I will most likely be going to Disneyland on the 11th, I’m very very excited.
Just have a little money issue right now so I have to fix it before I go bt hopefully it will be fixed before then.
I am going to visit HP and the connected home at Disneyland.
Epson is loaning me one of their P-7000 photo viewers!!! so I am going to test it out over there.
I had a really busy week, first I had a meeting with AMD, that Radiris can tell you about. Then I had a meeting with HP and saw a really crazy guy. Then yesterday I helped Radiris post her Unboxing of the HP Touchsmart post. Which she loves by the way. I honestly can’t wait for her review to be done, so tat I can review it.
Also one of my aunts died, and I’m really pooped. I also went to the movies too. Really busy week I say really busy.
Three words, I Loved it!!!
It was great, not what I expected though but it was great. I was hoping for aliens etc and got a child molesting priest who was having visions and I won’t say anything else so that I don’t ruin the movie for you.
But I Suggest you all go see it, it was great.
I also saw Journey to the Center of the Earth, it was also good but not as good as the X-Files.
Check out the unboxing pictures I posted on HardwareGeeks.com
It’s a Nikon D60, I can’t wait to get started taking pictures.
It is steamy hot today in NYC, and if my Elevator was not broken my Puerto Rican ass would be at a pool or the beach.
But because it’s broke I decided to stay home unless someting good comes up and lures me outside.
It’s about 94 degrees F here in NYC for those of you who are curious and I think the Humidity level is 90%.
I am reviewing Top Spin 3 for HardwareGeeks, and I got the game for the Wii.
Anywho I have been playing non stop and my arm is killing me.
I guss it is true what they say, not only will you go blind but you might hurt your arm when you play with your wii.
I have a busy week coming up, a lot of meetings all week and I need to get some reviews done for HardwareGeeks.com and CellRants.com.
Some of the reviews I have coming up are for, two tsohiba notebooks, livescribe pen, Alienware m15x, eikon finger print reader (Radiris Might do this), Flatwire surround sound cables, Seagate Blackarmor drive all for HardwareGeeks.
I also have the Samsung Instinct (Sprint) and a Palm Centro (at&t), for cellrants.com to review.
I decided not to go to see Bon Jovi, didn’t feel like it.
But I did just watch a hell of a baseball game, Mets vs Rockies. WOOHOO mets won 8 in a row 8 in a row!!!!!!!!
I am going to see them again on the 11th of August I have tickets, they are making up a game against the Pirates. I hope we kick their butts then too!!!!!!!
All Star Weekend NYC
I have tickets to see Bon Jovi in central park this weekend. The tickets were free but they are only letting 50,000 people in and gave out 67,000 tickets. How dumb is that?
Anywho I will probably give my tickets away since I don’t want to risk it.
I just got an email from Delta, where they talk about high oil prices and blame the problem on poorly regulated market speculation.
In the email which I will copy below, Delta and 11 other airlines claim that market speculation is responsible for 30 to 60 dollars on the price of a barrel of oil.
I personally never knew about market speculation, but if it is a real problem then the feds should stop lifting restrictions on it.
I also think we as a nation (United States of America) need to do more to conserve and find alternate sources of energy.
Copy of email from Delta:
Our country is facing a possible sharp economic downturn because of skyrocketing oil and fuel prices, but by pulling together, we can all do something to help now.
For airlines, ultra-expensive fuel means thousands of lost jobs and severe reductions in air service to both large and small communities. To the broader economy, oil prices mean slower activity and widespread economic pain. This pain can be alleviated, and that is why we are taking the extraordinary step of writing this joint letter to our customers.
Since high oil prices are partly a response to normal market forces, the nation needs to focus on increased energy supplies and conservation. However, there is another side to this story because normal market forces are being dangerously amplified by poorly regulated market speculation.
Twenty years ago, 21 percent of oil contracts were purchased by speculators who trade oil on paper with no intention of ever taking delivery. Today, oil speculators purchase 66 percent of all oil futures contracts, and that reflects just the transactions that are known. Speculators buy up large amounts of oil and then sell it to each other again and again. A barrel of oil may trade 20-plus times before it is delivered and used; the price goes up with each trade and consumers pick up the final tab. Some market experts estimate that current prices reflect as much as $30 to $60 per barrel in unnecessary speculative costs.
Over seventy years ago, Congress established regulations to control excessive, largely unchecked market speculation and manipulation. However, over the past two decades, these regulatory limits have been weakened or removed. We believe that restoring and enforcing these limits, along with several other modest measures, will provide more disclosure, transparency and sound market oversight. Together, these reforms will help cool the over-heated oil market and permit the economy to prosper.
The nation needs to pull together to reform the oil markets and solve this growing problem.
