Every Monday at 10CET, NPR Worldwide plays Le Show with Harry Shearer (yeah, you know the guy). At first, I started grinding my teeth since one can tell he’s simply reading the paper to us, his audience, rife with “snarky” comments and cheap shots. I guess he’s supposed to be funny and Le Show is […]

(This is a reenactment of what my experience was like)
I just discovered that Ricochet ist tot, according to Boing Boing Gadgets, WiFi News, and TechDirt. Wow, I had both the original Ricochet (the brick) and then the later “Crickochet” (because it was much smaller — shown above) and ran it on my Compaq Aero […]

Due Forni is a real find. Last night, after house-painting and then going to a club to listen […]
I loved my XM radio when I lived in the US. I listened to America Right and Talk Radio and fell in love with Coast to Coast AM via XM because I would never lower myself to listen to AM. So, a couple years ago I tried dating a Sirius-listener and it didn’t work out. […]

Before I start, check out Sean Connery’s costume (left). Zardoz is the most important movie nobody (I know) has seen. Forget that there is a lot of nakedness and topless women; or, that you get to see a super-buff, 1974-era, Sean Connery running around for more than two hours in a pair of underwear; this […]
CNN Radio Called Me to Comment from Berlin
I just got a call from CNN Radio to comment on Microsoft’s withdrawal of the offer for Yahoo! I love being on the Radio. I am lucky enough to be on CNN’s list as a technologist and total geek so CNN Radio sometimes calls me if they need a geek with a good voice. […]
