Spring Forward – Fall Back

Shyshill — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 20:50:19 +0000

Daylight Savings will be coming to an end soon, I always dread the time changes that we are forced to par take in twice a year. There are so many things that are a hassle when it comes to changing all of our time pieces and I know that I’m not the only one that cringes when we are forced to comply with a law that was put into place so very long ago. I always feel sorry for the folks that are working in stores that carry a large amount of clocks and watches, they must spend hours each time we need to either spring forward or fall back, that must really suck.

Come The End of The Month

I have been waiting for almost two years for my contract to be up with Verizon, my current cell phone provider. I haven’t been happy with them since signing on the dotted line in 2008 and have been counting down the months since then. I wish they didn’t have such power over us all and that more companies didn’t require a contract or at least made it easier to get out of one if necessary.

Maybe one day in future the cell phone industry will be more reasonably priced and more customer friendly, until that time we need to do our researching on items and services like the cell phone and make better educated choices.

Just saw a moving building

Yea I am not joking I just saw a building that moves. Seems that over in teh middle east they are building this huge sky scraper that moves. ANd then they have one planned for Russia or Europe next I am not quite sure. This is no doubt going to catch on all over America and I can see a day when several buildings in every downtown in America will move and have features like this building does.

I am not sure how much this whole thing is going to cost but I can only imagine it is going to be a pretty penny whatever it costs to construct. Found out about all this by reading a blog post called Shape Shifting Skysrapers from this really neat blog called unmanned system, which if you like to read about technology and science than you will love reading this blog.
