expediency without spending extra time on “thank-yous” etc.
Election Day
It’s about 7 years since I’ve received ashes on my forehead. I revel in the thought of all Americans demonstrating their enthusiasm to vote with some type of symbol comparable to a Catholic on Ash Wednesday. Lets lose the electronic voting machines and use our fingers like they do in Iraq and Africa!

Diarrhea Pearlman
I think its a safe bet to assume Rhea Pearlman had the burden of carrying this terrible nickname in the Brooklyn playground circuit.
Bob Dylan – Mississippi
I have been really enjoying Bob Dylan’s newest Bootleg Series, Volume 8 called Tell Tale Signs. The four songs that were produced in the Time Out Mind sessions strike me as being the best and reaffirm it has one of my favorite albums.
Disc #3 only available with the deluxe set is really only for completists, but does add some dimension to “Mississippi” (#3rd version), and “Most of the Time.”
Here is the free mp3 (Amazon) that got me hooked:
Starting Over
I have finally ended my relationship with Web.com and moved by website to BlueHost.com its been nothing but a blessing. So far everything has been better: responsiveness, features, capacity, and bandwidth. But the two best reasons are cost (I will be saving $100 over the next two years!) and customer support (they have been a extremely helpful with any question I’ve had). Web.com had the worst customer support and couldn’t resolve a ticket in less than 5 days.
Hopefully, I will be able to take advantage of all the new features and provide better more interesting content in the near future.
