    I use my iMate JASJAR (running Windows Mobile 5) and the .Net Compact Framework to issue X10 Commands via infrared to a receiver 4 feet away that interprets the signal to turn on my coffee machine and the shower at a 1 minute staggered time delay, so my Gaggia classic is working away building up pressure while I meander the 10 feet to my bathroom and wash off the smell of woman from the night before.

    The server running my own .Net driven X10 software then turns on the TV, and 5 minutes later the grill, so I can slap my bacon (sorry Muslims, note the capital M as I dont want to offend any ethnic majorities) right under it for the required period of time.

    I then scoff a well equipped bacon sarnie (not remotely for a change), while watching the weather girl du jour and idly looking at the people turning up late for work at the pensions company a short distance away from my flat.

    I then use the JASJAR to surf ContractorUK and post random mumblings based on an algorithm developed by Milan INC, which of course is also .Net based.

    At work the other day I went to the bog and there was a big sign on the door "closed for maintenance, please use other facilities". So I crapped in the photocopier.
