I couldn’t convince hubby to go on the ferris wheel, though. That’s one of the few places we are different. I love heights, he doesn’t.
Now just chillaxing on the couch with my kitty
Hubby was right. Taking the day off was good for me. Althoug, the day in the sun made my arm freckles come out in force
*High five* to John for his good deed. Sounds like a great day, Bunny.
High 5 to Mr. Bunny.
I admit that I’m a bit of an aviation geek, uncovential airplanes usually pique my interest. Did anyone else catch the NatGeo video about the Horton 229 aka “Hitler’s Stealth Fighter”?
http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/episode/hitler-s-stealth-fighter-3942/
Engineers build a full scale mockup and test its stealth characteristics which were pretty good. A little digging on the internet and it appears that a few independant RC hobbiest have built their own flyable scratch built planes.

Amazing.
That Horton fighter was especially good at detecting Whos.
…. I apologize ….
The joke was bad enough to cause a momentary site outage.
It was the only thing that could hear them. :)
“If EssBee can grab that . . .”
Oh, she can.
Only if its like you want it…
Let the teeth grinding commence!
Steve Jobs Resigns as Apple CEO – http://x.co/ZGhm
/tweet
“The timing of the announcement, however, was a surprise and raised questions about the health of Mr. Jobs”
It was a surprise? To who, the blind? whenever I’ve seen pictures of Steve Jobs recently he looked far from well, and I figured it was inevitable that he would be resigning in the near future.
Maybe I’m just too much of a cynic.
Steve who?
This is fascinating:

I didn’t watch the video.
The Wizard of Woz plots his return.

It’s taking all my willpower to NOT respond to this tweet with: “I’ve never used my oven to keep my kitchen cool.”
The grammar police have taken over my brain … misplaced modifier? Is that what it’s called?
Saw this linked on Twitter:

Funny, I saw that on your Facebook page.
If you guys are on Facebook, check out the dragon Sly B crocheted for me!
I don’t see anything. :(
Ah, crap!
Maybe you have to be friends with her?
I’ll post a link as soon as I figure out how.
For the benefit of the Facebookless:
Today I learned that the secret to getting a six year old boy to practice his sight words is to let him say “FART!” after each one and laugh.
Don’t think you’ll see that one mentioned in the “how to raise your kids” section of the book store :)
Here is a reading tip for youngsters that I ran across.
Better reading through comics!
Check out ebay for someone selling large lots of Disney comics from the 70′s … if you can get like 20 to 50 of them, you might get them for like 50 cents a piece. Then you hand them out to your kids as rewards for good class work or whatever. Since they are mostly graphics … it helps the kids figure out what the words are.
Just be ready to explain that goof’s words aren’t necessarily “real” words. “Garsh!” ;)
And, the coolest video from an astronomer of the east coast earthquake you will see today:

Interesting that there was that much action in Texas but I don’t know of anyone here who noticed it at all.
Silly story from today:
You know you work in the IT industry when you have to explain to a coworker that, in an email written by someone in the medical industry, “outpt” is shorthand for “outpatient,” not “output.”
Just posted on the last episode like a total n00b.

Essbee, you of course need to install the free Stuffit Expander before trying to extract that RAR file.
Van, it would be much easier if you’d just come over here.
;)
Doing it now.
Installed! Expanding!
We have liftoff!! You are a patient man, Van. And Justa!
Okay, try this! Link to dragon pics:

Very Cool. She is very talented. Puts my knit daschund to shame.
Talk about creepy. Interpret at will.
