I keep getting out of work after dark. It is not fun. At the latest, I should be catching the sunset. So now, I am using Periscope to catch the rising or setting sun. Like this person above who was Periscoping while driving in Russia. Thanks for sharing your awesome sun event with the world! The most recent Periscope feature adds a live, moving curve that defines the dark part of the world versus the light part of the world on the map view. If only I could get out of work early enough to see the light side of things…

Happy Valentine’s Day
USA Rugby
In one of the best transformations ever, Dell Diamond changed from a baseball field to a rugby pitch. USA Rugby showed up and outdueled the team from Canada in a hard-fought match in perfect weather conditions in Central Texas. Let’s hope they do this sort of thing more often, as rugby is a most interesting and enjoyable sport to watch live.
FD’s Grillhouse
Fish Daddy’s has gone a little bit upscale. It is now FD’s Grillhouse. The food was wonderful tonight and it was a good value. I had the fried calamari, grilled snapper, baked potato, steamed broccoli, and iced tea. The inside remodel has made for a nicer restaurant, and for some reason the blue lamps caught my eye as they quietly hung from the ceiling.
The Big Short
This film is an oddly brilliant storytelling about a few groups of professional investors who predicted the fall of the financial packages that were wrapped around a very risky mortgage market. It provides some very good insights into the banking industry and the pain that was felt by the world as markets tumbled.
Hutto Co-Op Market Nights
This may be the world’s smallest Market, but the bonus is a nice sunset behind the neighboring grain silos. I found a small Valentine’s cookie to purchase, took some photos, wandered around, and had dinner in downtown Hutto to finish off the evening.
Wiwek and Gregor Salto- Trouble
This one has some nice rhythm in case you find yourself celebrating Mardi Gras or Carnival or something.
Log Out of Twitter
Before you do anything, make sure you know the account name and password for your Twitter account so you can successfully log back in. If you are totally sure that you’ve got this, then log out of Twitter on the web browser of your choice. What you will discover is something that might be more entertaining than your usual Twitter feed. The Twitter people have recently made this happen. You will get a view of the newest and most popular tweets. You can also search for key words or hash tags. For example, if you are interested in art, just type it in and search. More fun than when you were logged in as yourself? Probably so – but you can only have so much fun in one day, so log back into Twitter and check out your normal feed before bedtime. 🙂
