Will The Real BarackBerry, Please Stand Up!

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

What’s the big fuss about Barack Obama’s BlackBerry? The media has gone into a whirlwind of reports about what the new President can and cannot do with his electronic device. They even suggested a spy-proof smartphone called the Sectéra® Edge™ as a replacement. How about the “Baby Blackberry” to end all arguments?

The consensus seems to indicate Barack Obama uses one of the 8700 series:

Sectéra® Edge™ - what the media calls “BarackBerry”:

The Florida Gators Are College Football’s National Champions!

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

The shootout never happened. It was the defenses that shined. Both Tim Tebow and Sam Bradford were intercepted twice. A couple of goal line stands by the Florida Gators were huge.

Florida beat out Oklahoma 24-14 for their second National Championship in the last three seasons. Superman Tim Tebow had mediocre stats, but the game difference was his competitive fire. And it rubbed off his teammates.

Injured Percy Harvin (well, he claimed he was 90% recovered) was once again sensational, and, like Tim Tebow, gave the Gators a little bit of oomph to topple the Oklahoma Sooners.

Go Gators!
