Xerox drone

CNN reported yesterday that “Iran Says It’s Building a Copy of Downed US Spy Drone”. Two years from now, CNN will be reporting that Iran’s new drones are bombing their own capital 🙂

Multi-runs

Went for a run at Fowler Park. After my second mile, ran into Dan and Greg. They slowed down enough for me so I could post my life’s best 7:24 mile and then 7:40 and 8:00 miles. Then met up with Samaresh Mukhopadhyay and Amitesh Mukherjee and their daughters Paroma and Esha for a couple of more miles. Finally we put in a 150 meter dash at 4:43 min/mile pace. Afternoon nap cannot come soon enough for me 🙂

Colombian hookers

Another classic from Conan O’Brien …. “Did you hear how they caught those Secret Service agents with prostitutes in Colombia? Apparently the men were walking around wearing nothing but their sunglasses and those earpieces.”

Take that Garmin

This is why women should not complain about men not asking for directions. As we were walking on a downtown street to visit a gallery where Sharmila’s friend’s paintings were on display, I checked my iPhone maps and told her we were headed the wrong way. She looked up and said – “No. All the Indians are coming from this street. We are headed the right way”. That’s how she judges directions!!! Garmin and Tom Tom has nothing on my wife. (and yes, she was wrong 🙂 )

Help!

Stuck with the following question while having dinner by the beach with family. “Name single word country whose name has maximum number of vowels”. We have come to 5 (Australia). Any more with 5 or maybe more?

Skymall magazine

Skymall magazine – cover page ad proudly hawks a keyboard that is spill proof and “dishwasher safe”. No less!!! Dishwasher safe! Now, which one of us has not been annoyed by the accumulating dirt on our keyboards and in an inspired moment then flung them for a good spin with our china and silverware into the dishwasher for a grand old rinse and heat dry cycle? We can rest easy now. There is a product for us! Coming up next from the same “21st Century Ideas Retrofitted for the 19th Century Department” – a hard disk that can be cleaned with your vacuum!!! 🙂
