Rick Broida, writer of CNET's popular CHEAPSKATE blog, brings daily deals and gadget reviews (Soundscoopz?) to dedicated techno-geeks and bargain hunters. Rick talks tech, the awesomeness (and suckiness) of working at home, and searching for new things to get excited about (other than porn), like TRAPPED IN A ROOM WITH A ZOMBIE.

Also this week: Nancy Reagan and the end of an era of political civility, dignity and class; Calvin Johnson walking away from football, the Detroit Lions, and losing (while he still can); Peyton Manning, retiring at the top after a kick ass career; and winter stepping aside for the drunken green-soaked festival that is St. Patrick's Day.
