    Hi All, Just wanted to post a followup. We had a GREAT time at the award ceremony. It was a ton of fun, definitely had a Hollywood experience full of celebrity sightings and other fun and entertaining adventures. Best part, we WON the grand prize in the contest, which was a brand new flat...

    Hi All, I'll be out of town this week first on business then attending the award ceremony I mentioned earlier. It should be exciting. I'll come report back in about a week! Rumor is they will have invited some celebrities to the event as well.. I'm curious who that might be ;)

    Why must everyone drive like zombies?

    Well, the answer to your specific question of course, is that once the guy in front is going a certain speed, everyone behind him is forced to go that same speed. :D

    Heh - so was I wrong to superglue my son's Lego Star Wars B-Wing Fighter together?

    YES, it was wrong. Legos are meant to be taken apart!

    Thanks ;) The secret to being in the top 8, is to apply for a contest that doesn't have too many other submissions :) They had 16 submissions so our odds were 50-50 to be a finalist. We didn't exactly do post-production voice-over, but by asking you probably noticed the audio was a little...

    Cool, thanks for letting me know. I admit it was tough to try to find a cool topic related to calculators. Appreciate the feedback! I've gotten a spread of responses from 'it was the BEST to it was the WORST'. Any suggestions to make it better?

    That's awesome! I'll need to get you to send over your tetris file if you still have it ;) RPN is a dream come true, it's true. And converting back, as you note.... simply awful. It's like going back to a Kia once you drive a Mercedes. Wouldn't we WANT the calculators to be doing all the...

    Definitely, I know exactly what ya mean. When I was about 7 I used my dad's HP calculator to write out the entire multiplication tables up to 100x12 and gave it to my teacher. I didn't even get extra credit for it! I used HP calculators all the way through 3 college degrees, and am especially...
