Toys toys toys...

So surfing over at http://www.toytokyo.com/ (a great all-things-Dear-Japan-WTF-Love-Us store on 2nd Ave in NYC), this item caught my eye, mostly for the name: http://www.toytokyo.com/shopping/index.php/page/product/product_id/1655

It's supposed to be Bit Char-G, but all I can see is Bitch ARG, which I find much more satisfying as a product name.

Then I noticed what it *is*... a four *band* RC controller. Not four channel, four *band*. Hot diggity. There's got to be something out there in the great big world that I can mess with given that...

"Mommy! My RC car is running over Daddy's train set, and Grandpa keeps clutching his chest!"

Well, not quite as dramatic as last time...

The big windstorms in the news? Yeeeeeeeah, we lost power for a few hours.

Basically about 7:45 to 11:30 tonight.

Meaning we missed both airings of BSG. :P Ah well, thank god SciFi reruns everything to death. I'm sure we'll get four or five copies of it on the DVR before the weekend is over.

The storm was quite amazing - official reports are gusts up to 55mph, but I wouldn't have been shocked if it hit Category 1 gusts, from the way the house *rocked*... as in physically shifted, cracked, groaned, and generally made bad unhappy noises. At one point, we felt the floor sway from a wall of air that hit. And the rain? Oy. Solid. Just solid hammering of water. We went out a bit ago, and there were a tremendous number of *large* trees down. Rather wide regions of the city are dark at the moment, and we passed blocked road after blocked road.

Even felt like a hurricane in that the storm was 'banded'. 3-5 minutes of insane wind and rain, then a minute or two of calm, repeat as necessary until crap happens.

Well, thankfully we have power back. :)
