The company next door to ours uses an online backup service so I decided to go and ask one of the guys how they find this service to see whether or not we’d try something similar. Instead of talking about work we got talking about last night’s game! I also noticed that they […]

I remember my first car like it was yesterday. It was a bit of a rust bucket but it was my pride and joy. I was the first of my friends to have a car and the first to get my driver’s permit. I was cooler than cool. In an effort […]
