Best quote ever:
“Yo, come check this OUT. You’ll cry yourself to sleep!”

The video clip below is hilarious. And what makes it hilarious is that I’ve actually met no fewer than a half-dozen hardcore Mac-o-philes that have actually communicated the same sentiment to me in some form.
In fact, I actually had someone tell me:
“Damn, the Surface Book looks utterly BALLER. Straight up sick.
<silence>
“Screw you and your tasty Surface Book, dude.”
<laughter>
“Now if you guys come out with a Surface Phone, I’m gonna punch someone.”
<laughter>
“Then I’m gonna throw money at you, dammit.”
My cousins own a shave ice store in Hawaii – you may have heard of it. It’s called Matsumoto’s Shave Ice in Haleiwa and they recently had a grand reopening.
If you’ve ever been to the store, you know that this is dramatically different from it’s old appearance.
It’s pretty much a must-see destination in Hawaii if you’re travelling Oahu. It’s been showcased in dozens of TV shows & movies, and visited by celebrities around the world. (The photos to prove it are on the wall of the store):
Recently I’ve spent a lot of time listening to Audiobook via Audible while driving. I look forward to my drive time because it’s usually the only time I’ll listen to them. (I hate taking conference calls or making phone calls on the road so this is a great way to pass the time.)
If you like intelligent science fiction, documentaries/memoirs, or dogs… I think you’ll find yourself aligned with a lot of my preferences as well. Check out some of these great audiobooks.

Illegal Procedure: A Sports Agent Comes Clean on the Dirty Business of College Football – Written by: Josh Luchs, James Dale For 15 years, sports agent Josh Luchs made illegal deals with numerous college athletes, from top-tier, nationally recognized phenoms to late-round draft picks. Then, in October 2010, Luchs wrote a confessional article in Sports Illustrated, telling the truth about what he did and didn’t do. Since then, he has taken on a new role: whistle-blowing, truth-telling reformer. In telling his own story, Luchs here pulls back the curtain on the real economy – and the broken system – of college football. |

Ready Player One – Written by: Ernest Cline Narrated by: Wil Wheaton At once wildly original and stuffed with irresistible nostalgia, Ready Player One is a spectacularly genre-busting, ambitious, and charming debut—part quest novel, part love story, and part virtual space opera set in a universe where spell-slinging mages battle giant Japanese robots, entire planets are inspired by Blade Runner, and flying DeLoreans achieve light speed. |
