Generations in play

posted in media |

Some years back, I watched a fun spy movie with the power couple Brad and Angelina. You might have seen it: Mr And Mrs Smith. Did well at the box office, came with a few good scenes. Worth the dime. This evening, I had a chance to see a similar plot, used to provide some decent giggles. No power couple, but Zach and Jon (Hamm) did work well together. I suggest that you see this one, as well: Keeping Up With The Joneses. After all, movies are supposed to amuse. Besides, the current administrators of the US are not far removed from this sort of slapstick.

Moving right along. I’m now (sort of) committed to learning more about Arduino. Haven’t seen one, but I think I have a plausible use for a neat board with great I/O. Spent time on the phone discussing specs with a local technophile, and we’ve started trading product flyers. Who knows where this will lead.

Newfoundland is getting plastered with yet another blizzard. Any time your town receives better than 95 cm of snow is not a good day; after the arrival of calendar spring, it’s worse. I’m glad we are no longer in the focus of the season. Might get to put the big boots away as early as next week, although mud is still a possibility.

Two more grand-nieces have joined the family. Wow, that makes me feel old. Generations in play. It seems like “only yesterday” that I met my first grand-uncle. Now, I’m there.
