It's not a flying car, it's a drivable aircraft
May 8, 2008

Now that I think of it, of course that's the way the flying car will be invented. You're not going to start by teaching drivers to fly... you're going to give pilots the convenience of being able to drive home. This story details the company that thinks it can make it happen.



My Life on the Run
May 8, 2008

As I was looking through this month's Runner's World magazine, reading a bit about  Bart Yasso's adventures, I noticed that he has a new book out entitled My Life on the Run. Sounds like fun!

Recounting his adventures in exotic locales like Antarctica, Africa, and Chitwan National Park in Nepal (where he was chased by an angry rhino), Yasso recommends the best exotic marathons for runners who want to grab their passports to test themselves on foreign terrain. With the wit and wisdom of a seasoned insider, he tells runners what they need to know to navigate the logistics of running in an unfamiliar country.

One of the posts in my marathon log recounts how much fun I've had while running on vacation. Sounds like this is something that lots of other runners have had fun.

Thanks Meredith! 28th birthday.



Write a Facebook application
May 7, 2008

Something that I'm curious to try is writing a Facebook application. Now, I'm sure that many a developer has thought up some great idea, written an app, and then had it go nowhere, but I'm ok with that.

My idea is along the lines of a life list or things I'd like to do. I'm sure they already exist, and 43things is a website that does this very thing, but perhaps I could add my own spin to the idea.
