Back in the Area

Well I have taken some time off lately as you can see by my last posting. I have good reason however seeing that I was in Munich, Germany for Oktoberfest. If you ever have the ability to go, you will not be disappointed. From learning the subway, to eating the great food and to not forget all the great German beer (with Augustina being my favorite).

So on to a couple of things that have happened that stand out to me during and upon my return.

XM Radio hits 5 million subscribers. Moving right along. If you do not have satellite radio, you have no idea what you are missing. If you know how addictive a Tivo unit is, you need satellite radio.

If there was one thing that I hated the most about going over to Germany, it was the fact that I would not be able to see the Penn State vs. Northwestern game. When I logged into the internet the next day to see the score, I almost hit my head on the hotel room ceiling. Close, but a very important win.

When I saw the score of the South Florida vs. Lousiville score, I could not believe it. Check out the PSU opponents and their records so far to date:

And how can I not write about Google hitting 7 years old (yesterday). Happy B-Day Google...
