Yes, I avoided the “praise for Praized” pun. My buddy Stephane (he of fellow WPhone fame) and his workmates have gone live with their social app, Praized. Think of it as a Web 2.0-ish Angie’s List, with local business/hotspot search…
You guys were great the last go-round, so I figured I’d solicit further advice. Here’s the situation: We’re looking at an ’06 Honda Odyssey. Y’all (and others) were convincing in your arguments and I’ve decided that loyalty to ancestors is…
I cannot describe the utter joy Captain Blasto embodies to me. Art style, music, concept — it’s brilliant. I could describe the premise, or I could simply let the official trailer tell the story: (Okay, short short version: ordinary guy…

So it’s official: we’re in the market for a minivan. Our legendary Passat has run its course and is no longer sufficient for conveying our burgeoning little family about town, so we’re looking to upsize (read: with two car-seats in…
