Powershell

At first, skeptical about using Windows Powershell. Later it was a good tool to live with for Keyboard pros than fiddle around with UI.

Sure, windows 7 has improved vastly compared to XP. At the end of the day, does the work get done is all that matters. Linux, Mac OS or anything for that matter should let users discover features with minimal learning to fulfill their work.

The good - Nice film center with free movies during summer.  New restaurants, Target store with ample parking. Target is high end here, so doesn't have some regular lower priced stuff seen in other target stores.

The bad - There is no such thing. It's a good place to spend an entire evening and feel good about the experience while slimming down the wallet.

Thanksgiving 2013

Considering it's densely populated, Fairfax county Northern Virginia does have it's charm. Anytime traffic on weekends just becomes magnanimous during holiday season. The fun of shopping on Thanksgiving night is good too. It was funny last year  to see every school kid lining up at Urban outfitters or some store which pretty much sells graphic tees, which does appeal to that demographic.

One thing for sure. It's no good to do door busters shopping when such deals are available all year long. Just that it needs some patience or time for research.

Weather predictions...

It's 2013 winter season. Living in Northern VA Fairfax county, I've seen winter patterns for the past 7 seasons. Snow fall generally happens end of the year or early next year. But the cold weather does catch up right at the tail end of fall. It's chilly, windy and reminds that seasons change for a reason. It's pleasant to have summer all year or just spring all year. I guess there is an age for that which yearns for it. At this time, I'm still good with whatever Mother Nature spins up from it's Kitchen.

Multitasking...

At best, it's better to do one thing at a time then do everything simultaneously compared to carrying no good memories of work just done.
