I was looking for something like this today at work.
No Helmets for Motorcycle Riders in Michigan
I called State Farm to ask what were the implications with the change in motorcycle helmet law in Michigan. I was told that riders who opt to not wear helmets are required to carry a $20,000 medical insurance. But here’s the catch…
If you ride without a helmet and get into an accident and be injured “catastrophically” then the tax payer pays your the deficit of medical...
Back from watching Avengers with Nohemi.
Game of Thrones
I was sick today and stayed in bed most of the day. I found Game of Thrones in On Demand on my cable box. It’s too bad that it is only in season two so I will probably be caught up by the weekend. It’s is both cool and the suck when a story is complicated. It is hard to garner a bigger a new audience on the fly because they need to start from the beginning to understand the...

Credit Ratings
We need a governing body that oversees the schemes that come out of the likes of S&P and Moody’s and Fitch. If we let the market fix itself, as a U.S. conservative would say then we are running the risk of fucking up the global economy. There is something very fishy with these credit rating companies.

My HTPC Keyboard/Mouse Choice →
I was looking for a keyboard with possibly a trackball built in but instead I found this awesome solution. It has a 30 meter range, works with Windows, Mac, and Linux. Super small, built in trackpad and is rechargeable.
I feel down.

Slow
I am a slow reader. It takes me a while to read something and thoroughly understand. More than a slow reader my comprehension or being to connect the dots in my head is on the not so fast side of things. Maybe I have always been like that or maybe I am getting old or maybe a combination of both and neglecting to feed my brain with new ideas. Regardless the reason, I am slow.
Fun
I don’t know when things stopped being fun. I don’t think I have been enjoying myself, or having fun, as of late, with everything. I must find a way to adapt and start having fun again, regardless of how the situation is. It’s a hard thing to do… adapt that is, but it is something that one must do to survive. So note to self: start having fun again.

Vanity Search
Every once in a while, I Google myself and get weird results. I tried Google-ing “Hywell Martinez Wikipedia” and I actually showed up! I posted a picture of the Thyssen museum in Madrid on Flickr a while back. I think the person who posted it asked for my permission first and I approved. What is embarrassing is that I also uploaded a picture of Spanish alpine ski racer that I found...

Fall Flowers
Nohemi and I went to the Farmers Market this morning. The weather has been bizarre as usual. In the afternoon, we hit Wenke’s for some fall flowers. Nohemi has accumulated a lot of points at Wenke’s from spring so I was able to get four biodegradable pots of $1.13.
