Sleeping With The Enemy

Ok, I know that the title is misleading because my wife is extremely talented (You have to see the Julia Roberts movie with the same name to get the reference). I am mocking her in this video because to be quite honest, I'm the one that insists that everything is organized. Watch the show to see how scattered scripts on the desk drive me batty. Anywho, what I love is that my wife makes cute little labels FOR EVERYTHING. I came home one day and saw this and I had to share.

Good Golly Ima Gonna Miss Holly

My girl Holly Hannula's last day was Friday. She is really a fun chicky and I'm going to miss her for sure. the silver lining is the fact that Holly is headed out West and you're going to see a whole 'lot more of her.

The Best Ant on the Road is the BlueAnt
Road safety has been getting a lot of press lately.  With Oprah's push to end "texting and driving" is now become a big topic as is should be.  Keeping your eye on the road and not the cell phone will reduce accidents and save lives.  That's where technology comes in.

If you're fortunate enough to have a built-in in car Bluetooth communication system, ie a speaker phone built into your car stereo, then go ahead and skip this post.  But if you don't, like myself, then you need to start marching in line with the Ant... The Blue Ant S4.

I've reviewed other Bluetooth speaker systems and I think the BlueAnt S4 is the best.  Why? Clarity, ease of setup and, of course, functionality.  The BlueAnt S4 features a sensitivity setting which will eliminate background noise and listen to your voice with clarity.  "BlueAnt, speak to me." is all you say to activate its functions.  That's right.  That's all you say.  You might be like myself where you forget the commands to get the function you want to perform.  That's cool, because you just say "What can I say?"
and it lists out what functions you can use.  Since its Bluetooth, you don't have to worry about pairing  after the initial setup, so long as you keep your phone's Bluetooth function on.  It will let you know its paired once you come in signal distance.  And talk about distance.  I have to remember to turn it off when I pull into my garage as it still picks it up when I am in my den at home.  That's strength.   There is a battery saving mode too so you won't have to worry about charging.

If you have an Andriod phone, there are Apps you can download that will read your email and texts through the speaker.  There is a free iPhone app that does the same, however, the premium service to read email and text does cost you some cash... up to $10.

All in all, with all these great features, the BlueAnt S4 car speaker is top notch.  Trust me, this is the one you want as it will delivers safety, superb functionality and to be quite honest, a companion on those long drives (I sometimes talk to it just to break up the silence, just don't tell anyone that.)

Mr. Connection - Yeah that's me
If any of you know me personally, or maybe you watch the show, you know that I am a HUGE "Techy".  I'm labeled the "Tech Geek" on the show and its actually a badge of honor for me.  I think I've always been that way since I was kid.  Technology amazes me.  Sometimes it confuses me. But that's what I dig about it because it makes me learn more about a gadget and how it works.

So I was challenged by my friends at AT&T (I should mention that I was already an AT&T customer prior to this) to "Lose the Laptop Challenge".  What? Give up my portal to the world? The one thing that I use everyday? The lifeline to me and the rest of the world?!?  After they told me to calm down, they said that they've got a great device that's going to keep me connected but do it all in the palm of my hand.  They let me borrow the new HTC Tilt 2.  Almost everything that I would get from my laptop, I can get from the HTC.  Considering that I had a trip to Roswell, NM, I was intrigued as I wouldn't have to lug around my laptop, but I could still get everything I needed.

I like a challenge.  However, after I set everything up, it wasn't much of a challenge at all.  I was able to get email from all four of my email accounts.  INCLUDING my Microsoft Outlook info off of the company's server.  The info was "pushed" to me, meaning, I didn't have to go retrieve it.  Someone sends me an email to my work computer - boom - it goes to the HTC... even in Roswell, NM. (No alien interception) Very cool.

One feature that I dig is the fact the the Tilt 2 actually looks like a laptop.  It folds open with the "monitor" or in case the screen is facing to me and the keyboard is open.  You might have seen it on my desk in the Weather Center opened as such.  The Bluetooth connectivity allowed me to hook up my BT earpiece and it was super fast.  No lag time. The apps I was able to download allowed me to stay connected with Facebook and Twitter, which y'all know I am on 23 out of 24 hours a day!

So, I lost my laptop.  Not literally, I know exactly where its at but for one week I had it all in my hand.  This phone is great for anyone that needs to have that connectivity with them.  Whether its a mom that wants to take some really cool pictures, have easy access to them, or may want to check the email the teacher sent to her about the kid's homework.  Its all there.  On the road, in the house.

      Now, hopefully that will give you a good idea what the HTC Tilt 2 can do.  Now there's a way for YOU to see what ELSE it can do for you.  Including a chance to win FIVE GRAND. Yeah.  That's $5000.  Here's the skinny: Go to http://www.losethelaptop.com/ . Read up on what some real life parents and even some small business bloggers have been “losing the laptop” over the last four months. All you have to do is vote for your favorite blogger and then YOU enter for your chance to win $5,000.  Yeah.  YOU can win the five grand.  Even cooler, they're letting you vote once per day so that's going to increase your odds of winning.  If you have one of those Tilt2s, tell them all the cool things you do from your phone like I did.  (Don't worry, I can't win the $5000 so you and I aren't competing!)   If you don't have an HTC Tilt2 smartphone yet, tell them why you want a Tilt2 device and how its going to help you "Lose the Laptop".  Good luck. Have some fun with it.

The Neighborhood Rat Pack

Our neighborhood has events put at the park all the time. it's cool. I'm digging this months. it's the Rat Pack performing (right now Dean Martin is finishing and YES Mr. Sammy Davis Jr. has taken the stage).
They're all professional. I think it'd be weird if my neighbor was Frank Sinatra.

4000

David Hosmer wants to consume 4000 calories for our Outback dinner. After what you see here, he has a little under 200 to beat his goal. I'm going to order the Chocolate Thunder from Down Under for him because that's what friends do.

I'm under 600 in case your wondering or judging.

Chrissy: "I'm running late...had to pick up some worms"
Mitch: "for what?"
Chrissy: "for the catfish"
Mitch: "you're bringing catfish when you go out?"
Chrissy: "that's why I'm late."
