Reusable Starbucks Cup

This is a very cool REUSABLE mug that was being sold at our Starbucks/Target.  Jenifer found me a neat “generic” mug that looks like a throw-away coffee cup.  She gave it to me for Christmas.  Mine is microwavable (a definite advantage).  These from Starbucks are cool…I like the design a lot, but they are not microwavable.  I like the idea.









Boxee Box, very interesting...

As I have told many family and friends…I despise my cable company and the whole idea I have to pay for a service that is ALSO ad supported.  Does it not seem that the content providers and the cable industry are double dipping into our pockets?

Needless to say, I am very optimistic about this new product by Boxee/D-link.  The Boxee Box is interesting…allowing the streaming of TV shows and other content to this computer, then to be displayed on the home television.  If the reports are correct, and this hardware is truly going to be retailing for under $200, then I may have to make the investment.


Did you know that the Publix tea (in the deli) are decaffeinated?  I didn’t.  I called to make a suggestion that they carry decaffeinated teas, and I got a response saying that they already are!  I’m surprised that they don’t put that on the label.

Festivus is getting way too commercialized. You’re ruining it PEOPLE!




Ghosts of Shopping Past

An art exhibit in Chicago features photos of a mall I remember going to when I was growing up in northeast Ohio.  Rolling Acres Mall was on the outskirts of Akron.
