The only place more windy than the place I live in now was Clovis. At least here you don’t get sandblasted as well. I thought this video was pretty funny. Germans are WAY too excited about ‘renewable’ energies. Most people support these giant bird guillotenes, but most don’t realise that the thing needs to run over [...]

I live near nature – but I’m not a nature freak. You should see the state of my yard. I find it quite picturesque however,  when spoiled teenage ‘daddy’s girls’ trapse by on their overweight horses and ‘go out for a trott’, or whatever you call it. We have some pretty big stables in our [...]

8 Months = 233 Days = 33 Weeks = 166 Workdays.

Tonica gave my shit saying quote “How gay” – granted, but it was actually pretty cool. Literally – the temperature inside was down to -8°C to preserve the artwork. Below are some pictures [...]

I’m not the typical guy. I don’t watch sports all day every weekend, I don’t sit back and expect my wife to cook for me or deal with the kids (at least most of the time on the last one). I don’t claim to by a handy man although I’ll try it once in a while [...]

It’s been a year since I managed to worm my way through all the code and server crap to get this page up and running. I enjoy checking in every day to look at the latest statistics. The site averaged about 17-22 hits a day with 61% coming from the US. Average time on site [...]

The first of Feb ‘08 marked our granddaughter’s 9 month mark. We took a picture at the beginning of every month to track the fast changes she would be going through. Using this software I morphed some of the best pictures together to form this animated GIF below. Hope you like…
