Sports organizing has never been easier - thanks Sheldon

RATING:

Thumbs Up!

To appreciate what he has done you have to remember BEFORE:
Maintain distribution lists. Send out emails and reminders, answer every inquiry individually. Create outside solicitations from scratch in non-html format.

NOW: Post an event, all potential participants are notified automatically by the preferences of the participant. The participants are responsible for maintaining a current user id/email account. Any changes, cancellations, or updates only need to be posted and all participants are automatically notified. If a question is posted, it can be addressed by anyone in the group in a timely manner. Reminders can be automatically set. When I want to solicit for participation, Sheldon has made HTML code from my posting so that I all I need to do is cut and paste into other websites for a very professional look. And instead of receiving many individual inquiries, the respondents are directed to the event posting on the Socialwave website for all the details.

I have gone from hours a day to organize, to posting an event or advertisement once and confirming the event. Less than one hour a week. If you want to see Sheldon's work in action, visit SOCIALWAVE.net. My players and I love it.




THis is the smallest and most expensive lees

RATING:

It's OK

I love lee's sandwiches but this storefront charges more and has less selection than all the other lees. Try the Story Road/ Lucretia Lee's. Big selection of spring rolls, side items and I swear more meat selections also. All for under two dollars a piece.




WATCH OUT FOR THE DRINK PRICES

RATING:

It's OK

Although the deal is pretty good, BEWARE OF THE DRINK prices. You get an awesome appetizer plate of your choice, great soup or salad, a very tasty although small (6oz on average) piece of meat of your choice (I recommend the prime rib), and all followed with a great dessert, even a la mode if you like. BUT When the bill comes you find that a cup of coffee is the price of a latte (2.50) and a cocktail that is mostly ice and thick glass is absurd ($8).

We have never finished the meal, and always brought the dessert home for another time. The bill with normal tip still came to $62. I could eat lots of places for $62/two persons. Right next door, the fish market is far more reasonable.




Buca a BUST!

RATING:

Thumbs Down

PEEE UUUUUUU, this is the most expensive family dining experience I have ever done. The food is small portions and the flavor is absent. Save your money and go to Angelo's, Tony diMaggios, hell Pizza hut has better italian food. They think a large portion serves 4 and they typically charge 25+/order for a large serving. I spent $30 and got a taste of marginal food at best. For spectacular, try Original Joes. For family dining, try Three Flames on meridian. All great values and the taste is memorable. I got better value at buffets.




Star Wars - Revenge of the Sith

RATING:

Thumbs Up!

Wow was that a great having the control to watch all the great scenes and special effects.

I am curious, how many of us went and bought it on the first day.




Mexican food that picky Mexicans like

RATING:

Thumbs Up!

This is the only place I can take my two Mexican Critics to. They think it has the authentic cuisine that they identify with. They won't eat anywhere else. BTW their specialty is Al Pastor. Look the other way for atmosphere, the beer is never cold enough and it isn't the sterile environment of say a Chili's. I love it.
