Having planned a couple of extra days to enjoy Los Angeles, I booked a ticket to visit Sony Pictures Studios Tours. Like most of the movie studio tours, they are not well advertised or marketed. Most people find out about movie studio tours from word-of-mouth or by seeking it out. Being a big movie fan …

I haven’t been too productive today. One of those reasons is my flipping through the 3 national news channels: CNN, FoxNews, and MSNBC. I have been following the New Hampshire Primaries like I have never done before. It has been a great show. On the Democratic side, Hillary had a touching emotional moment. Either she …

For the last two years, I have been looking for signs on what would be the technological successor to the standard DVD. I love buying and owning movies on DVD. I am also a power user on the personal computing side. And so, I have a vested interest in knowing what direction the high definition …

I swore to myself I was not going to make any public comments about Paris Hilton. I was sorely tempted to make some comments about Paris Hilton after watching her respond in Larry King’s interview. But I thought to myself, what would be the point since I had very little good to say and the …

Because of my conversations with “Incredible Discoveries“, I found a lot of information within Google regarding the entire infomercial industry. Boy, what a nasty business it appears to be. So many complaints. There are numerous complaints on every infomercial I have seen. It is really staggering. It is a good thing I trust my instincts. …

After the last post, I felt a bit stupid not knowing what my phone call with “Incredible Discoveries” was going to about. All I knew was that it was going to be real estate information and infomercial related. Not exactly a mix I was overly excited about. Having seen many education product infomercials over the …

 It appears persistence and momentum does pay off. WRBL News 3 finally paid attention to the Cobra Collection scam story on June 14, 2007. However, they called it the “Cobra Collection Controversy“. Boy, is that an understatement. I liked WTVM’s title much better because it was more bold but also accurate.  In their broadcasts, they titled it …
