Welcome to the new blog, same as the old blog. Google is deprecating the old ftp style blog, so I've migrated to having them host it. Probably all for the best.

But decided not to. I've been having some gadget lust lately, lol. Spent a lot of time looking at digital cameras on Amazon. Anyone want to buy me an S90?

Oh well... Your camera doesn't matter.

Our team's morale event was skiing at Crystal Mountain. I almost forgot that (1) I really liked skiing and (2) I'm horrible at it. Lol, only fell down once though. That's a record for me.

Finally found some time to put up a few pics from Marlon's visit. Marlon was here for some sort of boot camp thinger on some sort of business scorecard thing. Lol, all I know was that it was an excuse to fly out to San Diego. Traveling more is after all part of my new year's resolution.

It was fun whirlwind tour of 3 cities in 5 days.

The way I used to tie my shoelaces, they would come undone every few minutes. So much that I just wore them untied a lot of times. As usual, the internet comes to the rescue and I found Ian's secure knot. I've been tying my shoelaces like that for a couple of weeks now, and they haven't come undone so far!

Ian has plenty more stuff about shoelaces at Ian's shoelace site. He may have just saved me from an inglorious death of tripping over my own shoelaces.

I had just blogged about rereading The Catcher in the Rye, and now I find out that J.D. Salinger died.
