I’d like the M3 model, because that reminds me and shares the same name of the BMW M3, one of my dream cars growing up. In any case, I got my hands on a Mac Mini M2. It’s a wonderful piece of hardware, and it was imperative that I get back onto MacOS Ventura, Apple’s latest Operating System. There are tools and pieces of software that I needed immediately. I am so excited to be able to use Logic Pro (DAW), OmniFocus (To-Dos List), OmniPlan (Project Management), so on and so forth.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 768 & BENKYO RADIO 768. Have you ever heard of JOCKO WILLINK? Everytime I look at him, he looks like a beef-up Dad version of my old bestfriend from HS. We used to get into so many arguments. But I’ll remember our fondest memories, and that was playing Need for Speed. He has motivational music and podcasts, and dietary supplements. He also has merchandise at ORIGIN. Go! Hopefully, raising awareness about him will allow him to enjoy his retirement. He deserves it after the trauma and PTSD he has received from being a Military Veteran. I had no idea his birthday was September 8th. Can you imagine this shit? His birthday is 3 days before 9/11 anniversary? I would be so mad. I know that Buddhist Monks have the patience and calm demeanor of unheard incredibly powerful power, but Jocko’s power is still up there as well. So when you make a purchase on one of JOCKO’s website, you help many of his workers who are Military Veterans, it’s a USA-based manufacturing company, and you help the dude save up for his retirement. I tried the energy drink it’s pretty good. Check it out.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 765 & BENKYO RADIO 765. As mentioned on my ABOUT.ME page, my dream is to work for SAP. It’s a wonderful corporate company, and I hope they open more offices in California. Obviously I can work remote, but working in an office setting can be good as well even if it is a few times per month. Sometimes you are more productive surrounded by your peers. Plus, the watercooler or fax machine chit-chat. Also, it’s a German company, so a lot of them got amazing German Engineering vehicles.

Until Next Time!
