Honestly, I like it when that happens, then I know what I could have done better, and it's easier to see the thought process that they could have went through to get that concise of a method. I do see where you are coming from though, I've done that more than my fair share to others, but sometimes you just gotta do it.

I wish I were out on a field, recording some videos of unsuspecting cows from up in the air.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

Well, better that than recording flying cows from underneath!
But can't you think of anywhere more interesting to fly over and record than a field full of bovines?

That's just for practice and getting the camera to work. Last sunday I got my first results. The camera is too cheap, the quality of the videos is just as cheap and I do still have some vibrations, causing s fuzzy or 'swimming' effect.
Now I'm going to train flying in a fashion that produces more footage worth looking at and the poor cows will have to do as models, just like some local features of the landscape. Some time next year I intend to go south into the mountains and then try to get some videos worth posting, probably with a camera on board that costs more than 25 bucks. Still, the cheap thingie is good enough for practicing.

Particularly as practicing is where you are most likely to break it!

The camera is cheap, not the helicopter. My T-Rex 550[^] may be old and not be the latest model, but it's in perfect shape and really a pleasure to fly with. I not even once had a critical moment with it, but one day something will fail and it will crash. If you are afraid of that moment, then don't go flying.

Friday for me is like a hangover - without the preceding fun.
Apathy and cynism mixed with hopefulness and fretting. Wuith the bitter taste of the known brief duration of the week-end. You can call me Marvin.

As long it's after breakfast [or if it's during breakfast a light Champagne Cocktail is okay] it is not too soon. However having a sneaky one before the school run could be called as too soon. Tonight is pizza night, and Mummy and Daddy will be having Grown Up Ribena before during and after dinner.

That'll be the Ribena that smells of grape and gooseberry, but with a hint of pebbles in the rain and asphalt?

I'm worried it might go off, the label says Fritz Borház 2013 Szekszárdi Cuvée. Well that's the first one which may well be deaded within 20 minutes of Minimus and Maximus returning from the Scolis.

When his predecessor was in London we weren't even allowed to park in our street outside our apartment as it was too near!

Oh yeah, they're shutting down streets all over the place here... Was talking to a coworker in the elevator, and he lives a block or two from where his Popeness is staying... The cops gave him a hard time even WALKING to his apartment.
I mean, we're used to a little craziness this time of year anyway... UN General Assembly week and all that... But this is just two notches higher.
On the other hand... My office looks out over Central Park, so I might get a long-distance view of his little processional...
