Time Travelers Surround Us


I spend a lot of time in front of one of my computers. I feel the time is spent wisely and frugally. There are those in my life who have suggested that obsessive is a more apt description of the time I put in on the computer. I do have a life beyond my desk. I am a doting grandparent. Doting as to love to hang out with them as opposed to doting, I can barely walk. I on occasion frequent the links and pare my insufferable ego down to a bare minimum. My Ryobi 18Volt tool case is my friend and I have been known to use the tools in it with a minimum amount of personal injury. I even once parked my fanny in an inflatable boat in the pool and read for an hour.

Here is my supposition, for all of the time I spend in front of the computer I do have a life beyond it. Either there are many people who have absolutely no life beyond the computer what so ever or….they are time travelers. Think about how often you see some people post on whatever site you frequent. They post 10 times a day and you see them posting on other sites as well. How is that possible? Well, it’s easy if you come back to the present, spend 24 hours here posting drivel (well not always drivel, sometimes pabulum) then return to your present 5 minutes after you left. It is the only way it can be done. Even obsessives have to eat, sleep, take care of unsavory bodily functions and maybe even earn a living. How else can they spend so much time on the computer if they aren’t time travelers? Please note, if my posts cease abruptly they have seen this post and have come back to snatch me before I let the cat out of the….

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You ...

Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI 2.3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer Review

Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI 2.3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer Review Item #: 75140 | Model #: 20414 When I started this blog, I assumed I would be only talking tech. Well that led to philosophic musing and then comments on other stuff. I’m not sure where a pressure washer fits but regardless I am writing about it. I was power washing the mildew off the siding and thought the odor was the detergent I was using. When I looked over my shoulder and saw the grey smoke pouring out of the pressure washer, I realized what the odor really was. Considering the age of my venerable electric power washer, I concluded that discretion being the better part of safety and how water and electricity don’t play well, I trashed my old power washer. After much research, I found the Troy-Bilt 20414 was the best bang for the buck I could find. Keep in mind I am a consumer, not some testing house, so I make my purchases based on research and price point. I wanted electric but my boys who participated in the purchase, ...
