How does she always know? I’m sitting in the living room, and our dog Zoey walks past. Normally she would walk up to me and huff or stick her snout under my hand. Not this time; she heads directly for her crate. My wife is upstairs running the water in the tub. Water running in the bathtub is a nightly ritual for our family, with two daughters to bathe. Normally this doesn’t bother Zoey, it’s always been this way. January 3, 2008. Leave a comment on How does she always know? Not Old, Just Seasoned.

Another earthquake in Euless? Yeah, a 3.3 while my girls were getting their yellow belts! Http:/ earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Quakes/us2009gsba.php. May 16, 2009. Leave a comment on Another earthquake in Euless? I dunno if “rocks” is the right word. Perhaps “shakes”, maybe even “is felt in”. The quakes happened last night, but I felt nothing. My neighbor felt nothing. He did see news crews this morning though. Some sites are saying 3.0 was the largest, some 2.5. Still early yet!

Hawk – Snap

Hard to get a good shot. Here you can see the outstretched leg of its poor victim. Look closely, you can see the eyes around the branch. Although it looks more like an owl from this angle. Can’t see much of anything, but trust me, he sees us. Here’s proof. What a messy eater. I hope he took the remnants with him, I don’t think he stayed long enough to finish. He was watching us like a, well…. August 2, 2008. September 11, 2008. 2 Comments on Yard Hawk. Not Old, Just Seasoned. TED: Ideas Worth Spreading.

Would I walk on by? If I came upon a group of people like this blocking the sidewalk, would I just skirt on by? Watching this, I’d like to think not. But really, I’m tired of walking around, my feet hurt, tired of crowds. Would I? Davey Dance Blog -38- ROCKEFELLER CENTER – Mariah Carey – “All I Want for Xmas is You”. November 12, 2008.

DIY Scanner – Snap

Over at DIY Bookscanner. They have the plans for making your own scanner. I started with the latest plans they have. It calls for a CNC router. But some have used a jig saw to create it. I thought I would try that approach. I had the PDF version printed out (for months actually) and taped together; laid out on my plywood. After about an hour of this I thought to myself, “Oh hell no.” The previous generation scanner started to look pretty good. In the background, you can see the base made of 2x4s. I conve...

First Day of School Follow-up. Well, apparently we aren’t the only ones worried about our daughter walking home! Neighbor 1 stopped his car in the street near where Alex was walking and asked her if she wanted a ride home. Said he picks his daughters up every day, and wouldn’t mind! Friend 1 saw Alex walking home, and reported in to my wife. How fast she was walking, what she looked like, what she was thinking. Let’s go with gratitude. August 26, 2008. December 12, 2008.
