The immature child in me giggles at this months cover of Wired. The parent/adult in me is real mature about it. I probably look like a fool, alternating between snickering and a serious face.

Mind dump: I just created a list of websites, home projects, ideas, and other projects that I have in mind to work on. There are over 50 items on this list. Jeez.
