An Amazing interview with the world's oldest man. He's lived through the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries, and he can still remember the early days of the automobile, he remembers the stock market crash of 1929; he remembers the inventions of radio and television as some of the most significant, although he also notes the importance of the computer — as it appeared in the 1960s, when it changed the face of business.
Breuning says that the most memorable event he experienced was Halley’s Comet: “All the people in the towns stayed up to see that ball of fire … that was quite a sight, I’ll tell you.†He recommends eating well, “keep[ing] that mind and that body busy doing things,†and getting as much education as you can. But his most resounding advice may be his simplest: “Be good to everybody. Be kind to everybody. People should be helping other people. The more you do for other people, the better you’re going to help yourself.â€ÂÂ

(A young woman, about 20 years old, comes up to the counter holding a copy of The Bible.)
Me: “Hi, did you find everything you needed today?â€Â
Customer: “Yeah, hey, can you tell me what this is about?â€Â
Me: “The Bible?â€Â
Customer: “Yeah, what’s it about?â€Â
Me: “The Bible has two parts, the Old Testament which is scriptures and the New Testament, which contains the story of Jesus’ life and works as told through the gospels, written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.â€Â
Customer: “Huh. Is it any good?â€Â
Me: “It’s pretty popular.â€Â
Customer: “Nah, I’ll just get this one instead.†*puts a copy of Twilight on the counter*
Cool on both counts. Any idea when your comic's gonna be in the brick n' mortars?
I probably won't even be done with it for another year or so. And the last comic I worked on, I drew four issues that never came out. So who the hell knows.
It's running Android. It'll never actually do even half of that.
Seems to me that all of the stuff this has that Android doesn't already have is hardware + drivers to interface with it. Well, except for the part where it runs Windows 7 on the projectors. Is the technology for the IR camera array there yet?
