Annoying Recruiters (XpertTech)
A while back I was conducting a job search and put myself out there on the job boards. Since then I have found a position which I am happy with and have marked such on all job boards. After closing down my job search I was contacted by XpertTech about a position which did not fit with my experience. -
Google Voice and Motorcycles
Over the last few years I have been getting more and more into riding motorcycles. They are quite a lot of fun to zip around on in the nice weather. Last year I went out and bought a pair of ScalaRider Pro’s which allow me to attach it to my helmet and have Bluetooth connectivity so that I can make and receive calls all by pressing one button and using my voice to dial. Having a setup like this is amazing, I no longer have to pull off the road and take off my helmet and gloves to find out who is calling me. I can press one button and say hello and carry on with my ride.

Call of Duty: Elite
For a while now I have been debating on getting the Premium Subscription to the COD Elite service. I went out last night and picked up a membership at Gamestop and came home to set it up. This morning the new maps dropped and I immediately installed them to try them out. I played a few rounds on them and then handed the controller over to the kid so he could play. About 5 minutes later he was calling me out to the living room as he could not figure out how to get the new maps to play.

Epic Failure: Product Design
I have been meaning to write about this since last Easter but the product was kicking around my house and forgotten about for a while. The other day I stumbled upon it and thought I would bring it into work and share it with my co-workers. Everyone thought it was funny and an epic failure.

Motorcycle Buying Process
You may or may not have read that my motorcycle was stolen on July 7th. but it was and this entry will be all about the experience I had while shopping for a new motorcycle. When my 2008 CBR 600RR was stolen I was more heartbroken than angry, don’t get me wrong I was pissed but it hurt more. I filed the police report, contacted my insurance company (Progressive) and started the claims process. Two weeks later I had a check in my hand from Progressive to go out and get a new bike.

Was I Too Harsh?
I am sure I am not the only guy who is blasted via email and websites such as LinkedIn by recruiters who have not even taken a second to look at your resume. Today I was blasted about a C# .NET position which is NOT on my resume at all.

Lynn Massachusetts Police
If you have been reading my posts on my site you will know that almost 2 weeks ago my 2008 CBR 600RR was stolen. I called the police in Lynn, MA to report the stolen motorcycle and informed the dispatcher that I needed to have an officer sent over because the motorcycle had been stolen. The dispatcher told me that they were not going to send an officer over to the home for that as there was paperwork that I needed to fill out.

Site Downtime Caused by Plugin
To all of my readers who noticed my site was showing the 404 page for every page on the site I apologize. The issue is now fixed. I noticed the issue this morning and started to diagnose the issue. It appears that a plugin I recently installed caused the issues.
I also waste time on the following social networks:
