The team at Colle+McVoy along with the support of our client RBFF found some of the world’s best casters and pushed them to the limits.  The tricks and techniques are literally straight out of someone’s crazy fishing dream.  Check out this one where Gary Hain shows some Penn and Teller like accuracy.

The Breakthrough Company

I generally try to read a few books at a time.  My former manager Kevin Doohan recommended that I juggle a “business” book with a easier/more enjoyable read.  I’ve taken his advice to heart.  I’m just about done with, “Men in Black: How the Supreme Court is Destroying America” which I received as a gift [...]

Microsoft Windows 7

Microsoft Windows 7 is due to ship in 2010. Gosh, 2010, that just sounds cool. Ok, anyhow, CrunchGear offered us some images of what Windows 7 could look like. Keep in mind the operating system is still in development and obviously changes could happen between now and then. That said, it [...]

Hillary vs. Obama Social Media

I’m pro-Hillary and anti-Obama. I’m anti-Obama to the point that I’ll vote McCain if the choices are Obama and McCain. Those feelings aside, I stumbled upon something very interesting today. It’s been said many times by the media (who have a crush on Obama) that he’s done a great job mobilizing the [...]

My Love Hate Relationship With Lost

I love the show Lost. I hate the show Lost. Lost, is a great show. It keeps you engaged, makes you want to learn about the characters, and keeps you coming back. The writing is top shelf, the music scripted just so, and the cinematography is perfect. That said, I [...]
