A jolly oops. I stumbled across this nice fantasy art site by cat watson while looking for cartoon info.

There are 3 caches within about a quarter of a mile of the floating rock cache we did on Monday. Nice spot in Palos Verdes. Need to go back!

There wasn't enough room (and I couldn't find the perfect wording because I'm still laughing) to add a thought bubble like "Bang! I just shot whoever gave me these pants" Nonetheless, I will not let that deter me from publishing this wonderful picture of young Master Pixelfix. This is a must see.

A little mouse emailed me a great idea for what to do with my old Mac. Well, it's not actually something I'd have a use for, but it's funny reading. Plus. I didn't even know there was black heavy metal scene in Norway!

Since going orange, iPaulo's been without the archives. Those are back now. If anyone has javascript for cleaning those up, let me know.

Is the guy on the right trying to lull his friends into thinking he's too stoned to play well? Not sure, but chekov's poker page is still kind of fun.

Oh, oops. Ice Age was uproariously funny. And did I mention I love my new black gauntlets?

Yesterday was another great day

Yesterday was another great day of geocaching. Went to 1 excellent and 1 amazing spot. They are only about 6 miles apart along PCH. Easy to do both. They make a nice combination too. The first is in a little park with small baseball diamonds, and lots of people and kids. The other is well named "Pt. Dume Solitude". A small stream of people around, but the view is so amazing, it's easy to tune them out, just feeling the wind against your face, and hugging the person you're with to stay warm. (p.s. Yes, I know.. I need to get a camera to take pictures of these places)

Today's swordfighting lesson was totally

Today's swordfighting lesson was totally different! Last week, we worked mostly on footwork and my legs just about fell off an hour into it. After class, I had that great heavy workout rush in all my limbs and especially my chest. Today, we did much less footwork and were cutting and parrying with our sabers all class. After class, my hands and arms were a bit sore and my body was limber but the big rush was in my head. Whacking and parrying was mentally challenging with a completely different sense of invigoration. (and at the end we got to hold broadswords!)

Also, thought I'd share my latest personal lyrical misunderstanding. Ever since the Mead Wedding, I've been singing the song "Under a Violet Moon" by Blackmore's Night incorrectly. I'm pretty sure it's raise your hats and your glasses too instead of raise your hands and your glasses too. Oops. Now that I've got that off my chest, I can go about my morning.

Woot! Thursday Amazon delivered my new eTrex GPS receiver. What a toy.. I mean valuable tool. Now I'm ready for my first hike Sunday. It might even rain!

*groan* Windows CE on the battlefield? Truly amazing that it's expected the thing will crash "If the Windows-based machine crashes, says Batcheller, it can be rebooted within 12 seconds." Doesn't sound like a lot of time, but I'm sure soliders will rue that 12 seconds.

A little early morning (6 am) blogging. Maybe I'll start blogging every morning after my A.M. Yoga with Rodney Yee - I could even make a video about it and call it A.M Blogging with iPaulo. Anywho. I hadn't been to the Astronomy Picture of the Day site in a long time. It's an oldie but a goodie. An image of M27 from a few days caught my eye.

2 out of 3 ain't

2 out of 3 ain't bad. I agree with the author of this msn article about alternative oscars. The Others and Training Day were both amazingly good movies. I think they'd make their way into my 2001 Top 10 movies. However, American Pie 2 I thought was a pretty forgettable sequel. (oops. forgot to link to it. See what I mean?)

Saw Gosford Park this weekend.

Saw Gosford Park this weekend. Good flick. Funny. Some great actors in it. I missed something about its Who-Done-It aspect though. Still not sure who the murderer was. Oh well.

Also went to another dinner party. It inspired me to try and finally make my apartment presentable. The host had cleverly hidden stacks of boxes behind one of those free standing Japanese style screens. I looked around for a place to put up one at my place, but it won't work. Too much junk to hide. I'll have to just keeping cleaning. Of course, flea showed me a way I might be able to get rid of some of my old SF books. That'll be a big help.
