.Harrier Jet for sale on eBay bought by 7-year-old, but no sale
Have you ever wanted to get yourself your very own VTOL (Vertical Take-Off Landing) plane? Apparently, there was an EX RAF 4 Harrier jet on sale on eBay. I’m just going to assume that any guns or missiles had to be removed, and I won’t get into the legalities of what it would probably take [...]
Insignia’s Infocast - The Facebook, Internet Radio, YouTube, WiFi Alarm Clock?
I was thinking, with all the high tech stuff I have, why is it that I still have one of those alarm clocks that starts my day with a decidedly low tech “click” followed by the dreaded, increasingly louder “beep beep beep”? I mean seriously, shouldn’t I be able to do better than that? Today [...]

BAE Systems creates e-ink camo for tank armor
I have heard of stealth technology under development for years that uses some sort of cloak of invisibility reminiscent of Harry Potter. I suppose someone wants the car that James Bond drove in Die Another Day. You know, that one that could turn completely invisible? I believe that Q summarized it as having cameras on [...]
Teach Parents Tech - Because someone had to do it
I know first hand the pitfalls of trying to teach my parents how to do stuff on the computer. I also know firsthand how frustrating it can be. I won’t even go into how most of this private instruction takes place at 10 pm, over the phone… “Yes Dad, the button IS there, in the [...]
BMW: Emergency Stop Assistant - because you can’t drive unconscious
Sometimes when I am walking down the stairs I wonder, what would happen if I fainted right now? Of course I spend a goodly percentage of my life wondering about weird stuff like that. I won’t tell you anymore about it. It’s probably not a good thing. However, at least now I know what could [...]
