I have a few geek and technology smaller tidbits to share so I thought I would get it in really quickly before the end of the month passed by. There are a range of potential subjects in this posting and I hope that I can remember to include them all. A few possible subjects include what note to do if you want to keep you geek card (a la top ten style list), a small rant about some buzz kill blogger suggesting Gen X is looking back and it is going to be up to Gen Y, the idea of self-evident computing (and I will take it step further and say self-evident technology) and what that means – especially to technological professional gurus like myself, the apparent silliness at Google and attempts to speed up the network by compressing JPEG’s even more, why we need IPv6, and the best – Open Office is forking from Oracle with a new strain called Libre Office. As usual, I realize that the technical side of things is not for everyone – so feel free to skip this one if you need to, though I do recommend the geek card bit, as it is FUNNY!
Given that my Reds are now eight games up and mathematically almost a lock, I had to give a few comments – especially after football yesterday.

I have not put together one of these observation style blogs in a while. Had a couple of things that just screamed a short mention to me a little bit ago and so here are a few of them.
While at the grocery last night, I made the suggestion to my better half that we get cream chease in a box versus that in the container and save a little bit in the process by simply using our own container when we get home. The idea carries over to a few other grocery items.
