Embracing the Inner Geek
The depths of my own private geekiness.

I was just sitting here thinking about how cool it would be to have an infrared thermometer, you know, the one with a laser sight. Think about all the interesting things you could learn with it. You could walk around your house and find out where the drafts are, you could tell which cars just got home and which had been there for hours and cooled off already. You could take a sick pal's temperature while pissing them off by flashing a laser in their eyes.

Of course, by you, I mean me.

I could check both my fish tanks without moving, I could figure out just how hot the dryer fire does get.

So what have we learned?
How about this thermoview thermal imager to play your own game of Predator (you'll have to provide the warpy sound effects). It's only $10K, I hope Santa brings me one. Here, go straight to the gallery.

No, I'll likely end up with the MT4, its got the laser sight which is key to proper enjoyment.

I wonder if I can check how cold the ocean is from the cliffs? How do I tell what the temperature is right where I am?
But man oh man, wouldn't that thermal imager be just bitchin?
