Contacting the dead

I have my ghost radar app going and it said some interesting things.  It said July (there is a beam in our basement that says July 1928 and has a swastika on it), built, and German, amongst other things.
It also said hide, cannot, and quickly, all in a row, which kind of freaked me out.  It hasn't said anything in a while.  I played with some of the settings and I hope I didn't turn off the speech by mistake.  I also don't see any more colored blips.
I confess I tried to respond to the words it was saying, like when it said built I said "When was it built?" and that's when it said German, which doesn't really make sense, but maybe it misunderstood me.
Anyway, I see how the thing works--basically it could spit out any words and people would find a connection, because that's what we do.  We look for faces in the shadows and our brain makes all sorts of other connections that we don't even realize.  But it's still fun :)

Writer's Block: Staying Connected

Oh man, between my laptop, Kindle, ipod touch, gps and desktop computer I don't think there is a time when I'm not using at least one of those.  Well, except when I'm sleeping.  But yeah, I am completely technology-dependent.  I could go without the tv for the rest of my life before I let anyone pry my laptop or desktop computer out of my hands.  The kindle and ipod, I could also live without.  But they're nice.
I need a new news website though...I'm getting sick of cnn.com and their useless stories, typos and "OMGz CHECK OUT SO AND SO IN HER BIKINI" pictures.
