I love cafe 59, so I was thrilled when I heard the owners opened a new location in the space that used to be fiddle heads.

(e:terry) and I headed over there for dinner on wednesday. The food was reasonablely priced, delicious and well portioned. I can't decide what was better the sausage in red sauce or the shrimp with ceci beans in lemon and olive oil.

I think we are going to return there with (e:hodown) tonight.

Sasmsung touchscreen laptops and computers seem so awesome. Too bad they come with windows 8. I wonder how the touchscreen works in linux. I kind of wish I got this instead of the MacBook air. Well except for that despite the thinness its too heavy.

Windows 8 makes me crazy. I tried a file search. After it returned no matching files I got stuck. Esc wouldn't get me out. Swipe sideways wouldn't get me out, F4 wouldn't get me out. Ctrl W wouldn't get me out. Ctrl Q wouldn't get me 'out. Argh.

Make new friends Keep the old, one is silver and the other is gold.

We traveled down to the falls with the Hos to let zooey see the falls for the first time. She missed most of it because she wouldnt stop climbing on the rocks. Sounds like a future hiker.

The sunset at the falls was awesome in a nuke bomb kind of way.

I finally received my galaxy note 2 this weekend. It definately feels l I ke the future. The device is unbelieably fast. In fact it takes pictures instantaneously.

I seriously can't imagine having an iphone in comparison and its not like I don't have ios experience. I had 3 iphones and and ipad 3 with ios six.

The navigation voice on this thing is totally amazing. It actually sounds like a real person versus siri or the previous android navigation voice. It is literally the best TTS engine I have ever heard. Better than the AT&T naturally clear voices.

The only weird thing is the lack of a deducated search button and the fact that the home button is a physical button. Personally I prefer all capacitive buttons as the last physical home button I had on the iphone broke. I can't understand why they would remove the search button on a device that is so driven by search.

Here is the best overall review of the phone I have seen



It also was my first experience with jellybean All around an excellent experience.
