See some satellite fotos of the tsunami.

This site has pictures of the tidal wave just after it hit Sri Lanka.
If that doesn't work, this should be the before and after pictures.

Yep, just in time for your after christmas money.

Back in the 'Ville

Have a hockey game tonight. --end of transmission--

Cool fish.

This is a way cool screensaver. Aquarium version 2.0 (and/or the one with a clock on a rock). It has a demo that is quite cool itself. If you like it, then you can buy it.
They swim like real fishies and also can change the lighting and the bubbles.
Go here for a screenshot.

9 out of 10 people surveyed

Really like this picture of baby William.

We are hunting down the 10th person and going to beat them a new paradigm.

Who needs On-Star

You can just get this device peck on your car window in your "secret way" and poof... it will unlock. Only $99 austrailian dollars. Wonder if it just locks your car in the northern hemisphere rather than unlock... that wouldn't be very useful.

We are at Willy's house

Willy loves to blog. So much so that he is somewhere sleeping at the moment i think.

Doodle and hear noise.

This page will let you doodle a picture and turn it into sound. (Java applet). Try pushing the clear button and then drawing some white lines around on the screen. Down the page some are some pictures to load and listen to as well as other things you can do with it.

Woof woof the wire is there.

Assist-o-dog to the rescue. Maggie helps pull wires underground. Next step, a job from Qwest. Perhaps later will assist in antique radio collecting also.

Shed tales

Got enough stuff in the freshly camoflauged poor little shed to possibly get M's car in the garage. Still work to do in the garage to make that happen, but I can see parts of the concrete floor at the moment in spots.
p.s. another hockey game today at 5:30 for all those fans that read the blog.

Go fly a balloon

If you are feeling the need to strap on a bunch of helium balloons and go for a ride, you might want to read this guy's website first.
