Well, just when you think that Google can’t get any greater, they go ahead, and make a new search engine that will search for US patents. So if you are looking to patent a new device for sleeping… You know where to look.

Recently, Mark Frauenfelder wrote an interesting article about Newcomb’s Paradox.
Franz Kiekeben (who is a very funny cartoonist) does a nice job of describing Newcomb’s Paradox, which I’ve enjoyed contemplating, on and off, for many years. For those of you that may be unfamilliar with it, here it is.
A highly superior being from another part of [...]
This is some footage from filming at Brighton the other day.
So… I got an XMods RC Car. I have to say that this is one fun toy. I have to shout out my buddy Jeff for the hook-up over at RadioShack. So, these cars have kind of a cult following. They are totally customizable. You can add faster engines, all-wheel drive kits, lights, sway [...]

I love online services. Recently, I have been looking for more client based systems to help me be more productive. I have spent a lot of time surfing the internet, only to go to many pages over and over again, looking for updates, when I could have been using an RSS reader all along. So, [...]
I have to say, that I am a huge fan of the Office. Tonight’s episode was a great one. What was surprising was realizing that B.J. Novak, who’s character is Ryan the no-longer-temp is also the writer of many episodes. What a cool thing! I read an article where Kate Flannery (Meredith) wrote saying [...]
I admit, openly, that I love to ski. And, always trying to be as die-hard as I can, try to make the annual trip to the Warren Miller movie. More recently I have a hard time justifying spending $45 for two tickets to a movie… The only justification that I can find is that by [...]
I have this nagging thought inside my brain that tell me I will never have a full-fledged career. Sure, I have no doubt that I will be successful, and that I will work hard for the duration of my life. The problem lies in what to make of a career.
From the time that I was [...]
