I had a Dream!

Day two, and I have a dream, or rather I had a dream, last night, during Heroes. I should explain. Heroes for me induces narcolepsy. But it doesn’t matter, because Heroes for me is a bit like football: you hang around for 90 minutes, nothing much ever happens, and then when you’re out getting your hotdog, or having a wee, the goal gets scored, but next week, on Match of the Day, you can see the highlights - no problem! So maybe that’s my power! I’m a Sonambulist. Not sure how useful that is, hmm, but, oh well.

So during this narcolepsy I had this idea for a device. I was on a boat and the boatswain on the front of a boat when it pulled up to a dock dropped a ball into a whirlpool and the whirlpool held the ball in place which therefore held the boat in place.

There you go, Mr MBA, go out and patent that! I won’t patent it because for me, well “Intellectual Property” is an oxymoron, but, you know, there’s an idea and for FREE! No problems implementing that! And really that’s the thrust of my rant, because ideas are free, ideas are cheap, what’s really important is the ability to execute on an idea. If you have an idea for a money making scheme in FaceBook or some fantastic BPEL driven engine to abstract away programmers, then maybe you wanna think out some of the issues for implementing that before you come to me! OK? Goodnight and sweet dreams.

My First Video Blog

OK, so it’s Saturday morning, afternoon actually, and here’s the start of an experiment guaranteed not to last: Video Blogging! So the kids are downstairs trying to do their homework, being berated [encouraged!] by Lucy and I’m upstairs locked in the attic doing my accounts and expenses. [Sigh!] Sometimes I think my personal hell will look like the film Brazil with me amongst the rows of people all doing expenses and accounts for eternity. Well let’s see how long this [experiment] continues, and hopefully the next one will be more cheerful! Ok, goodbye!

I started this off in Facebook, but their video application messed the audio sync up, and of course the walled garden reduced my audience. If you like this, after seeking help you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed using a player such as Miro.
