Gordon's coming home for Christmas - now!

For a few hours you can watch Gordon's plane as it cruises across the southwestern US. Watch it here.

High Tech tracking of Santa

You know "where's Geoff." Now know "where's Santa." At the bottom of the page you'll see a link to a post on the official Google blog called, "Tracking Santa Then and Now." The post describes how NORAD came to track Santa every Christmas Eve, and how you and your loved ones can check on Santa's progress on that new-fangled Google Earth. And if you haven't played with Google Earth, well, my friend, now is the time to start!

I highly recommend you check it out whether you have children under eight or over, well, fifty-something.

Just to make it easier here's the link to the article.

To the Moon, Alice! or, I wanna be an astronaut!

Well, today is your lucky day. NASA is taking applications for the astronaut class of 2009. If NASA stays its current course successful applicants could well walk on the moon. Details can be found here. Good luck, Ace.

Sorry, but sometimes you just can't turn your eyes away from the train wreck.

Where's Gordon?

A variant of Where's Waldo (remember him?), look for Gordon in the official College of Wooster Orientation 2007 pictures. If you have small children this should keep them busy for hours. Here's a hint, he's in three pictures. Here's another hint, he's really tiny, perspective-wise. More? He's in photos 1, 15 and 19. More hints tomorrow or in a day or two.

The frantic pace seems to have slowed. Tomorrow, Sunday, is the first day Gordon has had to sleep in for over a week. Classes start this coming week.
