When it comes to IT products, don’t believe the hype, ever.
- Ganz
It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead. The chain of destiny can only be grasped one link at a time.
- Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)
I still don’t get it, why do smart people pay top dollar for IT products that become obsolete in a year’s time. Haven’t they heard that products get better?
- Ganz
An idealist is one who, on noticing that a rose smells better than a cabbage, concludes that it will also make better soup.
- H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
I am not sure if there is such a thing as destiny or the fact that it applies to me. When I was young, my ambition was to be one of those people who made a difference in this world. I don’t even care if people remember my name because what good is praise to the dead but what matters most to me now is that I managed to do something really good and great for someone special.

I haven’t been blogging regularly because I am having an eye infection all week long.
I already saw the eye doctor thrice and the good news he says, I am recovering well.
The bad news he says is that I am among the few in population that has oily eye lids and that so much so is the culprit. He told me that regular cleaning of the eye lids is recommend and that I should not strain too much.
Funny, you are telling this to guy who has a motto on his shelf that reads, You can rest when you are dead.
Guess God does have a sense of humor
By the way I am not weaning my glasses or contacts right mow. It’s such a pain not being able to play Metal Gear Solid 4 since I paid good money for the game and guide.
Oh well, like it or not, life marches on without us.

All we actually have is our body and its muscles that allow us to be under our own power.

My life is a one boring sequence after another.
Actually most people are bored with their lives. Some have realized it, others either refuse to see the truth or are too ignorant to even comprehend it.
That is why I have started the Ganz Initiative. a plan to make my life achieve three major goals.
1) make my life as simple as possible
2) as fun as possible
3) and as enriching as possible

Real life is messy, inconsistent, and it’s seldom when anything ever really gets resolved. It’s taken me a long time to realize that.

I am taking some time off to rest my eyes.
My eyes water whenever I look at the computer screen or any bright light source.
I guess it’s probably due to the fact I don’t rest my eyes as instructed or I am developing sensitive eyes.
