Always Alliteration Admiration

KVII-TV in Amarillo is using another one of my crappy photos again on their 5 o'clock broadcast (on right now) as well as on their website.

The very end of one, some might say

You Are a Colon

You are very orderly and fact driven. You aren't concerned much with theories or dreams... only what's true or untrue. You are brilliant and incredibly learned. Anything you know is well researched. You like to make lists and sort through things step by step. You aren't subject to whim or emotions. Your friends see you as a constant source of knowledge and advice. (But they are a little sick of you being right all of the time!) You excel in: Leadership positions You get along best with: The Semi-Colon

What Punctuation Mark Are You?

When I took this test, I expected to be ellipses.

I just thought....

Colorado Lightshow - Rocket Reentry

I was reading an article on the Wired website: Pentagon Unveils Rogue Spy Sat Shoot-Down Plan and stumbled across this vid.

(from the YouTube site)

According to NORAD, this is a Russian SL-4 rocket body that re-entered the atmosphere over Colorado and Wyoming. This rocket body is "space junk" from an earlier launch of a French Satellite on December 27, 2006.

Amazingly, the reentry occurred nearly 60 miles up and 300 miles to the West over the Four Corners area!

Cactus Heart

This was taken last year out at my friend Andy's house, just past the city limits.

Some grasshopper decided to do a little botanical engineering and carved out a heart for his girlfriend. I guess the relationship took off, because there's millions of grasshoppers this year.

I used to date an ol' gal who had a heart like this; no, it wasn't made of cactus, but it certainly was covered in thorns.

Tilted Perspective

I think I was leaning.

Pretty sure I was. I've always leaned a bit to the right, in reality and also politically. I walk pretty straight on the days my back eases up some.

I believe I was focusing more on the light standard than on the background object, the huge Cross.

Whatever, it's a little bit disconcerting, isn't it?

500 Miles - The Proclaimers

I like this acoustic version better than the regular vid.

A toe-tapper in any dialect or language.

Buddy Hollyish, I'd even say.
