It seems that the only people who have heard of Euchre grew up or went to school near the Great Lakes. When I lived in New York my friends and I played it all the time... especially in the winter time. :P

One of my friends from Israel brought me a bag of Bamba from the Google office in Haifa.

So it's official, my cold is actually a sinus infection. :(
I caught it almost a month ago on my flight to New York, but sticking to my no pills unless you absolutely need them policy I avoided going to doctor until this week.

Air | Space | Cyberspace
To see and hear advertisements for military services that includes Space and Cyberspace as sub-branches of the service is completely surreal. It feels like a mock sci-fi ad out of some cheesy TV show, but that's exactly what the US Air Force is doing with their latest ad campaign.
