Remote and Serious

Gadget: A $250 box called a Slingbox lets you do to location what a VCR does with time. This hooks up to your cable box and an Ethernet connection. Then, using their software on a remote computer, you can control the cable box via IR remote and watch whatever is on. I think it sounds cool; there are mixed reactions on Boardwatch.

The jury trial that I’m serving on starts tomorrow. Should be fun…

B-day celebration – a first

Last night, celebration for AJ and his new Iron Chef boy C.T. Apparently, being groomed for the next big thing SE Asia’s ever seen :). Mother, kid and AJ are doing well and good spirits. (I hear he even took a swing at AJ, is that an omen?)

The gang headed over to Sergio Valente’s on Anhe Road Sec 1 and had cigars (Partagas Series D), wine (Californian, Woodbridge, Heitz Cellars, Clos do Val) and whisky (15 yr Highland). It was only the guys night. It’s an auspicious beginning for the next great leader since Ghengis Khan. Glad to have been there. Good vibes.

Meanwhile, Taiwan summer is upon us.
