Didn’t watch the Superbowl. Whoops. I suppose I’ll find out who won sometime this week.


It snowed tonight, and was quite brisk today. We took a walk into the bay (it had frozen, and the water retreated quite a distance back. The [edit to complete]

cold weather iced over the bay, allowing BHK and I to walk out on the mud flat and take pictures from the water zones and ice toward the beach. Found all sorts of nifty old bottles, shark’s teeth and horseshoe crab carcasses frozen in the ice. Too cold to go out without gloves, however, so I took pictures here and there, but kept my mitts in my sleeves like an amputee cut off at the wrists.

Yesterday, at the regional home show, there was a huge display regarding “DRYER FIRE” – it turned out to be a $1 bottle brush renamed “Dryer lint safety brush”, and selling for $20.

I say, “bah, a mostly synthetic danger cooked up by lint brush salesmen… if you clean the lint trap, how can can it be?”

If I were a more superstitious fellow, I’d fear cruel irony, as we’re doing laundry.

That said, I got the idea for a new item.. the smoke detector smoke detector… to detect if your other smoke detector is on fire… because you know that more than nine out of every ten smoke detector fires is started inside a smoke detector. (I wonder how many house fires have started from an electrical short in a smoke detector?)


Pomonkey – best local Amerindian word / Town name ever. Aww.. Po’Monkey got no nanners! Possibly a place to get a gig re:security and etc, too.

Pomonkey had a dryer fire!


Garden plan –

Tina, the In-Laws, BHK and I have a garden planned for our back yard – planting begins in March for the first crop.
DSCN3860

It’ll be in our back yard… Larry’s going to bring in a few truckloads of topsoil and rototill by the end of this month… BHK and I will be working the section with broccoli, peas and parsley in March, and then continuing to pumpkin, watermelon, cantaloupe, cilantro, sunflowers, green beans and garlic at the top of may.

Other crops tended by the gang will include potato, onion, carrot, radishes, a few varieties of tomatoes, grapes, blueberries and all sorts of others. I expect it’ll be a fun and educational experience… I haven’t grown anything on this scale before, but we’ve got a master gardener, an engineer and a farm boy on our side to help keep things a-rollin’.


Finally Added Pye and BHK to my bio page… sakes! Pokey puppy Scotto.

8723 –

Started installation of a new commode (the old wax seal was going and was beginning to leak), and got sort of side barred into a trip to the Marine Museum on Solomon’s Island. It was a fun trip with the in-laws and BHK to points exceedingly south. After the museum, we waited a long while to eat at Outback, but the food was tasty and plentiful. (I think it made Chris more angry than anyone else) I think I’ve gone out to eat more in the last three months of marriage than I have in the last twelve of bachelorhood! I’m trying to eat a bit better, though, and keep it at least moderately healthy. The waistline is doing a bit of a retreat, which is good.. I think that’s primarily due to all the running around town and moving that’s been done.

Some swim meet pics of my Brother-in-law – Adam, 17, Swim Team Cap’n.

Thumbs up for Northern! Swim meet adam frogbelly adam Grinnin' Adam

Quite a little stud muffin – he’s very popular with the ladies, especially while being all sporty. He’s really a great guy, and is very talented across the board – Physics, guitar, athletics. If he wants, he could go anywhere or do anything he might choose. He suffers a little bit from teenager-itis, but he’s generally a gentleman and all-around good guy. I’m glad to have him in my family.



DELRAY BEACH, Fla. – A partially mummified baby was found wrapped in newspaper in a warehouse self-storage unit and is believed to have been born sometime in the 1950s, authorities said. Continue reading 8720 –

Zombie Astronaut is Featuring Ray Bradbury!


Tomorrow is Adam’s swim meet – should be interesting… Adam competing vs Larry’s School.


Dreamt last night about BHK and me being “gun runners” to south of the border… we were storing ensure and other high-vitamin products in the stock… the guns themselves didn’t work, but were easier to bribe past the border patrols rather than food for the hungry. at one point, I though t of making the guns themselves out of chocolate or some sort of dark-colored food, but that was nixed for dream-reasons I don’t recall. I remember clubbing one of the patrolmen with the butt of one of the mock-rifles and having a pinkish milkshake type substance come out… hopefully it was full of strawberry flavored protein shake.


More pics from the Paper Moon in Baltimore. decor was cute “pee-wee herman meets tim burton” painted kitsch at an angle, and the food was exceptionally good. (went on 1/17/07)

8698 –

I made it quite easily through the polar bear swim yesterday, though the bay was brisk – (between 40-45 degrees Fahrenheit, and most certainly colder than the air temp) it was misty and rainy, so some of the photos have a rather gray cast to ’em. BHK, Chris, Larry and Tina were all kind enough to come out to cheer me on, however, none went into the drink with me… I was hoping Adam might, but he was wiped out due to being the taxi driver for assorted lushes.

Pictures beneath the “brr!” – be warned, I’m a furry creature.

Brrr!

8697 – Hap-Pye New(t) Year! 2007

Something I post at the top of every new year, and I appreciate the words more with every additional trip around the sun.

Love is
is not rude,
it is not self seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices in truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.

-1 Corinthians 13:5&6

PYE!

Newt!

Newt didn’t make it to the countdown, apparently.

The boys like to wrestle, which worries BHK a smidgen, but I think they’ll be jim-dandy.


618 entries this year… lower content this time around, mostly due to my living life, and not having much time to report it. I haven’t had any time recently to read much LJ at all, though I have tried to poke a nose in here and there when I could. (975 in 2006, 716 in 2004) – one of my new years thoughts is to try to write at least 30 minutes a day in the journal, just to hone my skills.

We move into the bigger house on or about 1/15… once all the utilities and such have been activated. The big TV and some small amount of furniture is already over there, but we haven’t begun the big move in earnest as yet.

I’m going to miss our Tannenbaum… I’ve enjoyed the giant beastie in the living room the last month or so. When it goes, I figure it means we’ll be headed to the new place shortly thereafter.


Danny turns 45 tomorrow. weird thought. That means I’ll be 38 a month from then. The years seem to just fly.


Last night, we got together with the normal motley crew to dine on tacos, rodeo beans, assorted fixins and far too many holiday pastry-type goodies. We watched “Failure to Launch” until about 10 seconds of midnight, counted down, and then watched fireworks over the Chesapeake bay. After, we started to watch Prime, but got tuckered out due to it’s general suckitude. Chick flicks were remedied by today’s viewing of Buckaroo Bonzai, Kung Fu Hustle and Fierce Creatures
