Kenta has a friend at church - a kindred spirit, if you will - who shares his love for all things electronic and gadgety. Last weekend, this friend introduced Kenta to the wonders of Lego mindstorms. He's pretty much been talking about legos non-stop ever since, trying to convince me of their undeniable usefulness. Last night was no exception:
Kenta - I just saw this awesome youtube video today.
me - Hmm....
Kenta - Yeah, this guy had programmed his lego robot to solve a Rubik's cube.
me - Hmm...how can a robot do that?
Kenta - He programmed it to recognize colors.
me - Hmm...really.
Kenta - Yeah! Think of all the things I could program the robots to do!
me - Like what?
Kenta - I don't know. What would you want a robot to do?
me - (glancing at the sink, overflowing with piles of dishes) Huh. I want a robot that will wash the dishes for me
Kenta - uh...Kendall...
me - Yeah?
Kenta - They've already invented something for that
me - ......?
Kenta - It's called a dishwasher.
Doh!
So much for my short-lived interest in lego robots. Kenta hasn't given up his efforts to convert me to lego robotism. He emailed me this video today:
I'm trying to decide where I would store something like that.

Lol! Love the dishwasher epiphany! too funny. I wouldn't mind having something to fold my clothes, but I want it to do everything, not just shirts. I especially want it to match all the socks that are taking over my laundry basket!
sort and fold socks too AND iron and I'll take one! I'll find a place to store it!
cool dude
Very nice... Yeah, it's amazing how many robots we use everyday if you really think about it.
Hi Kendall, I was just wondering where you guys are living exactly. We were just in Lebanon interviewing and it looks like we just might decide that is the place for us. I was wondering if you have any thoughts or advice on cost of living, awesomeness, etc. I would appreciate it!
