Random Thought 6

Sunday, 1st July 2007
Personal

At what stage did life get so busy that it started feeling like a waste of time to concentrate on gardening while gardening…

    Hunter-gatherer societies typically worked 4 hours a day. Things have changed a lot, and not necessarily for the better.

    Well, I listen to podcasts while playing with my cat… He doesn’t seem to mind, so I doubt the plants do.

    You could put a laptop close by and use voice commands to type your blog entries ;)

    I listen to podcasts while either programming or when I’m sleeping*

    * Supposed to be sleeping at least lol

    Hmmm, I wonder if I’d earn more money if I marketed recordings of my voice as a sleep aid…

    And I’d always wanted to narrate a Planetarium show…
