Summer lingers in Seattle – aliens, too

posted by brad wong on 2010.08.16, under information

Life continues to be a bit on the go for me – but in a way, that’s good.

One thing I appreciate about going almost anywhere is seeing what you spot on the way to a destination.

Photographer Grant Haller enjoyed that while he worked in daily journalism. I was reminded of that idea when my wife and I took our son, earlier this month, to the Blue Angels show over Lake Washington in the Seattle area.

Saturday’s heat in the Seattle area already blasted to the top of the record charts.

It’s a shrap contrast to last weekend, when say, overcast skies prompted the Blue Angels to fly a lower-than-usual show over Lake Union for Seafair, the annual summer festival.

I hope everyone is enjoying a great summer. As I’ve noted, I’m still around – freelance work is taking up my time this month.

Which, as we know, is a good thing.

As we know, the Chinese have come up with a robot that can make food in a wok – and IBM has its supercomputer that will challenge humans in Jeopardy!

You’ve seen the two flying cars – Aerocar and the Transition - I’ve written about in earlier posts. By the way, if you end up buying a Transition, please let me know.

Or just tell the world via the Web or a Tweet.

And so, in this light, I’ve thought about stretching the day out so there will be more hours than just 24. That way, I can have some extra time to blog at TofuWatch.com.
