This annoys my wife... but I wear shorts all the time.. unless the situation says I shouldnt... such as work.  I dont care how cold or how hot it is, I wear shorts.  Funny thing is that when I get cold, its generally my arms and face that get cold, not my legs, so it dont really bother me much until those gt cold, then, um, NOPE :)  I dunno what it was last night, close to freezing (which I know is nothing like y'all back east) but with the moisture in the air, it was just really cold last night :)

Twas me... I was outside yesterday from 11am until just after 4pm, back out just after 5pm until almost 6pm when it got so cold I gave up :)  Got the lower section of my yard almost done (got to get my Merry Christmas sign attached to my rock wall and a couple small things), gotta get my windows done and a few others, but I got a bundle done by getting 5 controllers (80 channels), completely plugged in to power and all my items for those channels.

My wife says to me last night before powering on... "How are you going to feel if you flip the switch, and then NOTHING!?"  I told her, "Geez, thanks for putting that thought in my head!"  I knew it wouldn't do that, cause as long as my channels were plugged in right and the system finds those boards, were good to go and after firing up HWU and doing a discovery to see all 7 there I hit "ON" and lit the neighborhood :)

As for being watched, my brother in Oklahoma sends me a text message occasionally to comment on something after seeing me do it to let me know they are watching.  It dont bug me, think it kinda cool really, especially that they are watching.  They were here last year and my brother and newphew helped me hang nearly 7000 lights and got to see the first computerized show I ever did.  This year we are just over 20,000 lights... sure could have used his help :)  Cant complain though, have got lots of help when needed from different friends :)

P.S.. That's my brother with me in my default pic over there.  I'm the one with the Schooner Wagon on my head, we were at the Oklahoma Sooners vs Washington Huskies in Seattle game back in September that he flew out here to go to with me.

The MS Life Cam that I have is a great one, with really good audio built in... but its not wireless.  I still wouldnt know how to do that even if this one had audio, how to show the lights and the audio at the same time, since I dont broadcast audio outside... even if I did, there would be a matter of syncing it via the cam also... probably wouldnt go exact, so that it wouldnt look/sound as good either, cause I know that most cams hve a few sec delay, videa wise.

WOOHOO!!

I agree about the sound... but this is just 1 more way to share the lights, not that ours are that great, but family in Oklahoma want to see them and while I will post videos of a few sequences, this is just that 1 more thing that people can see live :)

Thanks for testing that, I appreciate it :)
