When it gets hot smart people go to the library.
Huh?
Well, you might say “movie theaters or malls or swimming pools” but those are always crowded.
Today is a scorcher in Seattle. Welcome to global warming. Or local warming. Either way it’s freaking hot!
After our breakfast we needed to meet up with the people buying our house and Chandu recommended the Redmond Library cause it just was too hot to have a conversation anywhere else. What a wonderful place! Yes, they even have a great place where you can talk. It was pretty much empty. And VERY cool. Even had a drink machine and an eating area where we talked about house sale stuff while Patrick played on his Portable Sony Playstation. Free wifi too.
One thing we had fun watching there was a new plasma screen that was displaying artwork from museums around the world. I wrote down the service that was feeding the screen: GalleryPlayer. Georgeous images. You hook a computer up to your HDTV screen (mine can display 1280×1024 images, newer screens will be able to display higher res than that) and you buy images you want to play on it. Great eye candy for impressing people who come for parties and such.
Anyway, hope you’re keeping cool. I’m sure not.
