Another Take On An Old Issue
Elmer Fudd Gets Revenge We were watching the Family Guy 100th episode special, and I randomly took a picture of the TV. To Pay Per Channel, or Pay For A Package? I heard another report (on the radio) recently that the Federal Communications Commission is once again taking up the à la Carte cable channel…

Danger: Explosives!
Rapid Evaporation (#1) Selected frames from Attempt #1 of Matt’s Boiling Water Experiment (YouTube). At -12F, a quart of boiling water thrown in the air above one’s head results in this huge cloud of steam and about a half cup of snow/ice pellets falling to the ground. The majority of the water evaporates instantly. Well,…

Minus Eighteen!
Peek-A-Boo! I just think this is an incredibly cute picture. She was reaching for the camera, yet was peeking around at me while doing it. It’s a little after 10PM as I write this, and my thermometer tells me it’s -18.6F. Yeah, that’s pretty cold. 🙂 I have been taking part, as time allows over…

Baby It’s Cold Outside
I See You Under There Kirstin looks a third time at Felix (who is hiding under the chair). As I begin to compose some ramblings tonight, my trusty digital remote thermometer tells me it’s -6.7 outside. Right now. It sounds from the weatherman that this is to be the way it is for the next…

Number Two
A Vintage Look I was playing around with this image a bit and decided I liked how this looks. I get a very ‘1958’ feel out of this; the faded and maroon-ish look to anything red in color. For reference purposes, here’s the original image. Another one nicely Viewed On Black. Of 2008, that is.…

Welcome to Twenty Aught Eight!
Number 2,000! She crawled right into the bathroom to check out what was going on tonight. This is the 2,000th picture of Kirstin that I’ve taken (or has been taken with my camera, rather) in the photostream! So a year has ended, and as a result begins another. I have been meaning to do some…

Happy Wednesday!
I Just Woke Up! And now I’m happy, happy, happy! So it’s Wednesday, and the Christmas cards went out in the mail (at least for those which are to be sent via the mail) today. Hooray! I picked up the pictures I’d sent off (electronically) to the drug store for processing on Tuesday, and I…

Oooh! Monday!
Happily Playing She was just happy and content to be playing on the kitchen floor. So this [title] was my attempt at bringing some life to my Monday night writing. Pretty sure I failed at it. 🙂 Today was pretty normal in many respects, at least until I came home. It was ‘photo shoot’ (for…

Another Busy Weekend
New Guitar String? She was playing with a soon-to-be-defunct (as soon as I get enough time to finish installing the structured media enclosure in the basement) telephone line that runs to our bedroom upstairs. So it’s been a good and busy weekend, just like I expected. Several things have happened in the last days, so…

Hungry Little Girl
I Eat Cookie Monster! Cookies by proxy? Cookie Monster eats cookies; Kirstin eats Cookie Monster? And it shows — she gained somewhere on the order of three-and-a-half pounds in the last month. Crazy. 🙂 She is officially nine months old today, which doesn’t hardly seem possible. So she had a doctor’s appointment, which went really…
