Accessibility, simplicity and ease of mind…....
These next few items have come into my life the last few months and I honestly can’t get enough of them. I thought it only fair to share. Body Glove Phone Cover- Alright, so this isn’t really a technology in and of itself but it does protect my phone. Why is BodyGlove, a company notorious for wet suits, making a phone cover? I have no idea, but I love it. I am incredibly hard on...

Predictably Irrational--pick it up
Over the holidays this year I read the book “Predictably Irrational, The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions” by Dan Ariely. The book explains that, “we are all far less rational in our decision making than standard economic theory assumes. Our irrational behaviors are neither random nor senseless—they are systematic and predictable.” Ariely documents countless...
