Happy Everything, folks. I will be ringing in the new year doing my promotional show for Kodak digital crap. See ya in the next!

On the plus side, our cells do WAY more than those wimpy little communicators did in Star Trek. I still want a Phaser in the worst way, though.

Happy New Year to all my Swanky friends!:cheers:

Until my cell phone telepathically knows who I want to talk to without me indicating in any way, communicators (particularly of the Next Gen variety) win.

Happy New Year everyone. I've baracaded myself in my bedroom. The teens have taken over the rest.

8:30 and I'm seriously contemplating going to bed to read, which means I'd be asleep within an hour.

More like the dreaded tweens. [shudder]

Oh yeah - Guess I should re-read or rewatch. For that matter, maybe I'll re-read all the Odyssey novels.

I watched the fireworks of three parks from the roof of Imagination. (Shh ... no one is supposed to be up there.) It was amazing, and the Epcot finale was right above our heads, so close we could easily have been pelted with flaming fallout, but we weren't. It was a grand start.

We should have had our flying cars by now. Darn Sci-Fi writers. But I did see that LG made a phone with a friken movie projector built in! WTF? Are people realy going to project movies and clips from there phones?

Happy 010! ;)
