Make things!

eTech season brought the annual visitation of Mikek and his fiance' Liz (soon to have a doctorate in information from Berkeley! How cool is that?).

We had a great time, as usual, catching up on life changes and telling many subtle stories about people we all knew long ago. Karl was pretty miffed at the way he was being ignored. He even had the self-awareness to tell us "I want some attention!"

But when he was going to bed, I did manage to explain why he should be happy to have Mike come visit. "He does the stuff you want to. He makes big things, and robots," I said. Karl was dumbstruck.

Maybe we should get him a subscription to Make, and he can work for ThingM when he grows up...
