It’s important to show your child who is boss early on… ever watched super nanny?

Something I saw around the interwebs yesterday,

Use an Old Linux Computer to Put your Baby to Sleep

If you are not a computer geek, here is an explanation of how this very simple program works.

First the program will auto-eject the CD-ROM drive attached to the computer and will then close the tray. This will then happen over and over again until you stop it.

while [1 = 1]
 do
	#eject cdrom
	eject

	#pull cdrom tray back in
	eject -t
 done

This is the result…

The lazy person who thought this up, tied a piece of string between the CD-ROM drive tray and the baby car seat and as the tray would open and close, the smooth movements were enough to put his baby to sleep.

Got back yesterday afternoon after a nice couple of weeks away with my family, the trip back is always tiring even though yesterday was really smooth from the 3 hour taxi to the 3 hour flight then the final delightful trip through the exotic sights of hounslow.. after a good night sleep i’m ready to get everything back up and running again.

If you do ever find yourself in eastern Europe I recommend their dentists far more than the ones here if you are in need of a bit of work doing at a fraction of the cost. A filling that will set you back £80 here will be 10 euros in say Macedonia where I went with my 6 year old niece to get myself sorted this time, two fillings and a nice cleanup for 25 euro.

Here she is being cheeky while the dentist pops out for a smoke
