Muddle School

Mr Instapundit seems to be having trouble finding anything about books or help for boys entering Middle School while information for girls seems to be found in abundance. Well, Glenn, I can personally tell you why that is although my view may be tainted.  Middle School is more about survival for boys than finding tips […]

Ok, I think I’ve found my new favorite car.  Uh….wowsy! RKcoupe I’ve always been a fan of 911’s.  This is just amazing.

Cisco will fail in the SMB space

The Rocket!

Chillin out reading my copy of Ultimate Garages today I came across a car in Jay Leno’s garage.  A little red thing that kind of looked like an older F1 car but had modern gear.  Unfortunately there’s no mention of what it is in the book!  A little digging and I present you with the […]
