I’ve never joined a cult before. The Scientologists tried to get me once, but I didn’t submit.
I think my perfect record might be coming to an end.
A few weeks ago, I bought a new computer. Not just a computer, A Mac. And in less than a month, I have bought into the entire Apple Dogma.
I love how easy my Mac is to use. It turns on immediately. It takes no time to load. It never gives my the “hourglass” or it’s Apple equivalent “the pinwheel.”
I love how great the customer service is. The salesman at the Apple store helped me find exactly what I wanted and even told me I didn’t need to buy the super top of the line computer, because a cheaper one would serve my purposes fine. Last week, I spent an hour on the phone with “Apple Care,” getting a few questions answered. First of all, it was a guy in California named Bert, not a guy at a call center in Asia named “Jim.” Bert didn’t know the answers to all my questions. But, when he was stumped, he put me on hold and asked someone else. Then he came back and talked me through what I was doing. Throughout the entire conversation, he was emailing me articles that he thought might be helpful. Like I said, it was an hour long conversation. But it was an absolute pleasure the entire time.
I love how my computer does things I can’t explain. When I bought my new Macbook Pro, the Apple store did a data transfer from my old PC, but for whatever reason, my entire Itunes library didn’t move to the new computer. Never fear! ITunes has something called homeshare. If both computers are on and using the same network, you can move music back and forth. It even works for songs that I’ve loaded onto one of the computers from a CD. HOW DOES IT WORK? Isn’t that physical data? How does it move through space?
I even love what my Mac looks like. It’s so light and silver and sleek!
Adidas has launched a new ad campaign known as “call the shots.” The premise being that the worlds top soccer players have to complete tasks that their fans submit. In the first installment of the series we get to see two Manchester United players give it a whirl.
Check out Dimitar Berbatov give us his best Godfather.
The Bruins just won a thrilling game 7 in overtime and this is what Jack Edwards rants on about? Wasn’t Boston the favorite in the series? Maybe he is bitter about not getting an invite to the Royal Wedding.
BTW, I thought announcers traveled with the team. Why was Edwards driving back from Montreal instead of being on the team charter?
Admit it. You spend a lot of time thinking about Balls. You spend all night looking for them on TV. You spend all day searching for them on the internet. You may even spend your free time playing with them, alone or with a partner.
One of my favorite songs is Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up.” And when you add in one of my favorite WWE Superstars of all time Stone Cold Steve Austin lipsyncing it…you have me hook, line, and sinker.
If you have been watching TNT’s NBA coverage lately you might have noticed that Charles Barkley has been shedding the pounds. And thanks to EDSBS we get to see how he does it. CrossFit Atlanta is no joke.
Although it might not look pretty at times, Chuck is putting in the work.
