Yum.
This is one of many meals I had a few weeks ago while in Key West. It’s a Lox Omelette from Sarabeth’‘s a breakfast/brunch type place that surprisingly enough started in and has many more outposts in New York.

Aug 01 2006
The web was abuzz yesterday and the day before with the latest product announcement from Motorola: The MOTOFONE. It’s sleek, sexy looks have no doubt won the aesthetic hearts of many but more importantly and as pointed out by Greg Storey, “Finally, a cell phone that’s a phone.”
If you’ve known me for a while, you’ll know that I was reluctant about having a cell phone. For a while I fought against having one, preferring the solid connection of a land line and the privacy that came with not being able to be reached anywhere and anytime.

- I'm now reading a story on microblogs
Andrew and I were interviewed for an article about Twitter recently. It’s now live on the Chicago Tribune website. I sound like a buzzkill at the end. In a good way, to me, anyway.
- Ten Things Men Need to Stop
“Talking about sports using war analogies – athletes are not ‘warriors’ and the court is not a ‘battle zone.’ and “Drinking light beer. There is nothing good about light beer, especially when it’s called ‘lite.’ Our taste buds are one thing – why do you have to assault the English language as well?”
