Purchased my second Arctic Breeze USB Desktop Fan with Flexible Neck and Adjustable Fan Speed new in the box for $14.99 with free shipping and no tax from a USA ebay seller. Works fantastic, and it's nearly silent on low speed, and not much noise at maximum speed. I bought this one as a spare. Needless to say, I love it.

Picked old Johnny Five up this morning, a few weeks ago I sent the frame off to Orange, new colour, charcoal grey with Orange decals (factory a-160 colours), had a couple of tokens put in the pikes and had the frame and forks fitted with a invisiframe kit....... ready for a thrashing on the trails.

Excellent deal. I should get Prime. Anyway, I hope you enjoy your new fan. It's perfect as a bedside fan, or on your desktop. It's not overpowering. Just has a nice gentle breeze on low which I use most of the time.
Thanks. I do have a small desktop fan, but its quite powerful and loud. I've thought about getting a different one that is quieter and your post reminded me of that.
 
Also ordered an Amazon Fire TV Stick. Since I recently re-signed up for Amazon Prime, I want an easier way to watch Prime video on my TV. Too bad Apple and Amazon don't get along very well and we can't have Prime Video on the Apple TV.

Don't forget to install Kodi on it.

Definitely comes in handy since I don't live in the states currently and can still watch some American TV.
 
Battleworld: Master of Kung Fu used. I never did pick up the last issue, so I got the trade for much cheaper. It was last Marvel series I liked.

If I continue to read current Marvel Comics, used trades will be the way to go.
 
Because if you can't laugh at what you love, what's the point?

Yes. It is real, and sadly, it did not come from my brain. :p This will be such a welcome respite from Literature. Now I know the central story isn't about Fang, but I can't wait to read Bru's mash up of two great genres definitely missing from Marvel right now.

Please let me know if you like it or not. Send me a private message or here if you like.
Just connected it up and turned it on. Very nice, quiet and enough air moving so I can feel it as I sit at the PC.

Thanks!
 
Very exciting! I got an Echo Dot last month and have been looking to add a Hue setup - I'm just dragging my feet on ordering it. Definitely interested to hear your thoughts once you have them setup!
I am impressed with the Echo. I like Siri, especially since it is on my wrist, but the Echo feels snappier. The hue response is especially fast. I also like the JRiver integration ( I linked my review of that setup).

The echo can also control my entertainment center via Simple Control. Not to mention playing music directly ( I have it hooked to an AirPlay speaker in the kitchen) and the fact that it can also work with Bluetooth receivers. I don't want to do a complete review here, though. I will probably have reviews of different features on my website over the next month or so, but I like it quite a bit right of the gate.

I bought some clear Hue bulbs for the porch since my last post.
