New years on the centennial change came and went without much real change. However, today, the most Buck Rogers of household convenience items has followed me home! Yes indeed, I purchased my very own house cleaning robot: the Roomba. This little guy is charging up as I type this. Soon he will be whirring about the house, keeping it neat and tidy.

I looked through the attachments list, and I see there are numerous obvious attachments that are not yet available. I look forward to the "Danger Danger Danger" audio feature. I am keeping a sharp eye out for the flamethrower attachment - how could they make such and obvious oversight?
