Houston, Houston means
that I’m one day closer to you.
Houston, Houston means the
last day of the tour and we’re through
Heading out later this evening to head to Houston. My company is having their annual meeting in Austin starting Sunday. So I am taking advantage of it and will be visiting my folks in Houston and my brother Walt near Austin.
Very excited.

I had not posted in a while so I thought I would post a picture of my cat Hope. While most people would look at a picture like this and think of them sleeping blissfully, I know cats and inside that little head she is plotting something nefarious.

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.

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.
