I WON ...

Lousy $3. I only managed to hit one Powerball number. Apparently, more than 300 mil prize will be claimed by one Indiana ticket.

That must be why I felt an urge to drive to Indiana to buy a ticket. No, not really.

Thumbs down ...

I like to watch Roger Ebert's show. I find it informative and entertaining to listen to so called movie intellectuals discuss contemporary movies. Mr. Ebert has been missing for quite sometime now due to his illness. I guess the show's distributor is trying to move on without him.

I became aware of the distributor trying to obtain Ebert's thumb up/down trademark. Read this funny article. I wish I had a trademark to sell. Sigh!

Worst product name ever?

I was reading fakesteve.blogspot.com when I found this article about a digital music player from Germany. I mean, WOW. I am thinking this will be renamed, but who knows. I don't wnat to get into trouble, so I am not even mentioning the name. Follow the links.

I met R2D2 ...

I ran into R2D2 in front of my local Bestbuy. It never feels real unless you actually see one. Well, I actually saw a R2D2 mailbox. It was not as nice as I thought, but cool none the less. I just wished Princess Leia was there to deposit a piece of mail.

I maybe burning bridges ...

I hope not. I have been putting in long hours at work. Teaching AP Physics for the first time is quite the challenge. I am trying to stay one chapter ahead of the class and add in labs. I am challenging my students act like beginning college students. I hope it works out.

I am not very good at keeping in touch with people. Long hours are not making my inadequacy any easier to overcome. I should call some people and say hi!
