This Is All for Now
Mood:  a-ok
No more posts for awhile. Kinda pointless since it appears no one reads this anyway. Also the latest Anglefire quirk, I have yet to debug, I can't post links or pictures, etc., kinda puts a damper on using this blog in a more creative fashion. Perhaps I will look for another host for this blog.

and lastly and most important in lieu of the crappy political correct "Seasons Greetings"

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Amazing Vintage Photos

Topic: All Other Stuff
Enjoy the vintage photos found in old cameras, never developed until now. It's kinda eery, kinda cool looking into the eyes of people that are more than likely 6 feet under, who lived in a much slower world, a less hectic life.

Here is the link.

I see where a lot of folks on eGriz are crying over the loss to EWU last week. While it wasn't fun to watch our beloved Griz lose, especially in the confines of Wash/Griz Stadium, check out the following poor bastards. They've lost all of their first 6-games for a combined score of 299-0!

Flathead Lake Fly-Over

Here's a shot my son took flying over Flathead lake. I just had to share it, as it kind of looks like somewhere tropical, the water is so awsome! These islands are called "the narrows" or "bull islands". Finley Point is the pennisula near the top of the photo. Polson (or south) is to the right.

This is just too wierd. So wierd in fact that I had to post it. Our government in action, selling the little pocket knives, and files that they confiscate from you and me before we board a plane. Yes selling them. Selling them on eBay!

I always like coming home from Missoula, when we come up over the hill and are greeted with this beautiful site. We are lucky to be able to live here in the Mission Valley. This was taken about 3 weeks ago. Things have "greened up" considerably.

Sunset in the Mission Valley

We enjoyed a beautiful sunset yesterday. I thought this picture would be fitting to ponder, to think about those at Red Lake. To say a little prayer for those gone and those left behind.

A New Cartoon Everyday, well at least once per week....

Yes, folks right here in this post will be a new cartoon updated at least once a week. I'm not saying they're gonna be funny, but maybe sometimes.

Yes . . . Another Cool Little Game

Here's a neat little game where you have to save the scarecrows from the crows by flicking seeds at the crows when they land on the scarecrows. Kind of addicting though, thought I'd warn ya.

Super Bowl Comments
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: All Other Stuff
Well another super bowl has come and gone. It seemed like a pretty good game until the 4th quarter, when the Eagles made way too many mistakes, including poor clock management. Why they let the clock run and not go into a no huddle offense is beyond me. Did anyone else watch? Also, I thought the commercials were pretty drab, only a couple were slightly humurous. Overall, I felt a little let down, I was expecting more I guess.

On another note the slow cooked super bowl chilli and cornbread (with jalepeno and sweet corn) turned out really good, along with those lil smokeys (tiny wieners) soaked in barbecue sauce all day. The food kind of offset the medicore super day spectacle.

You Asked 4 It and I Deliver !

Topic: All Other Stuff
Yes, due to popular demand, thousands of emails and phone calls... another game! Only for this one you will have to think a bit. I've seen similar ones like this where you have to know U.S. geography and guess the states. This one times you, gives you your average error in miles, and tracks what percentage you got right on the money. I got 62%, 114 miles average error and a time of 228 seconds on my first try. Link City Baby I couldn't quite get all those little goofy states in north east just right.

Moon Rise Over Montana

Topic: All Other Stuff
While I was out with the pooches last week, I watched the moon rise over the Mission mountains. It's something you never tire of, something that really can't be fully captured on film or tape.

a special glow, a special light, a special time

More Fun and Games !
Since it seems you all loved the last game link I posted from the hundreds of comments, may I present yet another L*I*N*K to a series of strange games.

And as always....enjoy!

Beaching of Whales in N.C. may be linked to Navy Tests
May be linked? At least 37? Yeah right, this happened before off the coast of Bermuda when the Navy was conducting similar tests....read on to this pathetic story

WASHINGTON - At least 37 whales beached themselves and died along the North Carolina shore earlier this month soon after Navy vessels on a deep-water training mission off the coast used powerful sonar as part of the exercise.

Although the Navy says that any connection between the strandings and its active sonar is "unlikely" - because the underwater detection system was used more than 200 miles from where the whales washed up - it is cooperating with other federal agencies investigating a possible link.

Here's a LINK to the Bermuda story, there's a vid and some pics, kind of shocking, slanted a bit? maybe as it is an environmental group site. But hey, I think we have a problem here and our Navy's killing whales when it doesn't have to.

Suicide Goofball May Be Put to Death !?!?

Now this story out of Los Anj-A-Leeze was strange off the bat, but as it evolves it gets even wierder. Now the D.A. my seek the death penalty in a case where the accused murder, who was originally attempting suicide then decided not to, ended up killing at least 10 people, now may be put to death?!?! L*I*N*K*Y Hey man, you can't kill yourself, that's ilegal, but we can kill you. *head scratcher*

Now Playing: Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing, Oh Come All Ye Faithful

While I'm not a devout Mormon, nor am I a Mormon hater, my perspective on This Story is that it's quite funny. I don't know if I'd take my company's marketing campaign quite this far, but it is a brew house, so they 'tend to fall into their own category of funny, campy, trendy, catchy names, labeling, packaging, etc. Nice slogan by the way, "Why Have Just One"?
