    More and More Commercials

    I am fully aware that commercials help pay for most of the expenses and operating costs of broadcast, network and cable companies programming, and their existence is dependent on them; but lately it sure seems that they're cramming more and more commercials into the programming. I have had...

    First major soft drink in a can

    Yes, in a Aluminum can. But the "Cone Top" soda cans were produced at the New York bottling plant in the late 1940's for several soda flavors (I wonder what metal was used? :eek:). It was in 1954, that Royal Crown became the first to sell a soft drink in a flat top aluminum can. :D...

    First major soft drink in a can

    I remembered when both Coke and Pepsi started using cans, parents were in an uproar because they resembled Beer Cans. Those were the days, Coke was a guy’s drink, and Pepsi was a gal’s drink. A guy would not want to be seen drinking a Pepsi.

    First major soft drink in a can

    Looking at one of the Pickers show series last night and they showed a ”Super Coola” soft drink can. Man, did that bring back memories. I think it was the first large scale distribution of soda in a can in New York. I grew up drinking that brand, Grape flavor was my favorite. Yea I know...

    Thai TV on 97 w

    The IPTV’s group of channels have a very strong signal level on 97W, but as you know are scrambled and by subscription only, thus the reason I don’t view them. Since the IPTV group is a unique company, there will still be some independent Thai channels on 97W such as the Thai Army channel’s...

    Prepaid Plans Heat Up

    Interesting article on Pre-paid; as an old fart I for one have pre-paid with AT&T. Now it seems that I will have company! Now, if they would just start providing free incoming calls like most of the world, but I guess the unlimited plans are the answer to that. Here’s the link...

    It's now LEGAL to Jailbreak or Root your phone!

    I stand corrected and Educated. :) I remember back in the early days of analog Cell phones, that you had the “A” carriers (private companies) and “B” carriers (Telco Companies), or the other way around, and these analog cell phones were switchable between A and B carriers. So if you went with...

    Yes Don, I am aware of the higher prices for the phones.:) I did not mention it because the unlocked phones that are available here in the States depending on the phone type have prices that start from a hundred dollars and up. They are not all that high of a price. I feel that with more...

    It's now LEGAL to Jailbreak or Root your phone!

    I agree with your points concerning CDMA advantages. Both (GSM-CDMA) have their distinct own advantages; but I cannot use a Verizon phone on a Sprint network without having to purchase another phone. Unlocked GSM quad-band cell phones (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) would provide that “Free Agent”...

    It's now LEGAL to Jailbreak or Root your phone!

    “Free Agent” Environment Unfortunately, cell companies in the good old USA have a monopoly on its users by locking their phones to their network only, and between them making you pay outrageous fees. Normally after you have satisfied your commitment, you have been able to ask the cell...

    George Stienbrenner Passes Away at Age 80

    I might be showing my age, but I was always happy when the Yankees played the Dodgers in the World Series. It was what was called the “Subway Series” for the fans. Man, the only thing I always hated was that I had to wear a hot three piece suit to the series game. My father will not allow me...

    George Stienbrenner Passes Away at Age 80

    There are as many Yankees fan haters as Yankee fans, yes even in New York, but those who did not care about the Yankees did admired certain aspects of the team and it’s organization; The New York Yankees with its colorful history always provided the catalyst for Baseball’s excitement than any...

    Last PT Cruiser Rolls off Assembly Line

    I wonder if either the Chevrolet HHR or the new GMC Terrain will meet with the same fate. It is like some people say - it has a “Love it or hate it” design. Personally, I like the designs, it does bring back memories. AHH for the good old days::) No cripple zone hood; No air bags...

    Yankees announcer Sheppard dies

    Sorry to hear that Bob Sheppard the former New York Yankees Stadium public address announcer passed away. I attended many a game back in the sixties at the old stadium, and his voice was part of the stadium’s ambiance. Sorry guys, I know that not many of you are Yankee fans.:tux:
