Project Glass

I have been selected as one of 4300 people to look ridiculous while trying out the new Google Glasses.   I am excited to get my hands on some of the most cutting edge tech and put it through its paces.

I cant wait to use them in my three favorite areas. 

Being a Father.   I love hanging out with my son and cant wait to take the Google Glasses with us to the Saint Louis Zoo so I can instantly take pictures of Landon and be able to look up facts about the animals as we are watching them and seem like the smartest dad ever.

Being a Hacker.  I cannot wait to get my hands on these things and see how they work.  I cant wait to dissassemble examine the hardware and software.  I want to push them to their limit and see if I can make them do what they werent designed for.

Being a Speaker. I cannot wait to see if there is a way to record my talks from my “POV” along with displaying my notes so that I always can see them and dont have to break focus with the audience.

Bonus Idea:  Cheating at trivia nights before they get banned. I am going to rent myself out to teams as a trivia ringer and really clean up on the triivia fund raising circuit.

Now I just need to come up with the $1500.  : )

Meet the luckiest guy in the world. 

A problem clearly stated is a problem half solved.

No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.

Analogies are like cars in that they sometimes they don’t work.

Told my son not to touch the laptops in my office. So he brought his own keyboard to try to hack my Ubuntu box.

You are responsible for everything you do, whether you meant to do it or not.

You are guaranteed failure if your goal is to please everyone.

Thats retarded…

I say “that’s retarded” way more often than a person with above average communication skills should.  Today is the start of a national campaign to stop the r-word.  I would appreciate if you would take some time to read my friends blog post and join me in removing the word from your vocabulary.
