I am really digging the Lea theme for Winterboard (iPhone). Very stylish, clean lines, good sounds, etc. Good stuff.

Wow, so many new developments for Larkin in just the last couple of weeks!

All of the sudden she can:

Blow her nose
Count to three
Know colors like red, green, yellow
Say, "hat" when she puts on a hat
Say, "up, down, yeah, and no" a lot
Consistently sign for, "more and all done"
Sing Twinkle twinkle little star.

Maybe more, and some of the more basic things she could sort of do earlier, but not consistently or often.

It's like an explosion of development in the last few weeks.

My head's spinning!

Got to get this stuff on video...

Wow, it's amazing how sketchy a supposedly 2 star, mid price hotel can be these days.

Don't bother trying the quality inn and suites in Florence, KY. First room was under construction (toilet in the tub!), second had hair on the pillows and a spider in the tub. The whole place was seedy as hell, and I swear the lady at the front desk, while nice, services the trucker guests.

 Needless to say we took off and found a nice La Quinta near the Cinci airport.

 Ahh, clean, hairless sheets ahoy!

Beware of Birthcertificatetoday.com and Easybirthcertificate.com Scams

birthcertificatetoday.com is a site that charges you $19.99 just to get a link to VitalChek.com, which is a legitimate source for ordering vital records.

Their site tries to look official, and the fine print at the bottom even tells you what they are going to do, spelling and grammar errors aside.

They say they are PayPal verified, and lead you to believe that you're paying through PayPal, but I don't believe either is true. The PayPal image isn't even hosted by PayPal.

Another site, probably owned by the same people, is easybirthcertificate.com. Same deal, $20 for just a link to what you can get for free.

Buyers beware of this scam, unless you enjoy paying $20 just to get a link you could google for in 5 seconds...

www.nocellpower.com just saved us hundreds of dollars. If you get this error for an Aqualogic salt water converter, check this site out.

Cannot be trusted to get to bed on time when Ash isn't home.
And Larkin will get up as early as always! =P

thinks both Etta James and the Inkspots are pretty great.

appreciates Flying Dog Porter's cursing label.

is dog tired after a day of pruning huge spruce trees.

is so tired all of the sudden. Might have to watch a DVRed show and fall asleep!

Is on the way to get his little buddy!

Making our way slowly north through the blizzard. Wow!

Is sad that Ned blew a bulb and the slideshow ended early this year.

I've been left alone at the grill. Hot dogs and steak.

Waiting for the womenfolk to get ready so we can hit the road again. Doing my best not to think about work!

The Johnson 3 are on the road to Chattanooga, and then to Calloway Gardens and FDR park for fest. Time to relax!

Heading to bed. One more day and it's time to head to the cabins on the lake and relax!

Cranked out 15 pages of an RFP response today, so that felt good. Now let's see how much gets chopped...

Heading to bed and preparing for a new work week. Time to start identifying my strengths and delegating my weaknesses.

Just learned that Larkin's daycare teacher lost her job, and we are NOT happy about it. Larkin LOVED her.

Alabama in the Sugar Bowl

While watching the Alabama game get away from the Tide in the first quarter, I decided to play with our new Nikon D60 and see what would happen if I got up close to the TV and used shutter delay on about F25.

No photoshopping, just timing and experimenting with leaving the shutter open for varying points of time.

I thought the effects captured some of the motion of the game in an interesting way, as well as perhaps the mood of Saban and Wilson as their heads were surely spinning.

Unhappy Saban
