Tablet PCs for Real Estate Agents
I’ve had a few agents contact me lately about the Treo VS the Tablet PC products.
Tablets may be a bit off the Treo topic, but they are dead-on the mobility issue…and, it’s something I’ve been looking at myself lately… trying to decide if a tablet makes sense for me, and if it’s a "now" item or a "soon" item on my wish list.
What I’m dying to see, what I’ve been scouring the reviews, the "upcoming products" and the other geeky sites and pubs to find is a truly great tablet PC.
Not just any old tablet — I want one that will work for me and that I can recommend to my clients. For me, it would have to have… Continue reading

The Effects of Organic Food and Typical American (Junk) Food on Children
Yesterday, we went to my sister-in-laws for the holiday meal. We took a broccoli and beef dish, zucchini with pepper jack cheese, a vegetable muffin with cashews and Wayne’s famous pasta salad (a regular recipe and an organic one he made for us).
Alex and I ate only the organic versions, as usual. Wayne (also as usual) sampled some of the typical fare. He usually eats organic with us, but occasionally eats regular food when he’s out. He doesn’t go nuts, though. Since we have started eating organic, he says he only really misses two things — bread and ham. I bake bread occasionally, but he’s SOL on the ham (simply out of luck, that is). So he ate ham at dinner.
He and Alex hated missing out on ice cream, so we got a machine and I make vanilla from organic cream and milk with organic vanilla and local honey.
We pack Alex’s lunch so she doesn’t eat the crap at school — have you SEEN the lunch menus lately?!?! And my seven-year-old reads the labels on her food herself and if she can’t pronounce it, or if she doesn’t know what it is, she doesn’t eat it. It’s pretty amazing.
Anyway, there’s the background and after Thanksgiving dinner, we went to visit my friend, Daphne. A member of her family was seriously ill and in the hospital in Lexington. Alex wanted to stay with Daphne and I said no. So she (*being a 7-yea-old girl who had not had dessert on Thanksgiving*) said she wanted to stay and eat the food she really wanted with Daphne, not the old organic junk I made her eat… Continue reading
