Puma... always on the prowl

The winner of the eagle nation sand castle contest... I think!

Update! The Puma tribe won, no one came close. I do have to say that the Maco tribe made a grate sand sculpture of a shark eating one of the Brave's sister. They won the prize for most creative use of a condiment. but there was one really cool

I've been using this site called Mapmyride.com to capture my cycling habits. The below is a map showing my commute. I'm stoked because with the time change this weekend I'll be able to do it more often without taking time from work.

We've been invaded by a cat from outer space.

Life is good

We got booted from our house this weekend because we were having our house tented... so we went to the beach. It was cold and gloomy all weekend but we manager to have a great time with my little brother nd his family. What a great time.

Its nice to be back in the old neighborhood.

Sarah Palin on Glenn Beck

Great interview monologue by Glen Beck. Governor Palin and Glen go over the sacrifice that the polar bears would happily make (I assume they are legitimate Alaskan's) to save the country from sky rocketing gas prices.

Good Stuff!

Big Blue is Gone... RIP

Back in 2004 I bought a truck, for the first time in my life I decided that I would get the truck I wanted, it had the big motor, the right color, matching camper shell, seating for six, it had everything I needed and everything I wanted ... it was a nice truck! But as we were using it to move back from the East coast we ran into a little trouble; as I sat sleeping in the passenger seat, the PA turnpike collaborated with two semi trucks to drive Big Blue into the cement median in the middle of the Turnpike. Thank God no one was hurt, the truck absorbed all of the impact my Mom (the driver), myself, and two dogs in the truck were not injured at all. So far the only damage we have noticed to the content of the truck was one broken glass in the back.

The truck on the other hand was a complete loss. Even though the cosmetic damage was repairable and the engine still ran, the impact bent the frame of the truck making it to expensive to repair. I'll miss having an all purpose vehicle capable of hauling kids, bicycles, dogs, and people in relative comfort without any reconfiguration. Our next car will most likely be much more fuel efficient and not nearly so useful.

Rest in Peace Big Blue, and may your salvaged parts keep 100 trucks working hard in southwestern Pennsylvania for years to come.
