[quote=zk]Remote control airplanes.

I started in earnest early this year, and now a bunch of guys at work are getting into it. The fun is contagious. The technology of electrics (as opposed to gas) has come a long way, making it cheaper, less time-consuming (to build planes), and more fun. It’s really quite fun.[/quote]

I saw this, and was pretty excited about it…

Too bad it only works with iphone and ipad for now. (I am totally anti-apple right now :))

BUT… I got the the Android Open Accessory Development Kit with the Arduino hardware…So…looks like I’ll be tinkering a bit for the next couple of months…

Currently:
– attempting to learn Italian.
– trying to figure out how to raise my kids to not be juvenile delinquents and actually have them contribute to society.
– playing angry birds.

That last one is just since Thursday night – I got my xoom, finally… And I guess I spent too much time on it – because I’m on the 3rd unlocked level. LOL. (Note – I did NOT go back and try to get 3 *’s for all the games – just getting past the level was good enough for me.)

Now that I have my xoom – I’m going to take up writing android apps.

Oh – and my son’s FLL team is starting up again – so I’ll be spending a lot of time herding 10 year olds as they learn how to program the NXT.

Ha ha….You know that you can play angry birds now on the chrome browser 🙂

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/aknpkdffaafgjchaibgeefbgmgeghloj

Fortunately for you, you don’t have a toddler that likes

Farm Story, Bakery Story, and Restaurant Story…..I figured out those where the games that she accidentally purchased 1000 gems for $100 real U.S. dollars. Now I have apps on both the iPad and the Galaxy Tab so I don’t need to feel so guily about fighting with a 5 year old on playing angry birds versus Farm/Bakery/Restaurant story…
