Tim A. Cummins @ 10:13 pm  

Still very cold and damp here. I’m trying to stay inside as much as possible. I’m glad it started clearing off! Sure was beautiful this evening.

They like my Perpleus puzzle. I’m still stuck at obstacle 20. The total puzzle has 125 steps. Nearly got 20 twice today.

Many of my Bengali kids are still wearing flipflops. It was in the low 40s.

Admin duties now. Spent over an hour uninstalling programs and deleting add ons in my browser to stop the problem I was having uploading pictures. Sure does take time to figure stuff out.

Enjoying reading Smarter Than We Think” by Clive Thompson.

A very up beat book about how technology is improving our lives. I totally agree. I like his term “infinite memory.” Relates to how we can look anything up in a matter of seconds and how people are so archiving their lives that their memory approaches the infinite. Fascinating stuff.

Also liked Bill Gates’ editorial article in Wired magazine this month.

I’m trying to figure out what causes this zipper formation on con trail clouds.

These are from two different planes. Only certain areas get this pattern. I think it has to do with the engines in the plane synching up momentarily which produces a more concentrated section. Like oscillations on a pendulum.

Having trouble with my photo server tonight. Been dealing with malware on my computer that keeps giving me popups. Aargh. (Twenty four hours later I fixed it and laid in pictures. Took me another hour tonight too. Yow!)

Rainy cold day today.

Worked on some creative writing and posted that to my twitter account. Over 80,000 followers.
s
Recorded a new podcast.

Always fun!

This one is a great edition called “Pieces and Patterns.”

Ate lunch with Jesse. Good times!

We went to the ATT store to see when we’re able to upgrade to the new iPhone.

Came home to work on admin duties.

Off to the mission to help the kids.

I liked the new rugs.

Back home now after terrible traffic on 285. Rainy weather always causes that.

Admin duties now. Frustrated with my photo server. Hopefully, it’ll work right tomorrow. (I fixed it.)

I liked how these oil stains looked.

Rainy day. Beautiful lights.
