You almost have to feel sorry for him…

1004bomb-autosized141.jpgSaw this on Engadget. According to the AZCentral Article:

An Army sergeant based at Fort Huachuca walked into a bank Monday, his mouth covered in duct tape, and presented a note saying he had a bomb in his mouth, police said.
(snip)
A bomb squad robot removed the tape. Robinson said once the tape was taken off, Lewis spat out an unidentified object, which was not an explosive device.

Having a Remote Controlled Robot stick a Camera in his mouth had to be, um, Different. See here. After they cuffed him, he couldn’t say “No, really, I don’t have a bomb!”.

Really Good Tip site..

gundamcraft-01.jpgOne of my hobbies is assembling and painting plastic Models based on Japanese Anime. In the last year I’ve not had the time to make any kits, but I have several that is queued up to assemble and detail.

Recently, I came across the Gundamcraft website which has Tutorial videos for assembling, airbrushing and detail the models.

It’s all in Korean (I think) but the video has good examples of assembling and airbrushing that I found useful.

See Here.

For a good shop to buy Models and whatnot: Image Anime

Different but true…

inside1-cage.jpgOk, first off, I like Nicolas Cage. I think he’s a really good actor and I will see a bad movie if he’s in it. (None come to mind. I’ve liked everyone I’ve seen…)

I really think it’s great that he and his wife just had a Baby and wish only the best for all three of them.

That being said:
The Child’s Name is Kal-el Coppola Cage.

Kal-El as in Superman.
No pressure, kid.

Best wishes to the Family.

Another Image from Lake Minnewaska

One of the Nice things about a Nikon D70s is that it starts up in 2 tenths of a second and can fire 3 shots per second. I got 4 shots in before I got this one.

When the flash went off, she ran for it.

Images from Lake Minnewaska

We had a nice Hike (Ok, a 9 1/2 mile walk…) Saturday at Lake Minnewaska in NewPpaltz. It was a great day for a really long walk with me and 30 or so friends.

One nice thing about a Digital Camera is: Keep taking pictures. Of the 260 or so shots I took, 25 are No good but unlike Film, there aren’t any wasted photos.

What is Harry thinking?

Probably he’s thinking “Why won’t he go away?”

Movable Type 3.2

movable_type_logo-01.gifPrior to Movable Type 3.2 I was deluged with Comment and trackback spam. Now, 3.2 is working so well, I didn’t know how well until I looked at the junk Comments and Junk Trackbacks!

Anyone using a previous version should upgrade for this Very reason!

Chandelier

Just goofing around with my Camera and took a photo of the chandelier in our dinning room.

No Pictures!

When we were hiking at Lake Minnewaska, a friend of mine tried to block her photo with her hat. I liked how it looked!
