I get asked alot "Rocky, What kind of gear do you travel with when your out? Then I have to start mentioning the computers I carry, why two? Why I pick some items over other and so on. I figured I was long over due for this one and it needed a well deserving blog post. As you may know, I travel extensively for my company. I Work with computers and need to stay connected at all times (I’m pretty much my own ambulatory office) My preference of Choice for computers have always been Macs. I travel with a 13" Macbook Pro (decked out). This thing is fully upgraded with a 320gig hard drive and six gigs of RAM.

I get most of my corporate emails on both of my machines and Blackberry but mostly I carry it as a preference thing. I can very well get my emails on my Acer windows machine however; I don’t have the RAW power of a computer with this as I have with my Mac. I also carry around a net book Acer Aspire One. I use my machine mainly for email purposes and to log into the backbones VPN. Although I could do this on the Mac, sometimes I have to carry my computer from rooms to room for key authentications and well, the Acer PC is only 2 pounds Vs the Mac book Pro 8 pounds. For camera, I use a Cannon 8.2 Megapixel. Its not the best in the industry but it takes good shots and it does the trick.

For camcorders I use a Sony Handy Cam. This thing is so badass. It’s lightweight, slick and elegant. The fact that it has a 4 gig internal memory and also an expandable SD card memory slot, gives the icing to the cake. For portable Internet services I carry a USB connect wifi card from At&t. its 3G is ok for surfing the web and picking up emails but I’m currently looking to replace this device with a mifi from Verizon. I’m hearing lots of good reviews toward the product and the speeds are actually not bad. With Verizon upgrading their network to the 4G technology by the Q1 next year, I want to be ahead of the game and give it a shot.

Weddings can either turn out being a very fun event or a very dreadful one at that. One of my cousin's got married this last weekend. She grew up along with me and my sister. We are pretty much the oldest cousins out of all my dads brothers and sisters. We headed out to Tampa, Fl for this unique special day of hers. I saw a lot of family members I had not seen in ages and some I didn't quite care to see. It's funny when you haven't seen a group of person in ages and all of the sudden you see them and starts speculating to make up for the rest of their lives, It's like you start putting pieces of a puzzle for this persons life with very limited information (kinda freaky but fun never the less) My Cousin looked very pretty and actually made a really good couple with her now husband Paul. I remember when we all use to play at the playground, chase each other down the blocks and now were sitting her presence for one of the biggest day of her life. Great day in history and in the family to say the least.

A very well needed trip to the dentist was done today. I had been a while since I last had a deep cleaning, for almost a year and a half due to time availability (that's no excuse)I know. Dr. E is very good and was recommended to me by my wife's family. It helps that's she's not only a family fried but as well as their dentist for years. Some rads were taken
Which later determine that I had no periodontal disease. I'm set for a couple of follow up visits before I get my Ortho work done with her. This is going to bring me back some memories as a kid when I had braces., ahh, good times. Pictures later to come.

My Booq mamba laptop bag finally made it's presence yesterday. I had been eyeing this thing for about a year now but just never got around to buy it. When I travel, I usually lug around my Macbook Pro 13" as well as my 8.9 Acer among hard drives, wireless cards etc etc. My other bag made by incase, made it very uncomfortable when I had to lug around both computers and accessories. I opt to finally buy the booq and it's all that in a bag of chips. This thing has such a slick design and definitely lots of cubic space inside. It has various departments to stow my cables and drives and surprisingly so it does not feel heavy. If your looking into a nice well design slick bag this is definitely a good choice.

I'm sitting in a plane with a great seat on my way back home. The guy at the end of the seat is keeping to himself with having nothing to say. Just him and his book. However, I can't seem to say re same for this retarded girl sitting next to me. Not only did she board late, but she has not stopped talking to her friend infront of me. This girl is standing up and just ordered two rounds of sky vodka for her and her friend. That's ok and all but she is everywhere and can't seem to shut it up! Not everyone wants to know how your relationship with your boyfriend is as strong as your drink or how your parents are struggling to sell the house. Maybe you should stop running your mouth and see what you can do to help them sell it.

To the girl who flew American Airlines flight 1999 and sat in seat 18b, thanks alot for being a fucktard.

I'm posting this short article from the application blogpress. This is yet another form of me to communicate my short stories/daily chronicles and current events. I will publish this and hopefully by the time I hit done, this will reside in webpage. On another note, I'm sitting here in my living room awaiting for the dolphins game. I'm not much of a fan but I like to give the losers a try every time they play, will they prove us wrong this time or will they yet again maintain their usual losing streak tradition and have us say- "we'll get em next time boys. Kick off's at 8:00pm!
