Welcome Pinky and the Brains

  • 5 Nov, 2006

Welcome to our new fish, Pinky and the Brains. Ok, so I can’t take a picture of the fish. Maybe I should have switched to motion mode or something. 🙂 Pinky, actually Pinky 2 as the first one didn’t last, is a GloFish®. GloFish® are fluorescent fish (see for yourself) that have been genetically created […]

  • 4 Nov, 2006

I snapped this shot as we zoomed past Valleyfair today. Disregard my wife’s hand. 🙂 You can see parts of Renegade rising above the trees in the background. In the foreground you see Excalibur. We did plan on getting a better shot but didn’t drive back by on the way home.

Netflix or Blockbuster?

A Month with Google Reader

Happy Halloween

  • 31 Oct, 2006

Here it is Halloween time again. This year we bought kids carving kits and carved some great pumpkins. We choose not to get the adult carving kits as they are always way to hard. I’ve tried them in the past and it’s never any fun. The kids ones however worked out quite nicely. Not sure […]

Video Spotlight: The Red Strokes – Garth Brooks

  • 29 Oct, 2006

In today’s video spotlight I have one of my all time favorite videos. It’s The Red Strokes by Garth Brooks. The use of paint in this video is a great effect, however it wasted a lot of materials. To shoot the video it took 5,000 gallons of paint and they went through 12 white Stetson […]

Welcome IE7 & Firefox 2

  • 27 Oct, 2006

This week not one, but two big browsers made major upgrades. I’ve gotten a change to play with both and I think everyone is on the right track, some just a wee bit behind. IE7 has been a long time coming. I think they said IE6 was released 5 years ago or so? Anyways, the […]
