I need a Cattle Drive or something

Man I feel like I sell "air" and someday I am going to have to account for my employment in front of my child's class and it will be sad when I have to admit how much time I have wasted working for someone else.

McCain taps a Cougar for his VP running mate


I'd say she is hot. I asked my wife and she says "for a politician". No way...

She is a cougar... and I dig her qualities that I read. Nice work John.

Most unsung Cameo acting ever

Carlito's Way - Tony T played by Frank Manucci.

What an incredible performance. And he has been credited with
nothing before or since.

I should take him fishing and find out what the heck he is doing.

Wacky Ball of Flame and No Fuel


So I ran outta gas heading south on I-5 just under the 205 interchange. My loving and lovely wife brought me 5 gallons of premium and my youngest daughter gave me a beautiful smile and some kisses. It's always good to spend some time with those girls when I am in "super-toughguy" biker mode. It brings me back to the suburban reality.

So while I was relaxing in the grass next to the freeway I got to spend some time getting to know our sun a bit better. What a weird ball of flame and as cloud cover passed between it and my eyes it seemed like I could watch it shapeshift. It was very cool. Not often enough do we take time for those sorts of things.

At Black Butte last weekend I watched the stars move through the sky. I wrote something to the effect that we need to slow down and watch the earth rotate sometimes- It's healthy. I actually did watch the stars move in relation to the dark shadows of a few huge trees framing the nightscape above. I'll be heading to McCall, Idaho tonight with the family and I hope to get to do a bit more of that sort of thing.

Stop-Motion Wall Animation

A cool blend of several forms of creativity.

All they found was the camera ...

Put your coffee down before you start watching this. I was standing over my buddies shoulder with a fresh cup of java. He asked me to watch it... we just didn't think about the coffee in my hand.

Maybe one of the coolest drivers in racing history... an independent
