I want a …thoughts? suggestions?

When is the best timing? I think the last release was in October. Does that mean a new one will come soon? Will the prices drop?

I shouldn’t buy one, but really have the urge!

New Verizon Phone

Has anyone seen the for the new home ?  It looked interesting. I’m not sure that it will really catch own however, due to the fact that our computers will only continue evolving rendering an additional machine unnecessary.  What do you think?

Big Foot, Aliens and Nessie Oh My

For those of you who do not know there is a great radio program that comes on in the middle of the night called Coast to Coast AM with George Norie…..it used to be hosted by the great Art Bell who does still fill in from time to time.  I enjoy this radio program for various reasons not the least of which is that it has the undertone of conspiracy.  There is something calming about late night radio because most people are asleep.  Anyway, I love documentaries, etc. about and such things.  It seems to me that the best lies have the seasoning of some truth.  I’m not saying that exist, but what the heck happened at Area 51?!

End of the World 2012

Of course I don’t believe that the world is ending in 2012, nor do I ascribe to astrology and its relatives, however does anyone else find it interesting that the Mayan calander ends in 2012 and that Nostradamus seemed to predict that something interesting if not catastrophic would be happening in that year…….Vote for Palin…2012!

Title: Lemons into lemonade

 

Picture this: You’re walking past a colleague’s computer when you notice something strange jutting out from the machine.  On closer inspection, you realize that it is part of a finger, inserted into the USB drive and left there.  A script for a bad Halloween movie?  Actually, it’s the latest technological breakthrough.

You’ve heard of the “thumb drive,” a memory stick which can be inserted in your computer’s USB to download and swap files.  Now comes the “nail drive,” a 2 GB memory stick which is attached to the nail on your finger.  The only problem is, you have to lose your finger first.  Then you can replace it with this prosthetic device and its attached electronics.

 Today’s BBC World News tells us about a Finnish computer programmer who did just that after losing one of his fingers in a motorcycle accident.  The finger is not permanently attached to his hand, so it can be left plugged into a computer when in use.  That’s an image you don’t want to store in your mind.  The man is planning to upgrade his finger to include more storage and wireless .
