On my frequent trips to Bishop, California with my Dad and brother we’d regularly tune into “The Rest of the Story” and “News and Comment”, a radio show led by radio personality and commentary extraordinaire, Paul Harvey.
Paul Harvey “reached audiences way beyond the windy city in 1951, when he began his coast-to-coast “News and Comment” on the ABC Radio Networks. On May 10, 1976, Mr. Harvey began another series of programs on the ABC Radio Networks entitled “The Rest of the Story”, which delve into the forgotten or little known facts behind stories of famous people and events.”

It seems that most of the time on my quest to finding excellent applications, my journey to a product happens upon chance. Case in point; while skimming through Nick Bradbury’s blog I found a trackback comment to an article dealing with software piracy.
The trackback comment described how one software development team had to utilize product activitation to thwart the ongoing dillema of software piracy. That team was the guys at Constant Time and their product was the wonderfully polished application Electric Shoebox.

A woman, who looked to be in her late-20s, was ordering her children around like they were slaves. They all sat behind us at the Chicago Train Station; the children conversing with eachother in gleeful cheers while the mother hen, who I’ll call Mean Mother Mertha glared in their direction.
Her first orders were given to her daughter who I presumed to be no older than 5 or 6. She commanded her to fetch the luggage cart which at that point the girl timidly strolled to the other side of the station and arduously pushed the cart to Mertha.

I?m typing this entry from the hotel (free wireless connection), so please bear with any spelling mistakes or incoherency.
Some things in life are better left unsaid, or for that matter you should always keep at least one thing to yourself that no one knows. More or less, I?m referring to not revealing too much of yourself to a stranger.
You see, it all started after we (my brother-in-law and I) boarded the train for Chicago. The first part of the trip consisted of a bit of gameboy playing, magazine reading and the occassional nod off ? considering the trip would result in a 12 hour trip. The second half of the trip, however, was something strange and at the same time intriguing.
