Managing Your Email Notifications

Here’s where you can manage email notifications and newsletters we send you even though you think you never signed up for anything.  
Digest Email

This is the news digested and spat back at you, kinda like birds feed their chicks chewed up worms.


Focus Newsletter

Every other day we send this newsletter to help focus and center your day.  Topics include, “Staying Focused,” “Centering Yourself,” “Keeping Focused,” “Focusing On Focus, “Why Did They Name That Car The Ford Focus.”


Partner’s Deals

Get timely deals from our “Marketing Partners.” We have no idea who these people but they gave us money for your email and that’s what’s keeping this business model afloat.


Midday Snack

Just a quick dose of tech news that can be summed in a headline, you already know about it and always concerns Apple, Facebook or Google.




Saturday Survey

When everyone is winding down, and those who observe the Jewish Sabbath are in synagogue, we send out this survey of relevant topics.


Sunday Survey

When everyone is recovering from hangovers, or attending church, we offer this survey to capture the pulse of the moment.


Events E-Lerts

When there’s an event that is happening right now that is infinitely more appealing than what you’re doing and you have no chance of getting to, Events E-lerts are in your face.  Some events are close by and free.  Some are on the other side of the planet with entrance fees in the thousands.

Jesus Christ What’s This

You Think You’re So Smart?

Twice weekly we send out really geeky and arcane queries about technology that reflect no intelligence whatsoever but will make you feel like you’re smart.
