Nerds win! (related link) 6:16am

Good morning! Smooth, but gloomy drive in with steady, gentle rain the whole way. Enjoyed listening to the first part of The Grand Inquisitor. Looking forward to more of it on the way home. Michelle has a scheduled Herceptin shot later today. 9:00am

Went with my teammate to Bamboo Fine Asian Cuisine for lunch. One of the better Chinese buffets I've had in recent memory. Quality ingredients, fresh and hot in a nice atmosphere. Not far off of I-495 in Westford, MA. 1:51pm

It's a bigg day for Digg, as they are launching their new site today. Currently its servers are getting hammered with folks going over to see what's new. 2:20pm

Because I've conquered a bunch of tests done with red, green, blue, alpha images, I'm now moving onto YUV type formats. YUV grew out of the video market. If we hadn't started with B&W television that needed to move seamlessly to color, YUV probably wouldn't have come to such prominence. 2:59pm

In yet another home efficiency upgrade we're replacing our aging builder grade central A/C unit with a new Carrier 4 ton, 16 SEER unit next week. 3:56pm

Another Pandora's Box opens: Full-Body Scan Technology Deployed In Street-Roving Vans 3:58pm

It's been a bit of a lazy evening. Drove home with less rain but still gloomy out. The lawns are loving it. Looked into some movies to put on Michelle's netbook for her flight. Watched a little of Dr. Quinn with the girls but couldn't get into the drama. 8:52pm
