0:00.0	Welcome my friends to Grumpy Old Geeks, a weekly conversation where two internet
0:12.0	decks talk about technology, the internet, where it's headed, where we wish it was headed.
0:16.6	I'm Jason. And I'm Brian. You can find us on the web at Grumpy Old Geeks.com.
0:33.5	Welcome back from Hawaii, Brian. How was it? I'm a hollow. It was awesome. I'm sitting here in
0:38.8	shorts and a tank top and my pukka shells on because I'm trying to hold on to the bliss that I just had?
0:44.4	You're very tan, I must say. And I am very tan. It was an amazing trip. You know, we talked a lot about
0:50.8	taking breaks and it's been, well, it's been a good two years. I'm not that I haven't traveled,
0:55.6	but my travel's been either work related or family. This is the first time in about two years.
1:00.6	I took something that was just for me. And it was awesome. That's good. That's good. How was the

1:27.8	hour at night just to make sure everything was good and all the clients were happy. And it worked out
1:32.4	really well. Three hour time difference helps too. So that's always nice. Yeah, definitely.

1:41.4	get before you left. Yes. I read both of the Daniel Suarez, the two books in the series and I've
1:46.4	actually started on this third, which I know you don't like, but I've been enjoying it. So.
1:49.5	Okay. Yeah. I thought it was a steaming pile of crap, but it's not as good as the other two, but it's
1:55.2	still good. And reading is one of my favorite things to do. So just sitting around with the
1:59.7	iPad at the pool with my my tie, it was very nice. And you didn't drop it in the pool?
2:05.6	Did not drop it in the pool. So I do not need that particular feature. Somebody did send me the case
