Tablet weirdness

Last night I decided to flash a new kernel on my Acer iconia tablet.
When it booted up the screen was flipped!!
Everything on the screen was backwards but it only looks backwards you sill had to touch the screen in the normal position.
I made a video of it so you can see how odd it was. I just thought it was pretty funny so I figured I would share.
Its fixed now in case you were wondering.

Good ideas #1

I am going to start posting some of my ideas either for a new product or how to improve one.
This one is how to improve elevators. This might exist somewhere but I haven't seen it yet.
People love and hate elevators. There great for getting to floors without expending much energy. We also hate waiting for them and stopping at floors with no one at them, because someone presses the call button then decided to take the stairs.
Here are my two ideas to help with these problems.
There should b a cancel button. So if I go to take the elevator and decided not to for what ever reason I can hit this button and cancel the call request. So that way it doesn't stop at the floor for no reason. This would also be useful for when you it the wrong button like up instead of down or even in the elevator when you hit 1 instead of ground.

The next piece is have the elevator learn floor patterns. For example if at 3 -3:15 pm the 3rd floor calls the elevator the most have the elevator reset to that floor when idle instead of staying at whatever the last floor was. Yes this might take a little more energy but ultimately it would be worth it. 

I think this would improve everyone's experience on elevators 10 fold. Well at least it would for me. 

Aquarium/Whale Watch

For my wife's birthday I took her to the aquarium and a whale watch on Saturday.
We had gone to the aquarium months ago but they didn't have the penguin exhibit open. Which made us sad because we love penguins but this time it was open and full of penguins. We spent a lot of time watching the penguins and that is why there are a lot of pictures of them. (link below) There was a lady standing in the exhibit talking about penguins and the entire time there were penguins biting at her. It was really funny she was just standing there and they were biting at her wetsuit. It was so funny and I wish i got some pictures but i though it would of creepy to take pictures of her.

There were a lot of rude people there including parents who don't teach their children good manners. We were standing at one exhibit looking and there were a few other people there too so it was full. Normally what you should do is wait till someone moves on then you can move in close and see. Well we had a guy and his kid walk up behind the group of us, mind you he didn't wait just walked up and said excuse me in a really rude voice like we had somehow cut him off. I wanted to punch this guy in the face because he was a rude ass-hole. Also parents just don't pay attention to their kids and care what they do. We had kids cut us off and get in our way when we were trying to move. There really needs to be an application to have children because there are a lot of people who don't deserve them. The sad thing is that the parent doesn't loose out its really the children.

We also went whale watching. That was a lot of fun. There was a lot of rude people on the boat to and they are lucky I didn't throw them overboard. We did see some whales and was worth it.
