Tavern

I'm on this tavern bar on central station. Nice place and they are showing the basketball all-star game. 5 researchers from the lab are here. This is the first time that they are actually not talking about work. I guess they are humans after all. LOL.

Skype

I have been talking with a lot of people I haven't spoken in a while. It's nice. Yesterday I spoke to Mano for quite a while and this lunch time I spend sometime talking with my cousin from Rio de Janeiro, Holberi. It nice how the technology approximates us. My cousin I haven't spoken in many, many years.

Harvard

Sometimes a beer is not so bad for you. After a couple of beers this evening I think I achieved two things. The first is to get the opinion of a professor at Harvard from an idea I had for research. The second is another possible invitation to give a talk there. So who said beer is bad for you?!
