Entertainment for the long work week. I hear from an 80 something-year-old client every year or thereabouts when he hears of some new way to get rid of his dish network and get all of his channels by some form of magic. He asked me about a new one that is being advertised everywhere he says. Uses your house wiring for an antenna. Holy Toledo, are people gullible.

At least they aren't ripping them off for $hundreds, lol (although I didn't check P&H cost!)!

Working on a theater last week and next. Trying to convince owner to paint the ceiling a darker color (for the love of video - anything that's not white!).

Someone needs to build smart-tiles that we can use to build theater (any any room) ceilings with. You can have it be white and it gets electronically switched to black via the theater startup macro. Think switchable privacy glass

Maybe the fiber optic start ceiling guys can make this happen.

Maybe this can be something that can make use of an automatic pool cover to mask the white ceiling. Already invented but repurposed for something different.

Today I officially paid off the beach house.

The mortgage "handler" the credit union used, screwed up and left a small balance when I paid it off last month. This wouldn't have been a big deal, except the $150.00 they left on the loan turned into $370.00 in interest and fees.

I raised a bit of hell, and the credit union decided to eat the mistake.

I went out and bought a $150.00 bottle of wine.... :-)

I'm guessing its hidden in a control room or closet.

Reasons i can think of off the top of my head...

1. Space.
2. Client can manually control lights if control system fails.

What a shame it is difficult to conduct mass engine racing competitions in view of the current situation in the world. Even in my dreams I see the road and feel the speed, I dream of participating. All it has to do is waste your spare time with homework, and then some of them are not really able to spend time. For written works, this is particularly true. Only skilled writing facilities can be funded. I order write my research paper [Link: wiseessays.com] but the results of these guys are also negative. And I have to write a research paper in future, maybe I have to look for other experts.
