Good morning,
Whitewater’s forecast calls for a mix of freezing rain and snow today, with a high temperature of twenty-nine degrees.
On this Presidents’ Day, Wired has a story entitled, Tech Presidents Day: George, Tom and Abe. Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln each made contributions in technology or science:
Wired.com marks Presidents Day weekend with brief vignettes of three of our techiest presidents: Washington steered national policy toward an embrace of science, Jefferson made a significant contribution to paleontology, and Lincoln devised and patented a gimmick for lifting stranded boats.
For those looking for something unusual (truly unusual) to start the week, here’s a clip from French director Quentin Dupieux odd film, entitled Rubber, about a spare tire that roams the desert killing all who get in its way. The clip is from the full-length film. Really.
Enjoy.
