Jeff's Stuff

I know it's been a while. But hey, I have an excuse this time. We went on vacation! I know it's not an excuse. But let me explain...

Recently, my family and I went on an Alaskan cruise. Better still, it was a repositioning cruise which allowed us to see more of Alaska as well as a good deal of the West Coast of the United States as well.

Now I know what your thinking. Jeff, surely you have Internet access on the ship. You could've posted blog entries from anywhere in the world. Well, that's not entirely true. Without my voice recognition (which require substantial hardware) I am severely limited in the amount I can use the computer. Thus, I chose to focus my time on enjoying Alaska... and the buffet.

So why am I writing now? Well, you can consider this a teaser of sorts. In the next few weeks more regular topics will appear. I will rant on and on about various corporations taking advantage of consumers in new and exciting ways. I will also post a detailed review of our cruise. Also to come is a review (with photographs) of one particular meal we had while in port one day.

Little by little, photographs from the trip will make their way to the photo gallery section of the site. These appear much lower than the blog entries because I can't use voice recognition to edit the photographs and thus I either have to do them in very small steps over a long period of time, or impose on my wife to edit them for me. Since she would rather stick her little finger in electric pencil sharpener than play with Photoshop, the photos will be slow in coming.

So stay tuned. More cool stuff is coming.
