I guess its not ever parents dream to raise an addict. But, at almost three, I think I've passed one of my addictions already on to my son, and am very proud!
Hello, my name is Brian, so is my son, and we are addicted to the Blackberry.
Last night, after we watched the final episode of Innovation Movers on the Disney Channel (aka TIVO), it was time for Brian Jr to go to sleep. As I was laying in bed next to him, we thought it would be fun to watch one more quick Movers song, so I whipped out my handy dandy - wait, wrong show... I got out my BB and we loaded up YouTube for one more hit. It lasted 90 seconds. Afterwards, I turned off the BB and got screams a plenty! Kicking, screaming, pulling, pushing! With the BB turned off, it could do no more fun!
And you should have seen little Brian's reaction! Anyway, needless to say, this went on for about five minutes until I simply let him hold the BB. That was enough, and he feel asleep, with visions of BB, dancing in his head...!
So, I know they make toy ones out there... Guess its time to find junior his very own Blackberry...
In other news, I have been accepted to the Bittner School of Business (St John Fischer) for my MBA program. I start in the fall, and it should take two years to complete.
Hope all is well with you guys!

quick Update
Quick update for everyone from the BB!
This week, in review, I think the only big news is that I purchased my first ever football! There's not much to comment on it... Wilson, brown, laces...a lot of people are just amazed that I lived this long and never owned a football... So, now I do!
Brian jr likes it a lot! We've been playing catch, in the house of course, and its been real fun!
That's pretty much it! Shout out to Mike Simmons!

weekly update
Thought I'd take a few minutes today and put together the weekly update for any readers...
GREAT NEWS!!! I have learned that people are actually reading my blog! A a little while, I wasn't sure if anyone was... But it really didn't matter, it still gave me something to do.
This week we purchased a new laptop! To prepare for my graduate degree, I purchased a new Macbook. It has a beautiful LCD Backlit display and all the fancy Apple bells and whistles.
It was also announced yesterday at Paychex that all merit raises and 401k matches would be suspended for a one year time period as a result of the sluggish economy. Overall, I think the news was taken well as it meant that we were keeping our jobs. Also, the Senior VPs, who made the decision, did actually walk around all day and were available to all Rochester employees to discuss what happened and did not hide in their offices. That was nice and I think instilled that this was still a great team enviroment.
Well, got to go!
