Twenty years ago today, my wife Karen had an opportunity to fly in the backseat of an F-16 (General Dynamics Fighting Falcon). Her and the pilot took off going from 0 mph to 350 mph in under 10 seconds. After the ride, I had her write her story in our family blog.

I had two of these in the 1980s. They were called the Commodore Vic-20 and the Commodore 64. Some of the Sinclair owners can make the same claim too. 😀
This keyboard is actually an entire computer. Just plug it into a monitor and you’re set. Pricing isn’t finalized yet for the HP Eliteboard G1A, but HP says the starting price should come in under $1,000.

I am uncertain about my feelings when a professional fails to use proper capitalization and punctuation in formal online correspondence. However, I do know that it does not evoke positive feelings within me.

Sleeptracker App: "On weekends, people similar to you sleep an average of 7 hours 3 minutes each night."

Translation for "people similar to you": You're getting older. You've reached the age that you'll be sleeping less each night so don't expect more.

Me: But, I'm only getting 6 hours of sleep!

There are times I wonder if I should buy a guitar or two. Not to learn how to play but to have them in the background of my camera images so everyone else thinks I already know how to play them. #humor
