So tonight was my first class. We reviewed the basic steps that are used in the routine we’ll be performing. We also did some advanced work — including working with a veil, which was also a blast. I was able to stay for the begininer and part...
In an odd twist of fate, the IE7 development team sent a congratulatory cake to the Firefox development team for release of Firefox 2. That just seems so strange… The story reports that the cake was not poisoned. IE7 to Firefox Team Cake Related Images:
When I was little, I had four things I wanted to be when I grew up: A professional dancer, An archaeologist, A writer, or A parapsychologist. (Note: Professional rider is not on the list. I like to enjoy my horses and didn’t want them to become a...
An Internet friend of mine out in Utah has a scary knack of getting into the same activities I do. We were chatting on Friday evening and she mentioned that she was interested in belly dance. Just so happens a local friend of mine has been teaching...
Well not for me (I wish!), but for my coauthor. This week he is in Rome for an EpiDoc conference. With any luck, he will return with photos of some of the find spots of some of the artifacts in our list. If he’s lucky, maybe he...
The farrier came out today for Isis and Rajiyyah. The spots on Isis’ front feet are definitely looking better. Her feet are getting better and the funky fungal thing she had appears to be mostly gone. There is still a little of it in her front right...
The last time I really rode consistently was Isis’ show back in July. I rode Rajiyyah today and really felt slippery in the saddle (didn’t help I was wearing linen pants). Boy do I need to get my legs back in shape! Any way… She was good...
I was going through my pictures of Isis and I finally found the one of her running. I only wish this one had focused better. Oh well. It was taken with a Kalimar 35mm film camera with a 80-200mm telephoto lens. Related Images:
I can’t believe I missed it tonight! My favorite show and I got caught up playing Oblivion. Time passes when you’re having fun? I did watch last week’s episode, ‘New Earth.’ I was surprised that several scenes had been clipped to insert commercials. It was pretty annoying...
Would you like your own TARDIS? (Time And Relative Dimensions in Space) If you are a Doctor Who fan, you konw precisely what I’m talking about. The blue Police Callbox is an icon of the smash British science fiction series. So here is your chance! For an...
Yes, you guessed it. I’m a Who fan. Fan conventions with actors who have played the Doctor’s previous incarnations? You bet. Even have autographed posters. Yup, even started knitting the scarf. Doctor Who is an acquired taste. You have to like quirky, campy British humour to appreciate...
I’ve started reading a new book by Linda Kohanov called The Tao of Equus (see Web site). The author relates her own spiritual journey through her relationship with her horses. It’s a very mystical/shamanistic journey that she goes through. She uses her own experience and her professional...
This is a really cool tool that creates a graph of a Web site. The pictures are based upon HTML pages and tags used. Pretty neat. It’s a Java applet, so it can take some time. Web Sites As Graphs Related Images:
The roofers came back out on Saturday and have hopefully fixed the roof. It rained like mad on Saturday night and so far no drippings inside the house. There is just something so depressing about buying a house, having it inspected and getting a gold star —...
