I wish the computer I want was $2k!
I drove through Iowa; the miles upon miles of cornrows hypnotized me. They are so uniform that their passing is like a metronome; you can feel your speed by the tempo of cornrows. A cornrow metronome could be a new plug in. 8)

Kinda like a high corn version of the itunes visualizer!

Happily it is not all cornrows, or we would all end up hyponotized and in the ditch. There are some nice woods and hills too. It has always been my contention that if the weather wasn't so horrible, the state would be as popular as CA to live in.

However sometimes in the winter it is like living on the moon. And sometimes in the summer it is like living inside a toaster over.
