If You Don’t Like the Weather in Texas…

Random Musings Header

People spend way too much time complaining about the weather. Especially in Texas – where there is no such thing as “normal” weather. This warm weather is great – but some people are even complaining about that! Of course, one of those people is a Russian friend of mine, so I can understand why he doesn’t like the warm weather. Still has Siberia in his blood, I guess. But no vodka – he doesn’t like Vodka.

There’s an old saying here in Texas: “if you don’t like the weather – just wait a few days. It will change.”

I hate the cold, anyway – so I am hoping it won’t change. Doubt I will get my wish. Besides – it is really hard to get in the holiday mood while walking around in shorts.

Let’s see… fall is here, a cold front in going to roll through at about 5:00-6:00 pm, so let’s turn on the A/C! It is cold in here.

I think I now have a good selection of random widgets on this site. Now I want to work on a cool page of people at the UTA CDE that are blogging. That will be a tab in the upper header, as a separate page.

I wish that I was living in Austin now. The upcoming Dark Knight movie has a cool promo at whysoserious.com. But it’s only for certain cities, like Austin. No Dallas. Ah, well.

Interesting article of the day:

Terabyte Storage for Cell Phones
A nanotech-enabled device could replace the flash memory used in portable electronics.

A thumb-drive sized hard drive with a Terabyte of storage? That’s over a thousand Gigabytes. I have an external hard drive at home that stores all of my files, programs, and music (mp3 format) – as well as a few home videos. That is only 250 GBs, and not even full. My whole life, including movie collection, could fit on a cell phone some day. That is crazy. But I want one already…
