We are currently running a sweet promotion where you can get 10 dollars off any NewsGator product for the holiday season. They are all awesome, but I would highly recommend NewsGator Go! 
Just click on the link near the penguin… nice touch on the image selection Tim Walker!!! I used to really like the penguin back in the day… still do, just not as much 
Along those holiday spirit lines, you wouldn’t believe the NewsGator office… it looks like the xmas decorators from Macy’s took over. It’s off the hook and very cool!

When I was a kid (9 o so) I remember being half asleep and watching in horror as Babe (Dustin Hoffman) got tortured by a mad Nazi dentist in the Marathon Man.  I’m not sure how I ended up tuning in, but I do know it freaked me out for quite some time. In fact, it still freaks me out.
Well, the other day, I got to feel Babe’s pain. I went the doc to remove a few pins in my hand resulting from a bicycle accident a few weeks ago.  To date, the experience hasn’t been bad. The worst part was breaking my carbon fiber Trek Madone.
But, removing the pins absolutely sucked. The doc wiggled out the first pin with a pair of high dollar pliers and I could feel shock waves throughout my body – that felt kinda like putting aluminum foil on a filling, but on a bigger scale. That process was quite uncomfortable.
But it got worse.  The second pin got stuck… picture the doc with his foot on the table yarning away. I joked that he probably needs to hit the gym. Pretending to be a tough guy the whole time I barely flinched. Inside, I was seeing stars and ready to pass out.
After it was all said and done, I had to sit in the doctor’s waiting room for about 30 minutes out of eyesight, wiping the sweat off, and regaining my composure. That sucked!
Here are some photos of the mangled thumb just before the fun began:
