9:01am - Well hello 'dere children. Happy Friday to
you all. I swam laps for 26 minutes straight this morning,
beating my previous record of 25 minutes. I'm telling you, work
out in the morning and you'll have energy all day, no joke.
Anyway, yesterday was crazy. I was out and about all day,
again, which is great because that means LOTS OF BILLABLE HOURS.

Geek Speak (Tiff, you can skip this part.)
Here's a sweet
article. People have been talking about networking home
appliances - toasters, microwaves, washing machines, etc. - for a
while now. Well, there's a company called iReady that has
created an easy and very affordable way for all electronics
manufacturers to include the ability for communications into their
products. The really stupid example they give is that your hot
pot could notify you when it's been used via e-mail or a text message
to your celly, whateva. "We'll know when grandma has made
tea!" Good lord people, get a brain! Here's some
stuff that would actually be useful;
Now that's stuff that makes sense. Their main point was the
you could monitor your elder parents and make sure they're not burning
the house down. I guess that could be useful.
Anyway, I got that from Technology
Review, great tech site.
Yesterday I had the pleasure of working with Tiff, which reminds me
that I have to re-post her senior picture. Somehow it got lost
in the shuffle when my entire site got wiped out, so I'm gonna fix
that really quick. OK, I'm so sorry Tiff! If you would
have bugged me once or twice I would have gotten it fixed much
quicker. :) Anyway, it's back up, so go
drool.
OK, now it's time for me to go do some work. Boring, I know,
but necessary.
Peace love dope
J to the R.
PS. - BG this weekend? Anyone else want to join in the
fun? Buzz me!
6:39pm
- I'm going crazy trying to get out of here for BG. I just
found what you see here on the right. This is a robot, built in
memory and all, sitting on a dime! I thought it was at least a
quarter, that's a fuckin' dime! Doesn't it look like a
tank? The article mentions how you could put a camera,
microphone, chemical/temperature sensor, or just about anything.
Wow. This is how small electronics are getting these days.

here for the CNN article.
This if the possibilities! Illegal things are first to
mind. Imagine little Tommy waking up in the middle of the night
screaming
"MOMMY THERE'S A ROBOT UNDER MY
BED!"
Hehe.
OK, so I just called James & decided not to go to
BG. Mike went to OSU and Jame's roommate wants to come home
tonight, so damn it I'm stayin' here. O'well, this stuff always
falls through. :( I'm going off on my computers right now,
all kinds of shit going on.
Here's another crazy thing I found today. You can
