Plasma surface coatings for medical apps

So, plasma surface coatings are kicking ass in the news, still.  Every day I see something new and in this article (press release it looks like) company A announces purchase of technology from company B.

Who cares about the companies!  I just like to see plasma used more and more in the medical industry, be in this time for surface processing of materials.

“We are excited to add March Plasma’s extensive application knowledge and surface materials to the portfolio of surface modification methods and materials we offer to our medical device customers,” stated Jon Anderson, CEO of Harland Medical Systems, Inc.

Yep, looks like a purchase of A by B or what-not.

March Plasma Systems seems a good solid company with a nice product portfolio although all seem to be in the vacuum plasma field.  What happened to atmospheric pressure?  Didn’t you guys hear about this new cool thing where everyone can, like, not explode from vacuum and you have no need for expensive pumps?

Although, I do like the way vacuum plasmas look.  Much prettier than my plasma since in vacuum there is just so much more of it.

Well, you decide for yourself.

New theme, new site, etc.

So, I’ve upgrade the theme a little, merged this site with astoldbygogga.com and 47daily.com.

Both of those sites I am now killing.  There will just be gogga.com and gregfridman.com.

I am still considering what to do with tractoplasma.com.  I think I have a very good idea what to do with it.  I’m pretty sure I do! :)

ROTFLMFAO

There!  Didn’t I tell you it’s hilarious? :)

Rainy Saturday

You know how some people
like rainy Saturdays?
Well, not I.
I hate them!

Yes, you could sit at home,
chill and watch the tube.
Relax and read a book.
Clean up or paint.

Yes, you could.
But I want to be out today!
My toes are wet and cold.
Yes, still, I keep walking.

Dry-cleaning is not gonna
pick itself up.
Groceries will not magically
appear at my door step.

I like these chores!
I get to spend time with you.
I get to walk with you in the rain.
To pick up food, drop off clothes.

Wet?  Yes.  Cold, too.
Oh well, who cares!
I just wish
for the rain to stop.

I Am Great!

“By no means am I trying to say ‘I am so great’ but I am.”

Chicken chicken chicken

You must see this presentation. It is a scientific breakthrough.

It is “guest quote” time!

Every once in a while, I collect a quote which involves dialog between our beloved Gogga and another party. Here is one such case during a conversation with Gogga, myself, and Rxx (refer to the medley of quotes to understand the naming convention for those innocent peoples’ identity I want to protect)

Me: Someone beat you with an ugly stick.
Gogga: It didn’t work!
Me: Yea, it did the opposite.
Rxx: It made the stick ugly.

Getting any.

“The only reason I get any is because I find confused girls.”

Russian Accent

“You talk with no [Russian] accent. You talk like a retarded two-year old.”

You know the quote?

“You know the quote ’sobriety is for quitters’? Well pussy is for fuckers! … You don’t like that phrase? Well fuck you!”
