Now that we officially live in “the boonies” (according to most people), it is a bit of a haul to the closest grocery mega-mart. Additionally, its becoming quite difficult, with two kids, a prego wife and a new house to unpack, to find time to actually go to the store. So we decided to try Safeway delivery service. With the MSFT Prime card, the delivery ends up costing $4 or less, so we filled up our virtual cart and tried it out. Seamless service was the result. The produce was great, and they had all the dry goods we wanted, at a better price than our local market. Thumbs up for Safeway.com.

Next thing to try is spud.com. They are an organic and local crop food delivery service. What caught my eye was their “harvest basket” which delivers fruits and veggies of your favor (determined by taking a small preference selection test) priced at various amounts. For example a $35 Harvest Basket gets you 2-4 quantity of about 12 diff fruits or veggies delivered to your door for free when you spend over $35. Oh yeah, and 10% all orders with the MSFT Prime card.
You can also select that you want the fruits and veggies to come from less than 500 miles away, which is cool for supporting your local economy and staying away from imported fruit and associated pesticides.

What else would a discerning sportsman need than to combine two great things….Luis Vuitton and Badminton!

What a steal! I mean, who doesnt have this on the top of their easter gift wishlist. Spring has sprung….lets play some raquet sports my good man.

Just found my ultimate vacation home in Texas. Seems like a great “get outta rain” type place with a few nice things for the kids.

Got a spare 7.5mil?

Just thinking today that more and more of the content I watch on my television comes from my computer. All this AppleTV talk has me longing for a device which acts as a wireless conduit for content from computers on my network. The AppleTV isn’t right for many reasons, most of which comes from its itunes centric approach to managing content.

Netgear has a new product, the EVA8000, which does pretty much what I want for a bit more than I want to spend. It would be cool to have a plasma mounted to the wall with only this device behind it. All the content would be “pushed” via wireless with no need for cable boxes or the like plugged into the TV. Best of all, there would be no loss of quality as there is when I plug my computer into my current TV.
