Warning: Joke Xing

Two strangers were seated next to each other on a plane.

The guy turned to the cute blonde next to him and made his move. "Let's talk," he said. "I've heard that flights will go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."

The blonde, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly, and said to the guy, "What would you like to discuss?"

"Oh, I don't know," said the passenger. "How about nuclear power?"

"OK," said the blonde. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first:

a horse, a cow, and a deer all eat grass. The same stuff.

Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces muffins of dried poop.

Why do you suppose that is?"

"Oh brother," said the guy. "I have no idea."

"So tell me," said the blonde, "How is it that you feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know sh**?"

Bunnies

How was everyone's Easter? We went to Marcy's Aunt & Uncle's house in Pioneer. We taught the new bunny how to hide eggs, so the kids go to do some egg hunting. And look, I've even got some pictures of the event up on the site, Easter 2004. Aren't ya proud of me?

Egg hunting was not the only thing there to keep the kids occupied. With all those trees and space, there were lots of activities available for Michael, Tyler and Breanna to keep themselves busy. Michael, of course, spent most of his time playing his GameBoy, Breanna played games with her cousin Caitlin, but Tyler, well Tyler found some fun of his own. I put together this video clip here because words do not do justice to the kind of adventures Tyler conjured up for himself.

Anyway, we all had a good Easter and all of us, even Tyler, returned home in one piece. Hope you had a good and safe Easter as well.

Non Creative Title Goes Here

Found here!

I didn't really want to do this, but since I didn't get a chance to post any of the pics or vids I have from Easter, or the past few months to be more exact, this morning, I thought I would make a desperate attempt to entertain by way of meme.

Posting Time

If you have noticed that I have not been updating this blog lately than I would say your observation skills are pretty keen. It's not that there hasn't been a lot of interesting things going on in and around my life to post about, it's that I simply have to many things going on to justify taking the time to post. All of my morning rituals have been thrown off by my obsession as of late, but it hasn't proved completely futile. I did win something. PlayStation 2: RS3 Grudge Match II.

That's not all I've won, but it's the biggest prize so far, but I do need to get a little more balance back to my rise hour. Just to show you that I can do it, I've encoded a vid of Breanna on the links here.

I've also got a ton of pictures to post as we've recently visited San Francisco, Sonora, Plymouth (Yes, again), Salt Lake City, Colombia, Old Sacramento and I'm sure a few more places that I'm leaving out.

Breanna reminded me last night that Sunday is Easter, so I hope you have a good one, we're going to Pioneer for ours, and taking our new bunny with us. I just have to teach her how to hide eggs before then and we'll be set. Happy Easter!!

News From the Front

The tech front that is. This just in in the war on SPAM and Spyware!!

Do you think SPAM is nothing but a waste of time? Now you can use the SPAM you receive to win a contest. Full Story

If you are a shareware junkie, better be careful. You could be fined up to $10K for installing a program that includes spyware on a public or work computer. Full Story

The crackdown on SPAMmers is on. Police marched into an internet cafe to arrest this guy, so what did he do? Same thing anyone would do right? Swallow that USB flash drive and run....Full Story

Rick sent me this and I had to pass it on.

Dear Electric Customer,

Just a little note to let you know we understand your anger in the recent price hike. But it should be noted that you have no choice. We are a big company and you will pay what we tell you. You have no choice. We have the power, you need the power. So sad, too bad. Sucks to be you. We have enclosed a little picture to help outline our response.
