  • We are WIRED

    The ATT guy who came out when we moved in several years ago was the same one who showed up this morning. I was thinking about him last night, hoping it wouldn’t be the same guy, because he was huge, tall tall tall and football player muscular broad, he makes regular chairs look like they’re…

  • The Results

    This post is just between me and the few people who visit here so don’t be surprised if I move it over to “private” and thus take it down after it’s been up a couple of days. Got H.o.p.’s standardized scores back. He did basically what I expected him to do.

  • Window on Antares

    Fernbank Observatory, 2007 Aug 16 Lightbox enlargement At left is the astronomer who gave the presentation at the planetarium and then was the sky guide at the observatory.

  • Down Time

    My sites are on Dreamhost. Which used to be great (I’ve been with them for years) but is now sometimes a true pain in the ass. There was a major outage yesterday (took down my sites for hours) and one couldn’t even reach their status blog. It’s now back online though and I see there…

    Today school starts again in our area. We don’t follow a strict school schedule and are very eclectic in our homeschooling but…it’s time to think of something new to do around here. Like Tai Chi and Qigong! Won’t this be like the blind leading the blind. Not having funds for classes, around twelve years ago…
