The True Cost of Christmas
mentalflossr: Each year PNC Wealth Management calculates the total cost of all 364 items mentioned/repeated in “The Twelve Days of Christmas.” This year it topped $100,000 for the first time. This is more or less useless data (what do I really care about the cost of maids-a-milking anyway except that I’d say, for the work they do, they’re kind of under paid) but it’s so...

On my mind today...
We’re thirteen, almost fourteen, And so much in love We want the years to pass— Clouds roll at super speed, rains fall, Flowers unfold and die at the snap Of our fingers. I want to stuff sand Through a fat hourglass, And rip the pages from the calendar. Let me blow candles from my cake. Let my puppy stretch to full size. When we turn eighteen, Time will become a canoe on a still lake. —Gary...

One incredible camera
Lytro released their light field camera today. I saw the demo several months ago. And its incredible what you can do with it.  Check out the camera (which I totally did not expect to look like this) here: https://www.lytro.com/camera And remember to go to the picture gallery to test out how it works yourself.

Maybe its because I’m less connected today than I used to be, or maybe its cause I’m getting lazier. In either case, I hadn’t heard much about Chuck Palahniuk’s new book “Damned” until I heard him in an interview on All Things Considered this weekend: http://www.npr.org/2011/10/16/141272918/the-breakfast-club-meets-hell-in-damned and then read this interview...

Say, what’s all this then? Why am I here? Checket.com officially moved to Tumblr today. Posterous may have a trick or two left up it’s sleeve but I got tired of waiting. So, Tumblr it is. To be clear, I am no hipster. I’m just looking for a more reliable and relatively enjoyable place to post a pic or two and a short blog post now and then. From now on, checket.com redirects...
