    Sonos Speakers

    Anyone have these wireless Sonos speakers? I heard Leo Laporte talk about them on his radio show today. They sound pretty like they are pretty awesome...and pricey! They basically are able to play music through your wireless internet. Amazon.com: Sonos: Electronics

    NFL Draft

    Dallas Cowboys once again prove they are idiots when it comes to the draft. Giants made a dumb pick too. Looks like Minnesota did well! Not surprised Te'o wasn't drafted in first round.
