Quick Update

OK All,

So not sure how much you all keep up on Ink! Coffee or Louisville news but we had a bit of a fire. Here is a 9 News article. There is a slide show link near the top. I usually am on crew at the station over night on Monday nights, but I took this Monday off. So while I was at home, unable to sleep, my buddies were out having a grand ole time. No one was hurt and the fire is out. 5 Agencies, 2 alarms and 35 FF's involved.

On other news. In the ongoing internet browser wars Google has thrown their hat into the ring. Enter Google Chrome. I'm gonna set it up at the house, along with Internet explorer, Fire Fox (current personal favorite) and Safari (not great on the Windows platform) to see what I think of it. The link above will take you to the download site. Check it out for yourselves.

Another thing worth looking into, as it could be as big of a change as the invention of the Mountain Bike for cycling. New Shimano Di2. It's fully electronic shifting for bikes. Pretty Whiz-Bang(read expensive)! As we begin to put batteries in our toothbrushes and more and more things become electro-mechanical this is probably the direction cycling is headed. You heard it here first folks!
