Here are the telltale signs of LRN2’s new toys – Apple stickers, large and small.  The big ones came with his laptop and the little ones came with his iPod.  Of course.  Slightly fuzzy Great Art courtesy of the exclusive iPhone-cam and (a merely symbolic) part of my famous Machinery series.

I have tons of those Apple stickers, and I can never figure out something cool to do with them.  I even have – get ready for it – a few of the old-school rainbow Apple stickers.  Those are certainly collectors’ items by now, no?  I just looked them up, and somebody is trying to sell a single one on eBay for twelve bucks.  If that’s not cool, I don’t know what is. Anyway, I don’t want to look like either a geek or a jerk, so they’re all in a drawer right now.  Any suggestions?

Greetings from the train! I’m trying hard to improve how I use my train time, and doing a bit more blogging is one part of that. Right now, I’m on the morning train, in fact, having finished my hour of work already and not quite having reached the Great America station. Also listening to Car Talk on my iPod.

Arriving now. See you this afternoon.

That didn’t last long. Good afternoon! I’m back. Had a good day at work. Lots to get done still this afternoon. I need to finish this post, index 200 names, get the Arduino data transmittal function working right, attend two church meetings, and remember to put the magnet I bought at the Grand Canyon into my briefcase. Everything but the meetings and the magnet will be done in the train, time and laptop battery permitting, fortunately.

Had a good iPhone telecon today. We’re very close to our initial release – just need to get the final name incorporated and get final Legal approval. Any minute now. I’m excited to get it into users’ hands. That’ll get the trouble ticket pipeline started up too, I expect.

I found another interesting and highly meaningful website today: The Art of Manliness.  Very entertaining and a good read.  I particularly enjoyed the article on man caves, which was linked to by Instapundit.  It got me thinking – I have my own office now, and it looks terrible.  I need to turn it into a really cool man cave.  I’ve always been kind of partial to the old English club look, but I’m open to suggestions.

I guess I have a garage I could do something with too, but I really want to start with my office.  Or should I call it my study?  My library?  What sounds coolest?

Not much else exciting right now, so I’ll leave my Loyal Readers with this shocking food violence news: hamburger-related injuries!

See you tomorrow.
