Escapa!

Check out this “game” – try to keep away from the sides and from getting run over by one of the other blocks.  I scored 20.265 seconds!  Took a few tries to get the hang of it.

Ganked this off Episcogranny’s blog.

Rules:

* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence along with these instructions on your blog (or facebook wall).
* Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST. Best if you don’t even have to get up!

PhotoHunt: Ruin(ed)

Ruin – Roman ruins in Budapest, Hungary.

Ruin(ed) – Lava cake pan, really should read the directions more closely!

Happy Blogiversary to me!

It’s been one year of blogging peeps!  Wow!

Now, after a year, I need to figure out how to get the time on my posts to be correct – so folks don’t run away laughing…  Gotta keep up on comments to understand that one.

Thanks for reading, commenting, lurking and passing thru over the last year.  Can’t guarantee this next year will be any more exciting but you just next know – do ya!

TtV

I’ve had a little more success.  I’ve learned more about what my camera can do, and was the “winning bidder” for a Kodak Duaflex camera on eBay.   Since I “won” I got to pay someone for the camera and shipping…  but this was a very good win!  Here’s are the latest results.  More work is needed – but I think it’s getting better.

This is the original image, before editing:

Edited.  I need to block out the light hitting the viewfinder.  Next step is to build a contraption to do so…  I may need to clean the lens a bit too – although it adds to the effect.

History is Made

…and the “Redskins rule” remains true.  Redskins rule was 17 for 17 going in to tonight’s results – it is now 18 for 18! 

Here’s an article in the LA Times!  Seems we didn’t really need to vote.  http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-nflbox4-2008nov04,0,777089.story 

I voted anyhow (didn’t want to take too many chances) and Barack Obama has been elected the 44th President of the United States!

Sorry the Redskins lost but thanks for taking one for the country, guys!  Hail to America!! 

History was going to be made tonight regardless, but I’m happy about this version!

VOTE!

That’s all, just VOTE!  If you don’t VOTE you don’t have a right to complain.  I’m going to go VOTE now.  Y’all be sure and VOTE today!
