Be honest, do you need a wearable? – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2014/03/wearables-do-we-need-them

March 20, 2014. March 20, 2014. Be honest, do you need a wearable? So I’m reading that wearables are now official since Google has talked about it…finally, the Dick Tracy watch. Is a reality. That’s great and all but some of the points in the Android video had me thinking about myself and what I feel are “most people.”. But after the short list just gets unusual to me. Swipe…next meeting time. Swipe…time to travel there. Swipe…email blurb. Or how long it takes to get there? I’m just your average 9-...

The WWE Network, it’s worth it – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2014/03/the-wwe-network-is-worth-it

March 7, 2014. March 7, 2014. The WWE Network, it’s worth it. As much as a wrestling fan as I am (going on 30 years now), I only watch about 2-hours of wrestling per week on television…and even then not for a solid two hours. Yes, I subscribed to the WWE Network. It’s actually a really good deal. If you’re a wrestling fan at any capacity, the WWE Network will not be a waste of money. 8230;at least not yet. But after reading an article over at Grantdland. With thoughts on the Network, it got me thinking a...

104,293 miles ago… – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2015/05/old-car-new-car

May 28, 2015. May 28, 2015. 104,293 miles ago…. That’s a lot of miles…for anyone or anything. They weren’t all good miles. There were certainly some bumps (and flat tires) along the way, but it survived to see the end. But before I talk about the end, let me think about what has happened in that 100,000 mile journey…. 104,293 miles ago…. In short, life was pretty simple and pretty great. I was younger, had a good job, a hot girlfriend (just for the record, she’s still hot), a head full of hair ...8211; t...

Mister Rogers invades House of Cards – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2014/02/house-of-cards-mister-rogers-lady-elaine

February 25, 2014. In Movies and TV. February 25, 2014. Mister Rogers invades House of Cards. So I’m watching. And I’m looking at Robin Wright thinking that I’ve seen the character, Claire Underwood, someplace else. Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. It seems clear the inspiration for Claire Underwood is Lady Elaine Fairchilde. It’s the puppet come to life! Sounds like a politician to me. February 25, 2014. Related Content by Tag.

Colbert replacing Letterman, change is difficult – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2014/04/colbert-replacing-letterman

April 10, 2014. In Movies and TV. April 10, 2014. Colbert replacing Letterman, change is difficult. I don’t blame Colbert for taking over Letterman’s spot. That’s quite the opportunity but I just don’t feel it’s the right move for us, the viewer. Maybe CBS will let Colbert and his people totally rearrange the Late Show formula but I doubt it. Network television works (thinks) entirely differently that cable. What flies at 11:30PM on Comedy Central will not fly at 11:30PM on CBS. I’m not sure if I w...

For my dog Colby (2001-2015) – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2015/05/for-my-dog-colby-rip

May 5, 2015. May 5, 2015. For my dog Colby (2001-2015). Not man’s best friend. My best friend. We weren’t Colby’s first owners but we were his first family. Colby is the reason we got another dog, Roxi. Colby needed a buddy, someone that could keep up with him and Roxi was the perfect companion, for us and him. She kept him young and certainly kept him around a few years longer. Colby started what is certain to be an endless cycle of dogs for the rest of my life. Always missing you, buddy. I love you.

Make your own Fisher-Price Klip Klop track ramp – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2014/04/fisher-price-klip-klop-diy-track

April 21, 2014. April 21, 2014. Make your own Fisher-Price Klip Klop track ramp. We got our daughter a Fisher-Price Klip Klop Stable. Playset for her birthday and while she loves watching the horses bounce down the ramp, I find their simplicity fascinating. The horses are just plastic with a single hinge and a well-balanced design. When placed on the ramp, it wobbles back and forth making a “klip klop” sound. Genius and fun. I looked through my Hot Wheels stuff and found some non-skid drawer liner. The o...

I still love my tablet – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2014/02/i-still-love-my-tablet

February 11, 2014. In Movies and TV. February 11, 2014. I still love my tablet. Think that tablets are done and over with. They’re too big, too limited. I guess it depends on your expectations in the first place but I still love my tablet and use it more than my phone. I had two main purposes for wanting a tablet. One, I wanted a digital notebook. Two, I wanted one so I could build/test responsive web sites. Those two needs were met 10 fold with my iPad, which is now 2-years old for me. It’s true t...

Nintendo boss taking his lumps – Morning Toast

http://www.morningtoast.com/index.php/2014/01/nintendo-iwata-takes-pay-cut

January 29, 2014. January 29, 2014. Nintendo boss taking his lumps. Most of us aren’t C-level executives…or presidents…or vice-presidents…or any of the positions in a company that make the “big bucks.” And all too often we see the stories of execs raking in mad cash while employees are laid off and their company goes down in flames. How true those stories are is up for verification but at Nintendo it’s a little different. I read a report at Polygon. January 29, 2014. Related Content by Tag.
