Canon Rebel T1i, Loving It!

Well, the wife persuaded me to get a camera instead of a computer; let’s just say that I am much happier with the camera instead! I haven’t owned a camera in what seems like forever and whenever I did it was a simple Point and Shoot; now this badass T1i is just slightly a step-up and will definitely quench my desire for photography again.

Here are a few of the first photos:

Why All the Apple Hate?

Soundly I can comprehend that the nature of our human race amuse the fact of others’ failures; but for some unknown reasoning I am perplexed by all the sudden Apple hate and mockery amiss! Does the iPad really pose that huge of a threat? Maybe, if others weren’t as timid to just dive into the world of unknown, just maybe, then they too could appreciate Apple’s success, wonders, and innovations!

I won’t start the whole debacle of which tech company is better, but I can attest that for the Apple users we DO know the power of their machines and there is nothing comparable to Apple’s amazing prowess :)

Is life really too short…?

You have probably heard it uncountable times and chances are you’ll hear it some more . I pose this thought: is life really too short or do we just not live our lives?

Twitter & Twinkle

Well, there I go again MIA; guess I am just horrible at dedication to this blog of mine. However, or consequently, I’ve grown fond to this Twitter craze! It’s simple, quick, and easy.

I wonder if there is a plug-in to blog my tweets, or vice-versa?

Well, back to my schedule ass kicking on some Xbox Live!

It is Really Real!

Well, after all the blood , tears, and sweat it is finally the real deal!

I secured for iPhones for my wife and I. Best Buy can kiss my $300 per iPhone ass! The AT&T store set me up with no deposit; so here is an awesome thank you to Nelson from the AT&T store here in Ocala, Florida.

Please Lord Watch Over Him…

I can’t claim to be the most sincerest or strongest convicted religious person yet; however in times of distress one runs to assurance of you Lord.

In my current dilemma of life I kindly, respectfully, and humbly ask that you care and love for my wife’s father, Mitch Mire. He is on his 3rd day in ICU at the hospital for his operation to remove his cancer.

I’ve had only but a small wink of time to share with this man and he has been the father role I believe I was never allowed. All I ask Lord is you bring him home safe to his dear wife and daughters.

Thank you.

AT&T Discourages Me

So… after finally saving up some cash to purchase not one but two iPhones for both my wife and I, I excitedly entered Best Buy in hopes of switching over from my current provider to AT&T. I was wrong; seems I’m not at their expectations of credit worthiness and they requested a $300 deposit per iPhone on the account if I was to sign-up!

I was stunned… so to get this right they wanted $600 for each iPhone + the $300 for the purchase of the two phones (not including taxes)? That alone would of been $900+ to set up a new account. I will admit I know I don’t have the perfect credit but isn’t that a little absurd?

I propose this: they implement a cellphone grading scale based on your current/previous cell phone contracts; not your credit history overall. there should be a management system that a cellphone company can access to see your fulfillment to previous carriers contracts, payments late/on time, etc.

Just my .02¢

School’s Back In! (Soon)

Very soon to be more precise, as in like 9 more days! I am super excited to get back into wrapping up my degree. I’ve fought hard and strong to get where I am; I am only applying all my wisdom that God has given me to go farther in life and reach destinations.

I just plan to set y goals higher once this degree is accomplished to strive for a better position with my current company. I’ve been granted an amazing role already, but my challenges have lessened and I yearn to expand and grow.

Here’s to my future…

Google Voice

Received my invitation for the Google Voice project… you know it really amazes me at just how much this company works on and expands into. So after getting through the initial set-up, I am quite impressed with the service so far. I especially liked the ability to search for words in a phone numbers availability! I’m not how sure how much I’ll use the service, but I plan on utilizing it someway.

Here is my # to reach me ;)

School is a Go!

Applied for some student federal loans and I was approved; thank the Lord! I am already enrolled for three classes this Fall semester. Now to just get my books… hopefully I can get them on Amazon or elsewhere other than campus bookstore.

So for all you kiddies out there that think you know it all… just know: School is damn freaking cool! So just do it and get your education.

In the New Apartment

Woohoo!

Yes the move is concluded and we are in our new home for the next 16 months. Honestly, even though this apartment complex is seemingly older I do like it much better! The layout, design, and atmosphere seem a better place to call “home”. Although we aren’t completely unpacked yet, we love it here. I may take a photo later to show off the romantic bathroom scene my wife put together!

I do believe the next move will be to a house, with the intention of settling down. Also, even after our lease is up here we will renew just to bypass the complete hassle of moving again so soon!

ISolated INcident

Well, Dane Cook’s new gig is out and abroad; I must be a critic and share my awesome opinion on it! Mainly, it rocks because it is all fresh material and not a few couple new one liners thrown into some old shenanigans. Much appreciated Mr. Cook. He really brings out some subjective matter and grabs the essence of hilarity perfectly, as always.

One thing, it seems Dane here enjoys Xbox 360 online gaming? I’ve seen him mention scenario of gaming online and with this new release he even throws out a Halo 3 quip. I don’t know about anyone else, but I would enjoy gaming with DC, the shit he would say while playing would have me balling in tears with laughter!

I emailed DC on this request so let’s see if he won’t be a douche about it ;)

Intelligent Thoughts

I’ve always pondered how the brilliant memorable leaders of past times tapped into their extraordinary gifted thoughts? Martin Luther King Jr., Albert Einstein, Abraham Lincoln, and Beethoven are just a few to consider from so many wonderful people that have given the meaning of genius a run for its definition.

These pioneers simply thought different, resisted the flow, and contributed great inspiration. Their names are of but memory now, but the wonders and dreams they opened for the centuries to come are unimaginable. Is there a secret for thinking, acting, and living within this plane of creativity? I am willing to bet it has to do a lot with the old saying, “just follow your heart”. Doing what we really wish and enjoying life is very simple, but we ourselves make it overwhelming complicated. Gadgets, games, lost time, and unproductively acts are what daily life routines have become accustomed to. Digging deeper into an abyss of no satisfaction or true happiness.

I do believe this outburst is my brain’s yearning for knowledge, school, and expanding beyond the mundane living which I too have fallen victim to. What dreams may come? Time shall only prevail…

Imagination is more important than knowledge…
Albert Einstein – US (German-born) physicist (1879 – 1955)

Sticking With It

I’m doing it all over again… ignoring my blog! (Sorry) There was a time when expressing myself on here was a release and comforting. Jotting down whatever mystical activity clouding my brain cells while allowing others into my thoughts was entertaining and relaxing. Yet, I am somehow ignoring this jewel I’ve chiseled away on.

So many wonderful things have happened in my life within this past month! I think the biggest announcement is Erin and I… well, MARRIED on 4/30/2009! Yes, yours truly is taken, so women you must all seize and detest me; active immediately. I am so very happy, in love, and pleased to have found a women who is insane enough to stand up and say “I Do” for me! We are now Jack and Erin Mayo.

After that, we are preparing, or should be preparing for our move coming up here towards the end of the month; which is slyly exciting as well as a pain the rear. Is that even possible? Then after the move I will be reregistering to hopeful begin my path to finish up my degree at CFCC.

Other than that… it has been just Life; here’s to Life :)
