home away from home

If I think about it, I spend more time at the office or on the road then I do at home. Pretty sad if you think about it. But it's comforting to know you have cool co-workers to spend most of the day with. I present to you... the Integrated Real Estate Solutions team (minus our 3 awesome bosses):

Roar Heard Around the World

He's done it again folks! When Tiger made that 15 foot put on 18 during the final round of the US Open to take the Open into playoffs, I literally jumped out of my sofa and screamed with joy (no one was home). He was still recovering from his knee surgery, and this was his first time playing since his surgery. He faced Rocco Mediate in an 18-hole playoff that went on for an additional sudden death hole... Tiger pulled through with clutch shots and extraordinary putts. Down by 1 stroke moving onto the 18th hole of the playoff, Tiger clinches the birdie for the second day in a row to take Rocco for one more hole... Sudden Death! And "suddenly" Rocco couldn't hold his ground and hit two bad shots. Tiger kept focus and parred out, while Rocco bogeyd.

Is Tiger Woods the greatest athlete of our time? My opinion: YES. There is no match for his ability as a golfer... and there is no match for the clutchness of any sport. Just as Michael Phelps was born to be a swimmer, Tiger Woods was born to be the greatest golfer to ever walk on grass... and possibly the greatest athlete to ever compete.

Congrats Tiger!

3G = disappointment

Apple announced the second generation of the iphone today: iphone 3G. What's changed? Well, a few things actually.

1. 3G upgrade (obviously)

2. Built-in GPS

3. Flush earphone jack

4. Minor exterior facelift

5. Price drop to $199 and $299

Yea... that's about it. What the heck? I am utterly disappointed by this upgrade. I wanted something spectacular... like the rumored video chat capability! I guess they have to save something for next time. 

I think I'll actually pass on this upgrade... although, it's still a beautiful piece of machine.

Mac for life!

Upgrade

So my first experience with a digital SLR was from a Nikon D40X... it was a good run for about a year, but I've noticed a tone difference between canon's and nikon's, and personally, I like photos that were taken with a canon better. So... I sold my nikon, and am now going to upgrade to this canon 40d. I'm trying to take photography a little more seriously and hopefully having a nice camera will motivate me to learn more about it.

Nathan, i know you read this, and i know you're a nikon guy... so don't hate me... haha.
