CDW is NOT a Warehouse, It’s a Services Company & Review of HP Elite Display e231
A few weeks ago, I was invited on a "red carpet" tour of CDW The funny thing is, I have always thought of CDW as a catalog and warehouse company. It turns out, my idea was a bit off.

The Front of the Line Experience at Universal Studios Hollywood
Hollywood is a magical place. It has a 24-hour buzz of excitement, creativity and activity. Most people never get to really understand it unless you "work in the industry." It's the place where actors make it (or don't), where writing comes to life on the screen and where people flock from around the world to experience stardom. Universal Studios Hollywood…

Jumping Into January – What I’m Missing & What I’m Not and Why It’s Relevant

Growing a Mustache in November for #Movember (Or in my case – Facial Hair) – Men’s Cancer Awareness
Facial hair has not really been my big thing. I have sported a goatee a while back and even a "soul patch" but I always ended up shaving it off to the cheers of my wife, parents and even my kids. But for the month of November, I'm getting scruffy again but this time for a cause – to raise…
