  • Early morning bike ride pictures

    Posted on February 4th, 2010 troy No comments

    Today, you get a multiple photo treat. But not like the 200+ that started this month (and I don’t blame you if you didn’t get through all of them).

    The pictures today are from one of my bike rides in 2009. Of course, there was a video too, and that should be on my wiki bike ride site somewhere, but these are some of the photos.

    Without further ado, enjoy some shots of a sunrise, and a take or two of power lines. After all, I do work for a power company!

    And if you haven’t figures it out yet, all the pictures I have posted for this month are in the February 2010 folder.

  • Engadget and the Banhammer

    My favorite technology site, Engadget, has done the unthinkable and I commend them for it.

    They have turned off comments.

    After a bunch of problems (which you can read in the link above), they turned off their commenting system. And that was TWO DAYS AGO! Still no comments, and I am happy. When and if the comments do come back, maybe this will make people think more before they type.

    Way to go Engadget. I love thee. Let me count the ways.

  • Baby Gus

    Tonight’s picture is brought to you courtesy of the Preschool. Sort of.

    For the current curriculum at the Preschool, the children needed to bring in a picture from when they were a baby. So, Melody got to reminisce as she went through the pictures from 2005 to find just the right one of Gus. And of course, it was one with his teddy bear.

  • LOST

    Did you get ‘Lost’ last night?

    The final season, Season 6, of Lost premiered last night on ABC. It started with a 1 hour, full series recap, followed by two hours of new show goodness.

    Melody and I enjoyed watching it in HD for the first time, at least when the channel was not breaking up. I made some changes to the TV connections after the show completed so that hopefully we will not have this problem next week. We can at least hope for the best. If it doesn’t work, I will try some antenna “trickery” over the next few weeks.

    In related TV news, we still can’t get FOX over the air. The saddest part (well, close to sad, anyway) about this is that I didn’t see any of the Packers games, but the good news is I don’t have to put up with American Idol. And for Idol, only the current season plus one more season left (my prediction). If you like the show, enjoy it while you still can.
