  • What is cool? Not sure.  But here is what I like this week: Gmail Notifier for Mac.  Dude.  Everything for Mac. Taking yoga @ Yoga Works.  Love the idea of it.  Just have to do it. Southwest Rapid Rewards Vodka & Tab Traddies with the Phi:

  • But here is something that is not. Thanks to Cathy. Scrapbookers are cool. Obvi.

  • Both of my classes mentioned equilibrium today. First in Yoga.  We were doing Vrksasana/tree pose.  And it is all about finding an equilibrium. Balance.  When you focus your gaze and breathe it is achieved. Second in Econ.  We were taking a midterm.  And it is all about finding the right answer to the multiple choice…

  • My computer is dying. But I keep trying to save it. Like George O’Malley on Grey’s, I will want to tell the fam that I did all I could…before I gleefully replace with a MacBook. Cheers to Symantec AntiVirus. Because really, it is the Code Blue Respond Team that will soon become obsolete.

  • I salute you, Mr. Steve Jobs, for two reasons.  Firstly, for the 4GB iPod Nano.  And secondly, for the speech you gave to the 2005 graduating class at Stanford University.  In it, you said that "the only way to do great work is to love what you do." I will assume that you gave this…

  • "The only way to do great work is to love what you do.  If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking.  Don’t settle.  As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it."  – Steve Jobs I shall discuss in further detail later.
