Great read. I found this article through Fred Wilson, a VC who also writes a bunch of great stuff.
No no…this is not a blog post about GE’s Darwinistic approach to people management, this post is about a bet I made with my wife. What’s the bet you say? I bet her that I could lose 10% of my body weight (or 25 lbs). Actually it’s a pretty weak ass bet since we really didn’t agree upon the terms of the bet.
…was a perfect day in Chicago’s history. Summer is here.
My friend John Barnicle’s band Dummy is playing at the Double Door on 5/30. If you’re in Chicago, check them out.
I’ve decided to start selling off a few things that I no longer use on Amazon.com. I’m starting off with a camera lens and a few books. Does anyone have experience with this? If so, send me an email: jeff at jeffjudge dot com.
Just got the new BlackBerry 8800 today (through T-Mobile). So far, I love the phone. I’ve been looking at a bunch of phones lately, and trying to figure out the perfect fit. It came down to what I use my phone for…and that’s email, text messaging and making phone calls.
If you live here, you know exactly what I’m talking about
We chose to visit erwin (2925 N Halsted) for the second round of the hamburger challenge. This place seemed like erwin was a no brainer, as it received the top spot for classic hamburgers in TimeOut Chicago a few weeks ago.
Except for a few days when we’re traveling, Erin and I have dinner with her family every Sunday. Whether it’s going out to try new new restaurants, or staying in to try some new recipes…we are a family that loves to eat. Tonight we decided to hit The Grafton (4530 N Lincoln), a great Irish pub in our neighborhood. If you ever get a chance to go there, do yourself a favor and have one of their burgers, complete with a fried egg, cheese and bacon on top. They also serve their fries with curry sauce. Yum.
