This summer, we went through an awful heat wave in the United States. I don’t know if my yard will ever recover, but temperatures are finally
down to the high 80’s or lower 90’s (at least in my homeland of Kentucky),
rather than triple digits. Of course, it
is nearly October, but hey, better late than never, right?

I work in a place where we have little or no control over
when the air conditioning comes on and when the heat is turned on. Despite the outside temperature, the HVAC is
controlled via remote from elsewhere, so when they decide it is fall, the heat’s
going to come on, and I need to be ready for it.

My cubicle is incredibly boring, though, and a plain fan won’t
help matters. However, a plane fan will. Check out this USB airplane fan from
Kikkerland. I don’t see a sale price
yet, but I hope to see one soon. This is
definitely a cool little item (pardon the pun!)
