Suddenly a class about circuits gets funny when the teacher shares some of the funny student responses from the teacherĀ  evaluations he does at the end of every year.

ROAD LESS TRAVELED

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth

 

Then took the other as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same

 

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet, knowing how way leads onto way
I doubted if I should ever come back

 

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood
And I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference

The NEW iPhone is FUCKING AWESOME!!!

In Apple, innovation, iphone on January 9, 2007 at 11:35 pm

There truly are times when great innovation is unveiled and usually by leaps and bounds. The iPhone is no exception. It finally brings true usablity with great technology into the 21st century. I am counting the days until June 2007. The multi touch technology is light years ahead of anybody else in this field. Of course Apple Computer Inc. Apple Inc. is no stranger to the handheld devices, the the Newton for instance, it was too ahead of it’s time and was the precusor to Palm. It’s the beginning of what looks to be an explosive year for Apple and not a moment too soon if you ask me.

The features… the style… the technology… the innovation… the iPhone… ground has been broke, yet again.

Discovery Channel : History of the iPod

In Apple, Discovery Channel, Documentary, Music, Steve Jobs, ipod on January 4, 2007 at 10:17 pm

Anybody that knows me, knows that I am an Apple freak … yes yes one of those mac addicts you hear of. Always seem to be on the defensive around the “PC” people, but hey Apple brought you the freakin iPod and at the same time came back from the brink of extinction as a computer company. This is a great documentary on the iPod and it’s impact…kicking off from when Steve Jobs came back to the company he founded and then was fired from in 1985 , around 1996. The prodigal son returns.

That’s one bitter son of a bitch!

In Bitter, Expression, James Bittancourt, Music on January 1, 2007 at 8:35 pm

Decided to post my first YouTube video upload. The music was done by James Bittancourt and the song was titled : Tweakers. He can be found inĀ  a couple spots on MySpace and on his own site. This is just a visual interpretation of the his music. It’s a cerebral adventure into a man’s mind … as he slowly but surely loses it and it’s what I thought of when I heard the song
