X-10 - My Creation Liveth!

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

Recently, I stumbled quite unexpectedly across a product called X-10. It’s a technology that lets your computer run your house electronics. They have a product for everything… lights, cameras, action, speakers.

Some day, if on the odd chance I become so incredibly rich that I couldn’t possibly do anything with my money, I plan to build a house that turns on my lights for me, opens my doors, tells me the time, warns of intruders, and wakes me up every morning at a good time (seriously, there’s a guy who’s done this. looky here.)

Until then, sigh. Flip switch, see light, clap hands, sigh again.

A Bit of Childishness

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

My sister and I watched another movie last night. It was called “The Capture of Grizzly Adams”.

If anyone has seen it, please know that I give it five stars out of five.

The movie was one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. Every cliche I could think of was in there, as well as all the bad acting, impossible events, and all that ballyhoo. It wasn’t mean to be a comedy, but the movie was hilarious!

I wouldn’t recommend going out and buying it, as if you could do that anyway. It’s a 1985 film. However, if you want to see a typical western, with Mean-Ole-Mr.-Grumpy bad guys, Goody-Goody good guys, wishy-washy townsmen, and a fake tornado, rent the movie right away.
