Rise of the Machines
The machines are beginning to revolt in our household. In the past 2 weeks, our lawnmower stopped running, our Tivo's modem stopped working, and our color printer is continually clogging up to the point that you can't print a 3-page document without fading away.
So now I need a mulching mower that records all my favorite TV shows and outputs photo prints at 1440 dpi.
C'mon...everyone's talking about convergence these days.
If Tivo made a mower, I could have it cut the front lawn for me every Thursday night at 8pm, and I wouldn't even have to be home! :D
(I've been absent from posting for a bit. Vacation and all that...)
