Argh, I hate crashes on my route!

Many weeks I am apathetic about work, but every so often the trip by itself is reason enough to force me to move far away. Too many lousy sheeple and barely any attention to the roadway. To top it off, I knocked over the stupid coffee coming in to the parking lot... So this is life.
My conversation with Ted made me think

There was this one house on the discovery channel which seriously made me want to copy it – It was crazy automatic sprinklers and performed a seriously outstanding job making it all work. Every sprinkler was integrated and get this- the car starters as well as the gazebo roof were controlled.
I always liked X10 for years but I’d never seen a dream house like this, it was inspiring and I’m still in shock.
We talk about letting the superhome that we live in (slight exageration) do fancy tasks like running a bath by just asking the house to or displaying the news in the bathroom mirror. Some of these things are still several years in terms of general accessibility (regardless of this some people are doing it) but some more pragmatic goals for instance lighting for parties or relaxing should be locally available and inexpensive today. When I get home I will sway my other half- after which she can hold responsible the site that helped me learn about this stuff: Zwave vs Insteon
