Update on Molly: They have her!

We just received word that John and Katharine picked her up today. Katharine has a good write up on the first hours on their blog.

Friday the 13th is even more unique this time!

Think the world is going to end in 2012?

Well what about this:

"At 11:31:30pm UTC on Feb 13, 2009, Unix time will reach 1,234,567,890.
Where will you be at this momentous second?" - from Bell Labs
While not as big a deal as Y2K, this could be a significant event. Or not. If you don't know what 'UNIX Time' is, be very concerned. ;-)

I know I spent Y2K with a pager waiting for the world to end, so I'll have a beer or three tomorrow night to make up for it.

Sorry, just geeking out.

British Humor


I love the show. Now I can get some clothes! Too bad the US version was killed before it took off.

How 70's Science Fiction influenced my interests today


How many can you name?

Voltron!

Unfortunately I didn't get into Dr. Who until a few years ago, but I know most of the others. I had a Space 1999 ship. I remember begging my parents for one for Christmas.

I also remember watching UFO with my Dad. Ah mini-skirts and purple hair

If you want to try to figure them out, see here and here.
