Its been an awesome weekend. My personal batteries are well on their way to being recharged. I spent most of the weekend unplugged gardening, fishing and spending time with the family, friends and catching a movie. Its springtime people, load the portable music device up andstep out into the wide world.

There was a ton of nifty things happening online this past weekend. From Swine flu to Bacon stories. Any well heeled geek needs to find a happy medium when consuming mainstream media, so we have all of the back alleys and dark corners covered in this show. We deal with Remix Culture, legos, and design.

Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated!

Today’s Show:  St Patrick, Green Beer, Irish Coffee, ecology, recipes, Mario, Steampunk, Roomba, lemmings, Nintendo, Remix Culture, Coffee, Alarms

Green isn’t only about being ecologically minded these days, its also about celebrating  St Patrick’s Day, Celebrating to coming of Spring in the northern hemisphere and hopefully trying to save some cash while you’re doing all of the above. I have a list of awesome website with hilarious and intriguing content we’re going to go over.

What would a Caffination pre St Patty’s day episode be without an Irish Coffee Recipe and explanation. I’ll be putting my own derivation of the Irish coffee recipe out later later this week. Not too much different but I found it tastes a bit better. To top it off we have a metric ton of other content to fill your ears and spice up your dreams. No one i know can afford half of the outlandish gadgets and gizmos i see online, buts its always free to point, laugh or dream isn’t it?

So Please Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated!
