It was too soon for Anna, having two children so close in age that you're changing two sets of diapers. Eventually, nature trumped the debate - we were making Elena a big sister in `08. The following months went by much differently than Elena's pregnancy. It was the second time around, so we already knew the dietary change, the eventless doctor visits, and the eventual tummy that'd poke out to spark conversation in every supermarket...

Yet, in my eyes, most of it seems to be crap. Enter the Blackberry. I got one recently for work. At first I was reluctant because I cringe everytime I see a douchebag thumbing out an email while ordering a sandwich from the supermarket deli. But, for work reasons, it made sense to be even more...

If you can clearly draw a line between the good guys and the guys you can shoot, I'll enjoy it. Your GTA, Mercenaries, Killzone... it's all good. Of course, I also have a 1 years walking around the house who'll soon have a little brother, and they'll be wanting in on the killing frenzies also. While I'd sit them down in front of a bloody shoot-em-up before I sit them down in front of Hannah Montana...

But, I'm great at observing trends and personalities in the business. Information Technology draws an odd group of folks - not just the Professor Frinks and Nick Burns's of the crowd, but a lot of other personality types and skills you wouldn't necessarily expect if you haven't already shared an office with these people. Whether these folks... Fri, 23 Nov 2007 00:00:00 CST http://www.georgekovats.com/main.php?link=071123 http://www.georgekovats.com/main.php?link=071030 ...

Being a new inductee to "parenthood", my tastes are getting blander by the minute, leaing me to two kinds of cable shows: shows about trophy wives throwing tons of expendable income and poor taste at a house "flip" project, and shows about cooking. Food Network has a whole cast of TV cooking personalities, but like any buffet (the only food analogy, I swear), they ain't all created equal. You'd...
