Friday wind up

So today I took time to browse some of the other 23 thing blogs. WOW excellent participation and some really interesting blogs folks! Idj (my resident geek who is also great at getting the lids off jars and reaching high shelves) remarked that the rhyme gadget was pretty lame and I agreed so it is gone! (it was ugly and rhyming "orange" with "bright orange" or "frog" with "tree frog" is not too useful).  Also I had to bring the finished eggplant into work for show and tell.  Yes my desk is a little more of a disaster because I am working on a display - and must make every effort to keep little knitted vegetables from invading it.

The 23 Things bit

Almost through week 2 and although I have worked on blogs before - I am trying out different features with this one.  After the I-Google assignment last week I got interested in 'gadgets'  not the odd little things I don't know what they are for that collect in the kitchen junk drawer or the basement tool box....you know "parts" of things that didn't fit when you put it together and the growing collection of Allen Wrenches.  So trying to find and control "gadgets" that I like has been a preoccupation. Alas like that physical junk some of them are sort of what you need but not quite.

For me 23 things is a exercise in "old dog + new tricks" and the books thing - well you know old dogs are often fond of our old tricks too.
