Random web findings

What’s good at your neck of the woods?
It’s all gravy where I’m sitting right now. Finished with all of the work and just lounging. It would seem that I need to turn on the TV soon for some Soccer. Who’s it going to be, Germany or Spain? My money’s on Germany but we’ll see. Much love to Spain as well.
Talking about the World Cup, it would seem that some seriously take the football fever on another level supporting their favorite. Probably the funniest thing I saw on the web today has to be a promise in form of this tweet from certain “actress” named Bobbi Eden. The number of followers was 5 k something at that point and in 24 hours it has risen to 36 000 and counting. Talking about viral effect. Hilarious, if you ask me.
We stopped by at our crib today just to check the mail and the damage. The kitchen was looking OK, but our bathroom is just a pile of rubble and bricks right now. It’s all good, we only need to stay away for about 3 months. Still maintaining, and I can actually laugh about the whole thing and refugee life. Life’s like jazz, you need to improvise and pave the way towards the light at the end of the tunnel. This brings me to my second finding, which is an awesome video and song by Keith Elam aka Guru. Just check it out, it’s a Jazz Thing.

Last but definitely not least we have self lacing sneakers.

While it’s a machine that laces the sneakers and not the shoes per se, it’s still an idea that could actually save a lot of bending and manual lacing. At the moment Blake Bevin’s Back to the Future II inspired self lacing Nike’s still have a somewhat bulky machine on the back, but hey you need to start with something. The shoes are colorful and fresh, and so is the idea. Awesome.
I think that’s the top three. I’m off for few hours of chilling and then some well earned shuteye. Be easy everyone, I’m out, peace…

What would happen to The Lacer if it was raining.

…indeed! I guess the dude is not running around with the sneakers all too much just yet…

Yet. It’s kinda like having a small mechanical butler. One who isn’t well trained.
