Excellent Customer Support
In todays world it seems that companies have been very lacking in Customer Support. Many companies have outsourced their Customer Support overseas. I have nothing against other countries, but its very frustrating when you have a problem and the communication between you and the Customer Support Representative can’t understand each other. Well Luckily for you Geeks out there because there are some companies that have great customer service that might surprise you!
You can tell a lot by the opening credits…
Sometimes all it takes to suck me into a movie (or show) is a great opening title sequence. True, I adore movies where they don’t even show you the title or credits (or just a title) in the beginning but other times I love a well done opening sequence. I was thinking about that this morning and decided to post up some of my favorites ones from geeky things. Some are chosen based on music, others on the visual sequence and some for both. For today’s post I’ll stick with 5 in no particular order.
Enjoy!

Earth’s Children 6: Land of the Painted Caves – A Review
Earth's Children Book 6
We’ve been waiting for years but finally the last book in the Earth’s Children series by Jean Auel is finally in stores! If the series doesn’t sound familiar you might recognize the name of the first book: Clan of the Cave Bear. Yes, it is a somewhat cheesy movie but the book itself is well written and enjoyable. There are now 6 books total in the series and though I read the first four back in 1995 or so, the wait for the last two books was completely worth it.
Now that I’ve finished reading the newest book, “Land of the Painted Cavesâ€, I wanted to share my thoughts on it with you guys and find out what you think about this last book. Beware, spoilers abound after the break!
