Harry Potter and the Three Hundred Mile Day Trip

Museum of Science
Boston, MA


I spent the day with my family as we made the trek to Boston to see the Harry Potter exhibit at the Museum of Science.

While I do not like to books and loathe the films, it was a well done exhibit. There are wonderful pieces from the film and it is well put together, even for a casual non-fan.


Just one question...

Why does a museum of "Science" need a Star Wars space ship hanging from the ceiling?


Boston, on the other hand, looked like an icy apocalypse, which may be an improvement. Maybe they could have used this city instead of Pittsburgh for "The Road".

And now for something completely different...

It seems that I am having another Bell's Palsy spell.



Yay me!

Wish me an easy recovery.

Really Feeling This

Happy Valentine's Day!

Dinner and Breakfast

I am trying to cook more.

For both cash and health reasons.




Dinner was curried vegetables with somen noodles.




Breakfast was poached eggs over toast.

I am fat AND happy.

What's the Buzz?

I love Google. They consistently provide wonderful free services and excellent low cost solutions.

I am excited about Buzz too. (Which seems to be a better combination of Twitter and Facebook without the annoyances of either but with some limitations.)

That being said, and I know they are all about the "cloud", why can't the build integrated iPhone apps?

I understand the limitations that Apple puts upon them, but that is restricted to Google Voice.

I want everything that Google offers to be available as an app, not just Maps, Earth, and Search.

Is that too much to ask?
