If we haven’t been banned at Bernie Ecklestone’s house yet, this week’s show probably won’t help our case any…
We’ve got our first images from the Lytro ready to share. Check out the previous post on the blog to access the gallery.
The Formula 1 season may be over but there were still a few things to talk about… Like the short list for new presenters at the BBC, changes to next year’s calendar and a possible return to Turkey, or not. Maybe Austria? There have also been some rules changes for 2013 and 2014 The new racing series Formula E will get a race in Rome…
In other news, Voyager 1 has left the solar system – probably.
The job market is bad – but not in North Dakota.
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again. Lego is truly an amazing company.
From the dumb criminal files…
We have the dumb teen bankrobber…
The dumb WalMart Shoplifter…
And the newest member of the Hole in The Wall Gang…
And finally we tested the Keurig B60 Special Edition Coffee Maker. We’re not sure what makes it a “Special Edition” however we liked it, and if you’re in the market for a single cup coffee maker it’s one to consider…

I remember playing with Legos when I was growing up in the ’70s, and they were the best toy. That was before they came out with all the special designs and dedicated kits, which seem to widen their appeal even further. It’s neat to hear that there are some nice people there too.
Listening to the story about the Brazilian jail break, I’m guessing Brazilian jail libraries don’t have “Winnie the Pooh” books!
As for your Keurig review, we had one of these machines at work and broke it in less than a year, even though only about half of us actually used it. While it was working, it probably made around twenty cups of coffee each day. There was always some guesstimating what size serving you wanted it to make, and I remember the water reservoir being a bit finicky to refill because the top wasn’t level — you had to take care not to overfill it.
At one point a while back, you guys mentioned that you might be looking at a MINI Countryman. Did that ever come to pass? I’ve driven several as service loaners and liked them . . .
Happy holidays!

I’ve heard of reliability issues with the Keurig but avoided mentioning them only because having the machine for a month didn’t really give it enough of a workout to experience them. If we had the machine for longer we might have seen them ourselves…
As for the MINI, it hasn’t happened – yet. Truly at this point it isn’t a question of if we get the MINI, but when… Stay tuned…
