they just threw up scaffolding in the building next door which has shrouded my kitchen in a pall for the unforeseeable future. my only solace is knowing my topless morning perambulations will afford them far less than the cheapest of thrills unless hairy and pauchy is their idea of an adonis.

if you had asked me if i knew anyone that would deliver a ted talk (even one aimed at youths) i would have been hard pressed to name anyone. not that the world doesnt want to hear what all of you have to say. but it has happened or i can only assume it has as it is in spanish and "tedtalk" may mean something else entirely in that language. maybe they were talking about world cup highlights, ya know, the important stuff. this is my friend from puerto rico, at least ill claim she is my friend, though i havent spoken to her in a number of years, as i still am on the mailing list for her business.

i just realized that it is an almost certainty that i was out last night with a pair of mismatched black adidas sneakers, one with black soles and one white. the germans must have thought i was representing their team. i was not.

Vessyl is the Yves Béhar designed smart cup that knows exactly what you're drinking. It connects to your iPhone over bluetooth, identifies drinks, nutritional content, along with how much of what you drink. 

Let's cut to the chase: while I only had an hour with a Vessyl prototype, I tried nearly a dozen beverages in it -- and it successfully identified all of them. Within 10 seconds, the device, which currently resembles more of a Thermos than a finished product, recognized Crush orange soda, Vitamin Water XXX, Tropicana orange juice, Gatorade Cool Blue, plain-old water, and a few other beverages, all by name. Yes, this cup knows the difference between Gatorade Cool Blue and Glacier Freeze.
