Good Doggie!

President Bush's dog bites reporter on finger.

Too bad it was only a finger.



If you'll follow the related video links in the YouTube vid, you can see it all in slow motion.

Ride of the Valkyries - Wagner

Die Walküre Act 3

At the Royal Albert Hall 2005



I sure get a kick out of watching the expression on the singer's faces.

If I ever have a daughter, I want to name her Brunnhilde.

Flutterby

butterfly photo

I took several shots of this moth/butterfly/whatever, but it was so windy the camera wouldn't focus because the flower bush kept moving. There were all sorts of insects on the plant, some tiny wasp-looking things and some different types of little bees.

The best of a bad lot.

I Vote for Lilac




You Should Live in a Purple State



Your preferences are 40% Blue, 60% Red

You may not be a swing voter, but you feel comfortable around moderate people.

You tend to do best in states with a red and blue mix - like Nevada and North Carolina.

You are adaptable. You can converse with a church crowd as easily as with grad students.



Like a lot of these quizzes, some of the questions are ambiguous. For example, do I believe in evolution. Well, things change, and that's evolving, so I had to say I do believe in evolution. (it's a fact that mankind has been growing taller for the last couple of centuries, mainly due to better nutrition and pre-and post natal care)

If the meaning of evolution means did we evolve from apes, well.... I know what the Bible says, but sometimes I cannot take it literally.

I don't take too much in life literally except threats and the Constitution.
