You've heard about the traffic avoidance and the outdoor office, but what other advantages are there to working from home?

Answering the door when the local real estate guy comes knocking door-to-door.

Why is this an advantage? Cause it just so happens my local real estate guy goes door-to-door on a Segway. And today, he asked if I wanted to ride it. Of course I said yes, and it was sooo much fun. It's faster and turns quicker than you would think. But it doesn't take long at all to get used to it.

Door-to-door sales doesn't have to be such a drag.

WFH (Working from Home) - is there anything it can't do? Two freeways shutdown due to fire? Not a problem if your commute involves walking down a flight of stairs from your bedroom to your home office. And yes, my commute would have been affected by the fires.

It's October, which means the dry winds are back in Los Angeles. And with dry winds come fire. Taken from my front yard, these are smoke clouds from the Porter Ranch fire, burning in the hills above. The wind blows from right to left in this photo.

A word cloud from the Vice Presidential debate on October 2, 2008 with Governor Sarah Palin and Senator Joe Biden. Palin's words are red, Biden's are blue and words in common are shades of purple. The word order is random, so generate your own word cloud to find hidden meanings and conspiracies.
