We'll use the open E and open B strings as our droning notes, and learn to play "Mama I'm Coming Home" by Ozzy Osbourne. You'll get practice with your upstroke picking as well as arpeggiating chords, which is picking instead of strumming. Play "Mama I'm Coming Home" on the acoustic guitar.

Simple Times: Crafts For Poor People is a tongue-in-cheek DIY guide to projects like seashell toilet seat covers and ringworm pompons.

I've been curious to watch one of these famed '3D' games for a while now. Last April at NAB, I attended several 3D panels and folks from ESPN suggested that one of the strongest experiences that would bring 3D into the home would be live sports. I've missed opportunities to watch the PGA Masters broacasts, and NCAA games, but being a hardcore Soccer (Futbol) fan, I've been most excited about this possibility. It did not disappoint, but not without some concessions. I will be as detailed as po...
Spent the weekend with Sprint's new phone, the HTC Evo G4. Specification wise, it's better than Verizon's Incredible and T-Mobile's HD2.

The iphone might have a better battery life but the Evo has an unlimited data plan, unlike AT&T's new tier pricing structure.
