Fred’s Dance

Last fall, our Band Booster President was caught, enjoying the band at a football game. He’s awesome enough to give me permission to share this with everyone! Dance Fred, dance!!

Surface

Have you seen this? I’ve seen video of this before but no lengthy explaination of this new technology until Gates was on The Today Show with his demo model this morning. Looks like it’ll be available in a home version in about 2 years. Pretty cool stuff….

Lost

http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=thebigbenfors-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&asins=B00005JNOG&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=72E96A&f=ifr Daniel and Krez have both been telling me how much they enjoy the TV show Lost and that I’d like it too. I had downloaded a catch up episode from iTunes which was what really made me want to see it all from the beginning. I’ve avoided watching any of Season 3 as it happens because I had a feeling (which was confirmed by Krez & Daniel) this is a show better understood and enjoyed when watched from the beginning. So, I went out and bought Season 1.

It’s a six disk set with a seventh disk that’s all bonus stuff. (I just got this yesterday so I obviously haven’t gotten to watch too much, much less get to disk 7.) I have just finished disk 1 and I can say that I am now hooked! Of course, I ask all the obvious questions – “What’s out there in the jungle?”, “Where is that signal coming from?”, “Who else has been on the island?”. I am a bit at a disadvantage to the mystery of Lost because I watched that teaser episode aired during Season 3, I kind of know what’s coming and who’s whom. Things become a little more predictable then. Anywho, it’s good stuff.

The characters cover the spectrum of human nature and as expected from a bunch of people who are stranded on a deserted island, lots of emotion. There are friendships made and conflicts that arise. If you haven’t started your Lost experience yet, I highly recommend it! 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Spring Cleaning

Today, I’m cleaning my office at work. It’s been quite a disaster area for a while now but luckily, because I created the disaster, I actually know where most things are. Today is mostly about throwing out really old stuff and filing away the stuff from this past year that needs to be archived. I think I’m going to have to pull everything out of my office in a week or so as well as they are cleaning the floors in the office. That will be the bit task…that I can hopefully put off until next week. I’ll need a box or four before I can commence that one. Anywho, I’ve gotta get back while there is still momentum. 😀

I’m kinda on one…

It’s good to have a friend at the local AT&T store….

iPhone Waiting Lists

However, I will probably wait until the end of the summer to try to get one. I want to see some practical reviews first.
