Not Again!











Not again. An Eagle Ray breached and landed on top of a women in a boat. Fortunately, she was not killed like the women I discussed in a blog post back in 2008.

Eagle Ray are very playful and often show off for boaters and divers. When they breach they look as if they are flying.

This particular Eagle Ray was eight feet wide and weighed in at 300 pounds. This lady is lucky to be alive!

Max OS X Turns 10 Today



















Mac OS X turned 10 today. It is hard to believe that one of the world's best operating systems has been around for 10 years already. It seems like it was just yesterday that Cheetah came out. Well, not literally yesterday but it certainly doesn't seem like 10 years. :-)

AT&T To Acquire T-Mobile



















AT&T has reached an agreement to purchase T-Mobile USA for $39 Billion. The deal calls for Deutsche Telekom to receive an approximately 8 percent equity stake in AT&T.

In my opinion, this is horrible news! I have been with T-Mobile since they bought VoiceStream. T-Mobile has consistently had one of the best customer satisfaction ratings while AT&T has one of the worst.

If AT&T leaves T-Mobile to run as a separate entity this might work. If not, watch out. T-Mobile's customer service with devolve into the depths of customer service hell that is AT&T.

Singer Porsche 911












This is a dream car. A Singer Porsche 911. It is build on an early 1990's 911 but looks like a 70's era 911. It is re-bodied in carbon fiber and has 427hp. This has all the technology of a modern super car with the look of a classic.

I am afraid to ask how much it costs!
