At $2.50 a dozen, Tyler roses are my junk food alternative.
Want a nasty, greasy, too sweet something?
Buy roses instead! ;p
Hooray for a happy junk food alternative!

Oh yeah, new haircolor!
Cheers for never looking the same 2 months in a row! ;)
Bathtime for the Houndlies!
Jack and Ollie have thoroughly enjoyed being country dogs...but they have started to look (and smell) like country dogs.
Bath time for them...err...bath for Ollie...Jack is more of a shower guy.
Now the apartment smells like wet dog with a shot of cleanliness!
To celebrate, we (the hounds and I) are having a RoboCop marathon. Netflix it to join us in spirit!

I Have Joined The iPad 2 Portable Nerd Club! ;)
My father is a wonderful man. It's true.
My laptop has slowly transformed itself into a desktop. It no longer holds charge, and needs to be plugged in to function. (It's battery has been changed once, and it lasted less than a year before giving up the ghost.)
When I moved to Tyler, a week ago, I did a swan dive back into consulting. My iPhone 4 became an extension of myself this past week as I went from presentation to meeting to training session.
After a few days of this, my iPhone began to come to it's limits as a presentation tool, and my thoughts drifted towards the iPad/laptop dilemma.
My Dad was about 3 steps ahead of me, and when I came home on Thursday, there was a surprise waiting on the counter.
His name is Martin, and he is excellent!
Thank you Dad, you're really wonderful!

Mercedes-Benz BIOME Concept Car - Want!
Mercedes Biome a strange concept car that is designed to be grown from seeds. The designers envision that lab-grown car being made from a non-existent material named BioFibre, a material that is lighter than plastic and stronger than steel.
If used in a car, the car would weigh around 875.5 pounds and would also be entirely biodegradable.
Since BioFibre can be grown in a lab, Mercedes has been toying with the idea of growing its very own car based on the idea of symbiosis. Symbiosis in nature represents seamless efficiency between key players.
The idea is that the vehicle would collect energy from the sun and store it within the bonds of a fuel alternative, the only by-product of which is oxygen, appropriately nicknamed BioNectar4534.
The car would work with nature, and Mercedes has already developed technology to retrofit trees with receptors, which would allow us to harvest their excess solar energy into BN4534.
This initiative is suppose to be incentive to plant more trees and collect more energy to create a self sustaining example of symbiosis.
Apply those concepts to a car and the BIOME would not hurt the environment or be wasteful in any way, kind of like a “partnership with nature.”
“The interior of the BIOME grows from the DNA in the Mercedes star on the front of the vehicle, while the exterior grows from the star on the rear,” Mercedes-Benz explained.
But with the strong movement towards greener technology, perhaps the BIOME does stand a chance in the competitive automotive industry.
