    A rootin’ tootin’ start to the weekend…

    WARNING! WARNING! The exciting and dangerous stunts in the post were performedby professionals under highly controlled conditions. Do NOT attempt this at home. (especially if you have children nearby) WARNING! WARNING! It is Friday afternoon and both Jen and I are home early. So how do we kill a couple hours before starting dinner? A balloon shoot-out! Please notice the safety backstop (a green pillow) and the carnage stuck to the walls! (poor little balloons never had a chance!) After we got sighted in with the stationary balloons, I had Jen hide in the guest bathroom and fling a balloon into the hallway for a “moving target.” We both took…

    Oh Internet… I love you!

    Last week I decided to finally play around with Gmail and Shutterfly to see what the deal was and if they would work for me. I know everyone and their brother are already on the Gmail bandwagon and everyone else is already backing up and printing all their photos on Shutterfly, but just in case you are like me and are a bit slow sometimes getting in on the newest internet craze, I am here to tell you that using these two sites are a must… at least for me ๐Ÿ™‚ Gmail (i.e. Google Mail) Why Gmail?

I was south-bound on Cuyamaca, when I noticed (I use that word in the most understated sense) a large Chevy Silverado stalled in the left lane. Now this ainโ€™t your off-the-lot, normal pick-up truck. This was your double cab, long bed, 12โ€ lift kit, 38โ€ tires, gas-guzzling, he-man-woman-haters-club kind of truck. Of course, it was, at this point in time, being pushed, or at least attempting to be…
