Digital Shower

Tuesday, February 27, 2007

When the future finally arrives, I think one of the things I’m going to appreciate the most is the digital shower. (Does anyone make one now?) I think being able to simply digitally set the water temperature will revolutionize my morning ablutions beyond belief. Fumbling the faucets for five minutes trying to achieve the perfect shower combination of hot and cold water is so old school. I imagine a world in which I can use a fog-resistant touch-screen to find NPR or ESPNRadio, alert me when I’ve been in there too long, and deliver the exact temperature to make me happy.

The Greatest Shower of All

Tuesday, January 7, 2003

Few things are as consistently and excrutiatingly annoying as getting Whitney Houston’s The Greatest Love of All stuck in your head for no apparent reason. I don’t even think I’ve heard that song in years, but it’s been in my head for days now. What’s driving me nuts is that my synapses are also concocting lyrics to the song to complement whatever I’m doing. So while I’m washing the coffee pot in the morning I hear, “I believe that coffee’s in my future …” or when I get into the shower, “The greatest shower / of all / is happening to me …”

Gadzooks, man! Make it stop!
