Happy Tuesday, dear readers! Can you believe we are in the last week of August already? I certainly can’t. I’m just glad my campus runs on the quarter system so I have a bit more time to prepare for the start of the school year. But today’s post has a couple of diversions that should make you smile on this, almost-the-middle-of-the-work-week day.

I find prototypes of cars fascinating and really love this video on Gizmodo of a
foldable, smartphone-controlled electric car. This would make parking a lot easier in the city.

Also, if you are like me you probably like to listen to music, at least occasionally while working. If so, check out the Sleepy Man Banjo Boy’s performance at TED. It is just wonderful.

Have a wonderful day and I’ll be on Friday. Allons-y!
