Clock Radio

I bought a clock/radio gadget. Not a simple one, a rather fancy one ;) Its got 21 different (independent) alarm settings, a nap timer, USB power out (for an external gadget that might need USB power) and more.

Now let's see if it can manage to get me up on time everyday.

You can see the site I bought it from and all the specs on this device from here [thinkgeek.com]

Cows point North ?

Apparently, cows have built in compasses. They can sense the magnetic North.

A 100 things to try to eat

Lilian posted this 100 things to try to eat at some point in your life.

Some of them I have tasted, a lot I haven't.
This sounds like an interesting list to try to complete!

FoxClocks

I found a most useful extension to Firefox today.

Called FoxClocks, it adds a number of clocks to Firefox! Allowing you to keep track of the time across the world, with a variety of formatting and customization options.

Those of you who have seen my Windows desktop, would have seen a Yahoo Widget that I use called Timezonabulator that serves the same purpose. This is a Firefox add-in that serves the same purpose.

Get a copy of FoxClocks from Mozilla addons here : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1117?id=1117

Olympic Games Opening Ceremony quote

I liked a comment on radio today -- "The only people who probably won't
be happy about today's grand opening of the 2008 games, are probably the
folks in charge of organizing the 2012 opening ceremony"
