Level Of Difficulty at Work: 0.35 out of 10
Time During Lunch: Medium
Two interesting food tidbits, sorta like good news / bad news.
Good news (well, if your into it):
Too bad i don't live in japan which is good (theres no guns there) and bad, where i can't get strawberry flavored Cheetos. Fuzzy Cheese Balls dipped in strawberry flavored chocolate! The ultimate sweet and salty snack! Only sold in japan, my tummy thanks thee for being far far away from it.
Bad news:
Talking about banning crap. Banning guns is bad, UK Doctors want to ban pointy knives 'cuz they're bad, and now in the state of Mississippi is trying to pass a law banning Fat people from eating at restaurants. People with Body Mass Index's of 30+ = too bad so sad.
I think a better way is peoples BMI's of 30+ should be given a different menu, involving healthy stuff, hows that for an amendment?
Ban! Ban everything! This country of the free is so not.

Today there was busyness around me. I especially liked one where a lady got stuck in one of the problematic elevators. Once in a while this elevator will either 1)stop between the 1st and 2nd floor 2)drop, giving you that sinking feeling fast, (sorry elevators don't roll). Lady starts freaking out saying she has a medical emergency, she has cancer. What the? Could it be cloisterphobia? No. Anxiety attack? No. Heart Problems? No. The usual gammut of medical problems? No. Just cancer. Is the cancer attacking? No. The engineer is there and he calls the elevator guys. The lady's lawyer comes and freaks out wagering lawsuits for all whos there. Ok, that doesn't really solve anything does it? Total time the lady is there about 25minutes (she claims an hour). Elevator dood comes, talks to the lady and finds out she somehow pushed the elevator stop button. She gets freed while 2 fire engines and an ambulance arrive with axes and gurneys with defribs in the ready. She refuses medical treatment. what about the cancer?
In other gizmo toy news.
Anybody want a ultra mad flashlight that can start fires?
From Wicked Lasers Inc. Appropriately named the torch. 300$ 4100 lumens, 15 minute run time.
A $300 flashlight that runs for 15 minutes? ehh i dunno..

Did more of nothing today. Man whats going on?
Anyhow while roaming the net i found two neato tech things.
One is the newest version of Google Earth has a flight simulator in it. Although it's a sketchy one it's semi-neat, if your a Google Earth Fan. go Download the new stuff and bust a Control-Alt-A and follow the prompts!
The other neato software is the latest in digital cameras. About a few months ago there was 'face priority' software where the camera would find your face and adjust the white balance to it. Well Sony One-Up's with a smiley face detector. Yep, it won't take the pic unless you smile.. Good for those times where that individual only smiles for 1/10th of a second when asked.

Went to Chabot and tried to tune somethings. I unmounted the harris bipod on my Contender and readjusted the scope for that. 20 clicks up, 10 clicks left. I tried shooting some 68grainers off the contender and i never knew what would happen with a slow-twist barrel. It didn't even hit paper, i thought my scope was mounted wrongly until i tried some 55gr's and those worked.
I also tried to adjust this adjustable gas plug on the Garand but ran out of ammo doing so. A coworker of mine came along and shot a bit.
Anyhow Sony comes with the best of tech goodies:
The 2.5-inch prototype display supports 16.8 million colors at a 120 x 160 pixel resolution, is 0.3 mm thick and weighs 1.5 grams. Nice! I'm still waiting for regular OLED displays to be out like this 11" thats coming soon sometime this year:
Can you say Contrast Ratio: 1,000,000:1 while being 3mm thick?

Lets see:
Friday night, went over to some of Fluffielady's Co-workers for a dual-birthday action at the twin peaks area. Funny thing was that i wanted to get my drink on and fluffielady was feeling tired n sickie. After hanging out there for a while she was lively and i'm tired n sleepy. Thats right, drunk school teachers woo!
Saturday pretty much hung out all day at Lil Lizzies Baptism:
The ceremony was ok, the priest kinda just went through the motions kinda. There was another couple getting their child baptised an among that crowd was some parents that me n bert haven't seen since the 8th grade. So i ambushed them and they all had strange faces when i tried to tell them who i was. Flashback funness!
Reception at the Banana Island, we were bombarded with tons of food! Chatted with some aunties and others that i see here n there. Time flew because we were hanging out there from 12:30 till 4pm!
Today we woke up around 9:30am. Fluffielady has a Cookie Lee conference type dealios so i'm gonna try to get a haircut (heh), wash n wax my car (whoa!), do laundry and shop for groceries. Ahh yea work it!
Tech News:
Last year's 108" LCD was well, so last year. 'cuz this years Display winner is:
TechnoVision 205" Screen, it doesn't say what it's display type is though.
Another neat thing that i found is PackageMapping.com You stick in your FedEx, UPS, DHL packages and it shows you where it's at and how far it's traveled. It just takes the data that you see on the shippers site and plots it on a geographic map. Neato!

Technews:
The navy has invented a 8-megajoule rail gun. It's an electromagnetically accelerated bullet. All gunpowder free! They're trying to build 16 and 32-megajoule versions that may come online at 2020 Doing as much damage as a Tomahawk missle. So instead of a million dollar tomahawk, it's a 10,000$ zap. Only downside is that the railgun can't be used as much, due to the fact that it does use lots of electricity.
Who said videogames make u lazy n fat? This dood's using his Nintendo Wii to lost 9pounds in 6 weeks! With nothing more than 30min a day of Nintendo Sports. He's got the whole bodyfat loss, pics, all that on that site.
If you wanted to know when the next Syzygy (an alignment of 3 celestial bodies, duh!) is for $23k this is the watch to get! Christiaan van der Klaauw's Planetarium 2000. On the top right click on the little icon and select High Speed. Tight!
Tomorrow i'm going to therapy. Nothing a little mountain air can't cure! Mwahha!
