At my day job, they have us taking a course called Digital fitness – to bring us up to speed on the coming technology, and hoping we’ll think of ways to use it. The article I just read mentioned a sofa that gathers data about people sitting on it. You visit someone’s house, and you … Continue reading

Fractured Fragment Friday: “Out of Place” (and a coupon!)
“Out of Place” started with an inside joke – the opening “Bunnies!” line is something I shout (but softly) every time I see one in our North Dallas neighborhood.

Meandering Monday about Whether I’m Really That Old
**Drat! I thought I set this post up last night for Monday morning, but instead I set it for Tuesday. Correcting now – sorry it’s late (Guess I AM that old…) Halloween is a big deal to us. A week into October we do up the house with lights on the roof and down the … Continue reading
