Happy Easter

Happy Easter to all… this made me laugh a lot…

Tengu

At work today I was given a very cooool gift by the gang (it’s my birthday tomorrow!) of a cool little USB critter called TENGU. He essentially reacts to noise and has various expressions, likes to sing along with music and you have to wake him up when he nods off. Sounds like me! – […]
