I dreamt that I was in a late-night office meeting... wearing a suit and smoking cigarettes. A collection of things that I'm not comfortable doing, just because. There was a line of ants on the meeting table going to the coffee and sugar. I don't remember for sure, but I wonder if I was shorn and chin-shaved, too. Heck, I don't even much like wearing long sleeves with cuffs unless it's cool outside. (The last time I had a short haircut was to manage the Cobb theater at Sawgrass, way back when. Best thing about that gig was that management got a cut of the concession stand profits... I was getting $.02 on everything sold, the big boss was getting $.05... that added up, fast. )

The office was mostly dark, and light was coming from a projector, showing some sort of powerpoint presentation... the air was hazy with that smoke, like a pool room. I didn't recognize the other people in my dream... faceless corporate folk, I figure. Silhouettes with minor backlighting. No paper anywhere... bad form for a presentation... nobody was taking any notes.


Didn't do much productive yesterday... was on call, and basically sat tight at home. Going out for a short period with Danny tomorrow, not too late, because it's a "school night" and we both have some chores to get to before Tuesday rolls around. I figure we'll spend an hour or two over conversation and a evening meal.

Hey, Kids! A Free McGruff comic book sent to your home! U.S. Residents only... but you can browse it here. Oh... the horror. (via msterling) Site Meter

Babies with Beards - your window to the world of bearded babies.

Some of the guys over at Microsoft Research have been working on a tool which makes the human eye believe its seeing a 3D image made out of plain 2D images. Apparently it works on computers, video material, magazines and plain photos.

The cool thing is, is that they have put together a demo using some of NASA's material from Mars, and a good article explaining it over at Blink.nu

It's pretty keen!

You have to love the high quality graphics of that McGruff comic book. Oh, for the love of ham!

I have to say, my favorite image is that of the little bot holding the gun. My 8 year old cousin is a better artist!

You know, I do associate the name Bobo with monkeys...
