Rangers win!

Had to wait until after the game to post this as the connectivity at Madison Square Garden is non-existent for AT&T.

Anyway, the game was great. Rangers won 6-1!! The game was never in doubt at they were up 2-0 in the first 2 minutes. Danny and I took a bunch of pictures. Here are some of them.

When in NY, eat Korean!

I decided to take Danny to a Korean restaurant for dinner before the game. . He was a bit hesitant, but he gave it a try. It turned out great! There was so much food. They brought all these little dishes that were included with our dinner. We really enjoyed them all!

Now on to the game.

Michael & Daniel catch a Rangers game

Thanks to our great friend Jim, Daniel and I are heading into NY to see the Rangers play Colorado. Thankfully Colorado is actually playing worse than the Rangers these days. Maybe our new Coach will get his first win.

Iphone App Improves Performance

I recently tried a new application called Free Memory.  It does just what the name implies – it frees up memory on your Iphone.  Most applications want 20 MB free in order to run well.  Some apps even suggest you restart your Iphone before running their app!

Free memory will count up the amount of memory being used and give you a choice to free up memory – up to 20 MB.  I now do this before I run some of my slower running applications.  Performance really improves.  It’s the best .99 cent app I’ve purchased!  Give it a try!

Iphone Apps for Skiers and Boarders

Here are 2 great apps for those skiers and boarders out there. Ski Report provides great snow reports from US ski resorts.  It also lets skiers post their own updates on conditions so that you get the real reports of how things are on the slopes. You can find the reports for all your local resorts by using the Iphone GPS.

ITrailMap provides trail maps of all your favorite resorts.

Both of these apps are free, so try them out!
