You Are Bob, Don’t Be Jon

You Shall Now Be Called Bob

A friend showed me a picture that her youngest had drawn of her family. I noticed a ‘Mom’, ‘Dad’, ‘Sis’, ‘Me’, and ‘Bob’. After going through the names of her family members in my head while admiring the picture, I asked who ‘Bob’ was.

“She’s just learning to write and couldn’t spell Cody. So, he’s now Bob.”

You Can’t Be Jon

Another friend of mine has a young child of nearly the same age, who when asked what she wanted to be for Halloween next year said,

“I want to be Jon.”

Yea, she may have changed her answer to ‘SuperMan’ soon after, but I was worthy of a costume for a split second, and I was nowhere near the place.

I’m determined to finish another book tonight, and get it onto the *NEW* booklist page. I changed the page yet again to include a little quote that changes on each page load. Knowing this, you’re going to refresh the page a thousand times, aren’t you? Why must I do this rather than play GTA? Why?

Don’t Be Pete

The latest free project to anyone wanting to donate time/energy: Pete’s wife found an old CD player of Pete’s that doesn’t work. Like any self-respecting wife, she was going to chuck it. Like any self-respecting geek, Pete wants to keep it and make it into something. His idea was to create an MP3 Player/PC out of it that sits in his stereo rack and looks like a normal CD player.

This must be done for free
Pete’s wife may not learn of the project until completion
front buttons must work as originally intended
The sound outs on the back must work as intended
The LED panel on the front should work if possible
The device must have a way to change lists, load MP3’s
Sound quality is not paramount
