I still hate mosquitoes, even if they can pollinate some plants, which is

You were up at 3:31 AM? Or is that my time, and you were up at 5:31 AM?
Watchew doing, running a dairy?


I am retired and now live like a cat. When tired I sleep or take a nap. I
no longer live by the clock. However, I do tend to the animals, I do let
them out at daybreak feed them and lock them up at dusk. The dog wanted out
that night and I probably was up at that time 3:31 AM.

I am also typing this usenet message while I am still in bed, lying on my
back, iPad on my chest, listing to the local news radio just before I let
the animals out.

Since I got this iPad, I find my life has changed allot. I find myself
attached to it almost 24/7. It is my iPod music player, Internet radio and
local HD radio that can pickup 24 thousand radio stations and play them on
the wireless stereo speakers, email, book reader, weather alert, news
paper, news reader, drawing pad, night time star mapping guide, I now
easily keep journals of gardening and other activities. I now keep track of
exercise time, diet and blood pressure, I watch my TV shows and movies on
it, remote control for tv, remote control for home home heating and
lighting, remote control for my main computer as well, cooking recipes,
alarm clock ( take garbage out , because I am loosing track of what day it
is ). I pay my bills with it and reminds me when they are due, my GPS for
driving and going places.

And yesterday I found out that my favorite garden show that was cancelled a
while back called "Garden By The Yard" is now on Internet TV. COOL!

Isaac Asimov's world is becoming reality. People will no longer meet in
person, they will meet via computer in their own little virtual world while
the population drops to nothing... Cool.

Can't wait when the iPad 2 comes out with the dual cameras... Video
conferencing at finger tips as well. It will be really neat when they
perfect the computer controlled contact lenses and then we will not need
to carry such devices Well to be honest I do not care about the iPad 2
because I really have no wish to see anyone I know.

I am Borg
