A writer of online stories of SF, Magic and Adventure. Say it with me SteamPunk Dwarves oh yeah 40 yrs with Crohns. Got #Crohns issues lets talk
1am road trippin in the early hours. Be well Good Night soft dreams See you in a week. I'm off the grid at a writing retreat in Door County
Dear Facebook, My wife thinks the idea of "Christian Mingle" is just fine OTOH she is less than amused to see it flanking my profile... #targetedadalgorithimcoulduseadjusting
Okay so this New York Photographer took pictures "peeping" into his neighbors apartments. Expectations of privacy?!? What if he used Google Glass instead of high end DSLR? What if he used a Drone flying next to building? #expectationsofprivacy And $7,500 a print?!? #wowjustwow
That's kind of weird and creepy. Since I have no link, therefore no context: Did he get permission from the neighbors? How much of their apartments are visible? Are they visible? - Anika
sorry Link here: "The Neighbors don’t know they are being photographed http://www.metafilter.com/128172... - WarLord
he called their windows a ..transparent scrim on a stage.... - WarLord
Yeah, that's really creepy. I can see into my neighbor's homes, but I don't take pictures of them inside there. Hell, even when I surreptitiously take photos of them *outside* their homes, I still don't share them. When you're in your own home regardless of how open the windows/blinds are there's a presumed privacy. How does what he do, differ from a stalker? I mean, when you consider that FISA oversteps Constitutional bounds, how can this be completely legit? - Anika
It's obnoxious and probably illegal and I love #14. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
I like Boxer in #15, it's like he knows the photog is there. But yeah this is Drones, Google Glass and window peeper all rolled into one... #expectationsofprivacy - WarLord
Gas Prices in Minnesota spiked to $4.49/Gal this afternoon. They were 4.19 yesterday. That's up a full dollar in a couple weeks. #wowjustwow
Flying Cars, this from January 1937. Next time some one tells you about the "next big thing' like Driverless Cars remind them that history is not linear nor predictable... #iwantmyflyingcar #jetsons

2am Good Night soft dreams
2am Did I mention that the heat wave broke and it's raining right now? Yeah, still wackiness in weather land aka Minnesota
Gas in Minnesota is $4.28/Gal for regular unleaded the day before we drive to Door County. Most expensive gasoline in the nation... #anotherhonoridjustassoonnotearn #coincidence
And no I'm not convinced that some bullshit refinery in Illinois shut down caused this price spike.. #gouging - WarLord
3 am Good Night soft dreams
Saturday we're driving to Ellison Bay in Door County, WI We're spending teh week at The Clearing Folk School in writing class #amwriting

I'm not left behind kids I'm standing here enjoying that sunset....
In the not too distant, you will measure friendship even power by peoples willingness to unplug and meet you face to face... #gibsonprobablysaiditbetter
#tech #leftbehind When I was young, my father told me his philosophy of life: "If you can fix it with money, it is NOT a problem." It was late in my life before I really understood what he meant. I think of this when we discuss first world tech like GLASS. I'm not left behind kids I'm standing here enjoying that sunset....
#minnesota Remember about a week ago when I posted pics of snow in my yard and yesterday pics of Lake Milacs ice sheet destroying cabins? At 830 this evening it's 86 degrees... Yesterday frostbite, today heatstroke! My flowers are deeply confused as am I. #weather
Okay lets imagine Vivid Entertainment and several pairs of Google Glass. Got it? A porn film totally shot POV with Glass... #notentirelywhatgooglehadinmindbutibetithappens #soon
Actually, while that would be an interesting concept , it would be terrible porn. The "Gonzo" style of porn, while POV, often involves the movement of the camera to the side profile. 5 mins of head bobbing is lame - Johnny from iPhone
yeah but I'm thinking if "all" the participants are wearing Glass the POV moves and cuts would actually be umm interesting - WarLord
5 mins of a close-up public region or shaved todge moving so fast and jittery that it invokes motion sickness? Yeah, no. - Johnny from iPhone
Again, it will happen, but I question the appeal and success of Glass shot porn given the popular shooting styles. I think it will have more effect on the watching of porn rather than the production of it - Johnny from iPhone

Good Night soft dreams #spoonie
Here in Wacky Weather Land aka Minnesota it is 46 and i'm pondering if my new plants have to come indoors before the cold hours of dawn. On Tuesday they are forecasting a 90 degree day. So we will switch from heating to AC in less than 48 hours! I did mention the weather was wacky? Thought so... #globalclimatechangeinmicorcosm
Oh yeah did i mention the Wild Fire Watch? Yep, low humidity, high winds, and high temps mean a possibility of out of control fire... #mommynatureappeardstobereallyangryreallyreallyangry - WarLord

Used to ride my bike thru that area on my commute to Minneapolis. A bit of respite before heading into the stressful fray of urban bicycle-auto 'coexistence'. - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ from Android
The drive from Centerville on 35E to 35W is pleasant nature retreat as you go along lakes and wetlands I usually find an excuse to use this route in preference to "quicker'" ways home ;) - WarLord
It is 41 degrees in Minnesota on the way to 36 by morning, Tuesday they are forecasting 86... Why YES the weather IS odd in Minnesota
Tell me about it! The buds on my trees and shrubs are totally confused. - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ from Android
Not so BTW The Google Doodle is made of win today
Happy Mothers Day
