I’m heading to Nag’s Head, NC for a week.
Cannot wait to get out of here and spend some time with some great friends, witness a buddy getting married, and spend some time with my best gal.
Of course I’ll have the camera, so there will be lots of pics.
Bethany and I picked up a pumkin to carve. Figured it would be fun.
I kind of copied the design, but hey…a ghost is a ghost.
Enjoy.
I’ll document my “great quotes” list from the conference here:
“I have met the enemy, and he is us”
- Walt Kelly
“A democracy is a sheep and two wolves deciding on what to have for lunch. Freedom is a well armed sheep contesting the results of the decision.”
- Benjamin Franklin
“The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed.”
- Alexander Hamilton
The first was using to reference something technological. The other two were found in a couple techies’ email signatures.
I went to the Indy1500 Gun Show yesterday.
Didn’t come home with a gun, but came home with some throwing knives.
Why?…….Why not?
No one bought a gun, though they were very close.
I got to pick up and hold a few hundred guns.
I’ve pretty much narrowed down my choice.
I’ll either get a Walther P22, or Walther P99.
They both seem to fit the best in my hand when compared to MANY other types of guns.
Now if I could just win the lottery.
Camping. (Rain.
[I'm intentionally leaving the closing parenthesis off since it rained ALL weekend.]
We camped somewhere over by Monticello. It was a piece of land Chris’ Dad owns.
It was a good time. Lots of eating. Hotdogs, burgers, cookies, marshmallows, etc.
Oh yeah, can’t forget the 5 hour game of Risk. Then the “Battle of the Sexes”. [which was obviously written by a woman]
We woke up Sunday morning to rain. At 0615. It was early, but fun. We packed up, headed home, and ate IHOP. Yum.
Sunday was good. Formula1, IRL, and Champ Car. Simpsons, Family Guy, and American Dad.
What more could you ask for?
Even with the fiasco of this year, I REALLY want to get tickets to see the F1 USGP event next year.
I just leaned over to tie my shoes. When I was finished with the second, I had forgotten I had already tied the first.
I think my head is going to explode.

Apparently, “The neighbor’s cat in a garbage bag” isn’t an appropriate answer to:
Q: What can be found on the floor in your bedroom?
