Sat night

I guess I will go out for a bit after all. Getting ready. Haven't decided exactly where. Maybe the Village. A bit chilly out. That means I can still wear on of my super-cool racing jackets

Can't quite get "Hips Don't Lie" off my head

So-Be Trip

Posted a few pics from the recent weekend trip to South Beach, Miami and the Keys. Click on the pic to view them:



New Apple store on 5th Ave.

Last evening, Apple opened a showcase store in Manhattan that burnished the company's reputation for clever design. The entrance to the store, on Fifth Avenue between 58th and 59th Streets, is a glass cube, 32 feet on each side, with a suspended Apple logo inside. Customers walk down a circular staircase — or take a cylindrical glass elevator — to the 10,000-square-foot store below. The store will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week — a first for Apple and an acknowledgment of New York's status as a round-the-clock city.

"We wouldn't do that in Palo Alto, but this is New York," Jobs said in an interview.

Revenue for each square foot at Apple stores last year was $2,489, compared with $971 at Best Buy, the big computer and electronics retailer, according to Forrester Research, a market research firm.

The store is pretty impressive.

Sat

Slep in today, felt so good after so many days of getting up at 5 and 6 am. Stayed in last night, and went to bed relatively early. Doing laundry.
