Wasting time

Yes it is cold today. It was cold and wet yesterday. Wonderful conditions to be out and about. The thing is that yesterday I took my car in for a service. It needed some parts which had to come down overnight from Hamilton. So I took it back in today. What that means is a big chunk of time to kill in central Wellington. There is just so much time that even I can spend at bookstores. Well, OK that limit is determined by my feet getting too sore to be able to spend any more time looking at the shelf contents. So what I need is something to do where I can sit in a warm environment and be entertained. Yes I went to the cinema. I went to the new Fantastic Four effort as well as Zodiac - a choice dictated by session times as much as perceived quality.

More power Scotty

And now for something very very silly. Remember those cheap knockoffs of cheap tacky reading lights I was complaining about the other day. Well I found the real thing. To me they just look like they should be rocket nacelles for a spacecraft. To illustrate my point, I thought I'd soup up one of my remote controls.
