There are many UFOs. All a UFO is is a flying object that hasn't been identified.

Runs a sandwich shop? Rastamon don't have no am-bee-shun.

Also, if the electric utility has nuclear power plants, his car is steam powered.

Only if it's powered by ground up eagles and other birds is it green.

There's a turkey baster and two lesbians somewhere in the middle, too, eh?

We don't have enough electricity, nor the infrastructure to distribute it, if EVs were to suddenly become the norm in vehicles.

The power grid to do that for everybody just doesn't exist.

I have a large mechanical wall clock made by Simplex. Simplex was a division of IBM back when IBM made wall clocks and time clocks for business. Because they are a Business Machine company. I wish it was older and branded IBM, and not branded by the split-off company. As it stands it's kind of like the 1960's version of a Lenovo.

What would be interesting would be to bring the spirit of these old systems into the modern age rather than just replicate them wholesale. Boot into a system which allows you immediate programming

Wow. Who would have guessed that the whole point in the Raspberry Pi is things like that?

I bought the Sandman comic books ("graphic novels"???) as they came out. Didn't start until about issue 17 tho, so I read the first series in digest form.

I worry about what the sausage mill that is Hollywood will do with the stories.

So the special membership card has five punchouts on it?

Comic books? Too long! Three panel comic strips!

I'd hesitate to call John McAfee a libertarian. Libertarians tend to be more dorky, and take themselves seriously.

You seem kind of huffy though, and use the term 'libertarian' similar to the way a Rush Limbaugh listener uses the term 'liberal.' You're a lot alike.

The important part many people seem to miss is that McAfee himself stated right up front that he stopped doing most of that stuff back in 1983. The world has changed a lot since 1983.

Musk might go down in history as the guy who cashed out of PayPal and spent the rest of his life dabbling with hobbies. This decade's Paul Allen. Or he might end up being seen as an updated version of Tucker. It's too early to tell.

They say the way to get into journalism school is to get rejected by the English department. Flunking Calculus helps, too.

Somebody needs to come up with a more effective term to describe TV-oriented appliances. Because the televisions that most people use in their homes don't have tops anymore. The top is more of an edge than a 'top' on modern televisions.
