Today’s Bawldys Go To…

Posted @ 5:56 pm - Filed under Cool Info, Bawldys

bawldyReview the first half of your year — find out how well AT&T is prepared to work with Apple users — and ask yourself why didn’t I think of that? And just for fun, find out how truly terrible some guys would look with hair. It’s not for the queasy. :)

Phil Gerbyshak is a friend and fellow blogger who wants everyone to Make It Great! He’s terminally happy, and I swear he sleeps with that grin on his face. To he posted 20 Questions: Monday Morning Greatness which urges us to review the first half of our year. Phil is definitely on the Kumbahya side of things, but is harbors a brilliant mind. You just can’t help liking the man. He’s one of the most guileless guys I’ve ever met in person. The review will no doubt lead you to at least one or two realizations — which is the point, right?

Jeff Turner over at Active Rain is, like me, an Apple guy. Yeah, I’m one of those snobs who can’t understand PC users putting up with crashes, and Bill Gates’ horrific new OS’s that drive users nuts — until he comes up with the next one. Anyway, Jeff wrote Open Letter To Steve Jobs - I’m Worried About Your iPhone Launch which brings up a great point about the new iPhones. AT&T is pretty lousy at everything it does — except make profits. Their service is horrible, and their attitude is barely tolerable. They’d have trouble organizing a one man picnic — which is aptly illustrated in a transcript of a conversation Jeff had with one of their service guys. Un-frickin’-believable. This is a MUST READ. It’s also why I won’t get an iPhone until they figure this stuff out. It’s just not worth dealing with idiots.

And under the heading I Wish I’d Of Thought Of That, we get a very happy camper. How many times have we seen someone make a ton of money because they thought of something a sixth grader could have? This is the latest example.

Though this isn’t a Bawldy award winner, I thought I’d share it with you. Hair isn’t all it’s made out to be. This is illustrated to the point of grimacing by Austin Realtor’s Wife in response to earning a Bawldy yesterday.

“…and remember. The daily Bawldys have approximately 1/365th the value of our annual awards”

  • I was eating when I clicked through to ARW’s page of a picture of you with photoshopped hair.

    Please don’t do that again…

    :-P

    Much better sans hair buddy. As you proudly claim. :-)

  • I’ll cop to linking to it, but Lani’s the Photoshop culprit. :)

    Never mind that I’m a blonde.

  • haha glad you enjoyed, boys. I actually asked for a “believable tight fro” when I sent off your picture. Knowing my dad (who prefers farting around on Craigslist to working) will send more versions of the shot. We’ll see…

  • I’ll fess up to owning the glasses ol’ Bawldy’s wearing, but I’m not sans hair just yet. Perhaps my time will come, so I can be among the great Bawldy Bloggers like Jeff Brown, Seth Godin and Josh Kaufman, to name a few.

    Thanks for the mention and the award Jeff. VERY cool, and I hope the article was helpful too!
