what a nice sign you’re wearing Comments Off

Today was the start of the anti-war protesters “sign day”, known as “Waves of Collateral Damage” to them. I’d rather just take pictures of them in their silly outfits which consisted of black attire, black robes, and white signs. Anyone in their crew care about the U.S. soldiers and their families?   The picture on [...]

Sony DSC-P72 impressions Comments Off

Was finally able to convince my wife that it was time for us to update our daily use digital camera. Since Aiden was born we’ve been using our low grade, always worked, 1.3 mega pixel Olympus D-340R. It works, it takes digital photos, they’re just not large or of extreme high quality. Being the ultimate [...]

ha ha, be gone! Comments Off

Finally, I can rid myself of the evil doers who call themselves “telemarketers” by banning them from my phone line for free. Of course, if they actually do call, it’ll cost them $11,000. I’ve had some great interactions with telemarketers in the past; ruthlessly hanging up on them, leaving the phone of the hook while [...]

Went to Stinson Beach today, very nice to live near a beach I might add. There was an extremely low tide today which allowed us to travel farther out than normal. While doing so I happened upon a lone baby starfish. Wonder what it was doing out here… normally you don’t see starfish near the [...]

Game Boy comes home Comments Off

I love my Game Boy Advance, I’ve owned one since they were released a few years back. Heck, I’ve even owned the regular Game Boy and Game Boy Color. But one of my favorite devices I used with the older Game Boys was the “Super Game Boy”:http://www.gamersgraveyard.com/repository/snes/peripherals/supergameboy.html for Super Nintendo.

sf rally lacks media attention Comments Off

You knew it would happen. One hundred plus coalition troop supporters show up in downtown San Francisco this afternoon (me being one of them) with media coverage and all. However, so far, I’ve only found one article directly related to the story and even that story is covered in anti-war protest media. *Whatever*. I will [...]
