My Star Wars Theory
Warning: SPOILERS! I went, with my wife, to see The Force Awakens on 19 December, in Imax 3D. Because Imax. I’m generally not a 3D fan, and the first couple minutes (fortunately just previews) reminded me why. But I will say …
Cell Phone Companies Suck
Looks like AT&T…hell ALL the cell providers…are going to finally push me from iPhone to Android. Why? I’ve been happy with my iPhone 5, but lately the power button’s been on the fritz – damn thing won’t turn off when …
