Electric Cars

One disappointing thing about going to electric cars is that you won't have those huge car explosions in movie car chase scenes anymore.

Just a thought.

Robot Apocalypse

If you don't think the robot apocalypse is coming soon, you should take a look at the videos below. You may want to start thinking about what life will be under our robot overlords. The scariest video is the last one. Not only do you have to be worried about what academics and DARPA are up to, but you also need to watch what your kids are doing with their LEGOs.

Don't Ask Obvious Questions

During a recent visit to my parents, I noticed some sweets in the kitchen. I am concerned for their health, especially my diabetic Dad.

"Mom, why are there Reese's® Peanut Butter Cups in the refridgerator?"

"Because your Dad likes them cold."

Of course.

Puppy New Year!

Happy New Year. Has it really been a year since my last post? Perhaps my New Year's Resolution should be to blog more often.

Lately I've been distracted by my energetic puppy. The best training advice I've seen so far is "you can only get a dog to do something you want by offering it something it wants". Lucky for me, my puppy will do anything for a few kibbles.

I've also become more aware of litter. I've always been disgusted by the bottles, wrappers, etc. that I see strewn along the path. But now I see so much more. When walking the puppy, it finds little pieces of trash to eat that I never noticed before. I spend as much time pulling little bits of paper and who-knows-what out of it's mouth as I do walking.
