After missing yesterday with work related Trauma and yet another loss for the Soccer Eagles (only 5 to 1, we are improving fast) the Daily Grind is back. And today I have a demand to make of all you loyal readers.
Submit a review! I am going to be adding more reviews in the near future and try to build up that section of the site which has gone neglected too long. Don’t worry about images or links, I’ll add em when your done. Two paragraphs is all it takes. So tell us about the Movie/Book/Band/Sports Team/ Software/Whatever that you’ve been thinking about.
And with that simple request we move on to the grind…
Gadget lust rears its head again. A review of the new Nokia 9500 for your pleasure. I am still looking for that perfect combination device and this one comes pretty close. Fold out phone with a big screen and a full QWERTY keyboard. Throw in an MP3 player and I would be in heaven.
Fuel Cells: Not just for concept cars anymore. Fuel cells are the next big thing for powering large equipment but now Casio has prototypes out there for a fuel cell laptop battery. With a projected use of 16 hours, it could seriously change the way a lot of people use their laptops. Release date is set for 2007.
I’ve known for awhile that power sources were the next big hurdle toward shrinking electronics even further. With a small fuel cell, almost anything is possible. I my lifetime I expect to see cars that cost one tenth the current cost to operate and personal electronic devices that use your own bodies physiology to power them. Rememebr, you heard it here first.
Sometimes, creative writing is not called for. These essays are short and hilarious. Funny to me because I didn’t have to grade them. The person who wrote them is probably in need of some counseling. Lucky for us, we don’t know him so we can laugh with impunity.
Where will you be when Andy returns. Andy Kaufman told his friends that he would fake his own death and return 20 years to the day afterwards. Well, that day is May 16th. So be ready, you’ll want to rememebr where you were when you heard the news.
Awesome mock up of the Ghostbusters gear. "We are each wearing an unliscenced nuclear accelerator on our back." Ah, the words all geeks long to hear. And now Jason Eaton has lived the dream. My firewall prevents me from accessing ebay, but you can actually buy this rig if you are so inclined.
Church of the Sub Genius. Don’t know what to say about this one. Just read through it. As with all religions, you will find bits you like and bits that make you scratch your head.
Library of Alexandria found? Well, the scientists think so. I am torn on this one. Part of me thinks it will be a gateway to a whole new understanding of the ancient world and part of me wonders what the overdue fines will be on the Dead Sea Scrolls.
And since I’ve got a thing for recursive images… on the heels of The Swirl found in Friday’s Grind I offer you this novel little version of a feline chain letter. The Infinite Cat!
That’s it folks, and remember no matter what anyone tells you, Coca Cola is not an effective spermicide
