The first throughs of Winter
The last
couple of days have been cool and clear. The weekend was rainy and
cold. It felt great. it is to warm up the rest of the week. I should
live somewhere cooler, and dryer, with hills, and more trees.
Some updates
I have a Halloween party
soon. I need to get the pictures that are on my camera off so I can
have it free for the party. I'll put some links up when they are
ready.
I read a short article about abundance
today. Some problems are due purely to over abundance. Traffic
congestion, obesity, even communication trouble could be attributed
to the fact that we have more than we need. It creeps me out.
The
next version of Microsoft Windows “Longhorn” has a
developer's kit
ready for use. These things are always full of bugs. They are good
for getting an idea of the changes, but the number of addenda will be
massive I bet.
Money
I'll tell you one thing, I hate
worrying about money. I may not be the nicest guy day to day,
but I'm a bad man when it comes to making the bills. Ever since I
went to Florida with some friends and felt those empty pockets I've
been desperate to keep money in my wallet. Not just cash, the whole
survival thing kicks in. Get between me and rent, and the fight or
flight response activates. I'm fine now. There have been times when
I've worried Tpro will sap my resources. So far the only
challenge has been time and effort. Time will tell.
Korean phones
I
was watching a Korean cop movie yesterday
and I noticed some really cool mobile
phones. One of the cops had a phone that looked just like mine. He
popped off a styles from the back and slid
open the keypad to reveal a pad to write
on. He entered Korean letters and sent off
a text message. The movie was lame, but the phones were neat.
I
watched an Australian movie later that had
the same type phones I've seen in the US. In Europe people keep
getting in trouble for using their mobile phones to send live sports
events to their friends. There was also a case where some people in a
night club filmed a rape. It is a mixed bag.
