I had never heard of it until a google search of my own name this morning.  The funny thing is I have been to Fredericksburg, TX as a young man and may have drove right past it.

It’s good to know my cat Cash feels the same way about pizza as I do. Just imagine if it had anchovies on it.

Unlike it’s sister holiday, Lailapalooza, this does not happen on an annual basis. It is time once again my friends for Charliepalooza! For the first time since it’s 2006 inception in Vegas, it returns. Read the rest of this entry »

It was plenty hot enough in North Georgia today!

We arrived back in Port Canaveral from the Bahamas around 7 AM today and by 7 PM we walked through the front door. Exhausted is the word for the day.

I have started to post pictures from Cruise here

It will take a while to post them as I have to sort through over a thousand pictures on 3 cameras

One of our Jack Dempsey Cichlids stopped swimming today. A sad day in the household indeed as we only had three fish total, the two Jack Dempseys and a Plecostomus.

We bought the two as a pair when we lived in Ringgold and they made the move with us. Of course we didn’t move them like most people, we paid the local pet store $50 to watch them for a week so we wouldn’t have the rush of prepping their tank while they sat in a bucket or cooler. They actually bred once while we had them here but they all died or were eaten by their parents. Maybe they shouldn’t call baby fish frys and they wouldn’t have that problem.

So now we have a rather large lonely fish.

I wonder if there is a match.com for fish?

I grew tired of poor pictures when we have been traveling and needed a waterproof camera. I found a nice Vivitar Vivicam 8400 at Walmart for only $89.88 or something like that. I took the above self portrait with it and can’t wait to take it snorkeling!

Has facebook and twitter jumped the shark?

You can’t tell by the picture but the advertising board in front of this BP station in Davenport, Iowa is inviting people to follow them on facebook and twitter.

I personally am not a facebook or twitter fan and am not really too familiar with either of them, but does your corner gas station really need to social network?

That being said, my company had embarked on an aggressive facebook campaign also which currently has over 200,000 followers.

I think I just don’t understand or I’m old, or possibly some combination of the two.

I decided to stop and punch my ticket as a riverboat gambler on the Mississippi River. While I was surfing the internet on the plane I saw this casino had a 2 PM No limit holdem tourney at 2 PM. I arrived at the casino at noon which gave me plenty of time to get my player’s card and sign up. Read the rest of this entry »

This post is made from close to 30,000 feet some where over North Georgia.

Seems strange that it always used to be that you had to turn off everything electronic when flying and now you surf the web and play on the internet.Tempted to play on line poker but i think I’ll wait until a bit later. The rest of the passengers may not approve of some of the language used by the unlucky.
