You know, sometimes I wonder why I just don't get it over and move to Europe. I mean, their working hours are less and their productivity is higher. It goes back to one of my old theories...the more time you have, the more time you waste. Just go back and think about it for a second, who hasn't waited until the last minute to finish a project in school? Why get it over with now, you still have 2 or 3 weeks until it's due? Give people more time, they'll slack off more. Give them less time and they'll rush around to complete it. Maybe that makes too much common sense for most people, who knows?

Use the heat from a car engine to brew coffee while you drive. Add a bottle of water weekly and some coffee grinds (filter changes would be necessary) and make your own coffee while you drive to work. Single cup dispenser (those fancy metal ones that keep your coffee warm) with a spill proof design (or at least something very close to one).
Crazy idea for today: Bet on horse races using live odds, but with fake money. Turn it into 3-4 race tournaments to encourage users to stick around and give out prizes (free meals at the racetrack restaurant, gift certificates to wager with, etc).

This blog is now a crazy ideas blog. Please note, if any patents are filed for devices similar to this after today's date, I'm going to pull a RIM lawsuit on you.

1) Mobile device tied in with satellite radio to allow you to bet on horse races while you drive (good for those stuck in traffic...gives you something to do).

2) Real time blood pressure monitor that is WiFi enabled. Lets doctors get real time updates on a variety of paitents all from their office.

That's it for now, as I get these ideas at work, I'll post them up.

Since when did blogging become a legitimate form of news? All of a sudden a few people in the media got a hold of blogging and it's become legitimate??? WTF?? I compare blogging with that homeless guy yelling out to anybody will listen. Sure he's making a noise, but does anybody really care and should we be taking him seriously? If the answer is yes, then put a keyboard and WiFi connection in front of him and call him a blogger on inner city relations. He's got his ear to the ground (litteraly, he sleeps there at night). I should create a phony history and see if I get picked up by a media outlet. That'd be pretty good...and you all know I'd have a field day with something like that. Espically if it's the AMERICAN media...yeah the ones who are picking on Neil Young for expressing his opinion. Evidently unless you're a citizen of the USA (not just a resident) you're not allowed to call for an impeachment. He did bring up a good point towards the end of the article.

"I was waiting for someone to come along, some young singer 18 to 22 years old,
to write these songs and stand up," Young told The Los Angeles Times.
"I waited a long time. Then I decided that maybe the generation that has to do this
is still the Sixties generation."


Well...the Dixie Chicks tried that, and look what it did for their career. He should have said we need somebody Intelligent and Talented to stand up and make a name for themself. Sadly, this won't happen which is why the established artists have to do it themselves.
