Fun with Photo Booth

I've been playing with my snazzy new computer and found Photo Booth. It's like your own private photo booth, crazy.

Recent thoughts:

Poole's was a great time but it might not make it into the rotation.

Humble Pie is great as usual.

I'm glad fall has arrived.

Michigan beat Wisconsin.

I'm looking forward to my trip to Michigan this weekend. Kleinstack is also making the trip. Wedding and Abigail's baptism are on the social docket.

Did I leave the iron on?

I officially became part of the (CHLC) coffee house laptop crowd today. I met Chris and Lori for coffee at Helios. I don't feel different but I don't feel as pure.

Area Man Reads At A Third Grade Level

Today I read to Raven's 3rd grade class. I went with Skippyjon Jones and Mummy Trouble. It's a personal favorite of Miss Raven. She prefers that I read Skippyjon's parts with a Spanish accent. It does add a bit of texture. I gotta be honest, my Spanish accent isn't that great.

I had a big day on the technology front. I transfered all the junk from my iMac to my brand new Macbook Pro. Nothing could prepare you for the new heights of technological prowess here in c6. This was a birthday gift from the Kleinstacks.

This past Saturday was the first day of my next 50 years. Finche's, Pooles and Humble Pie were the stops Saturday celebrating my day. I couldn't lose Kim Chris and Lori. A quality group of great people were in attendance. It was a great day.

It's cold tonight. I am so glad fall has finally arrived. Lori and I are going to a wedding in Michigan next weekend. Hopefully the leaves will be in full fall colors there.

Thoughts on the conventions

Presidential Election: The difference between watching the opening ceremonies last week's Democratic Convention and tonight with the Republican Convention is like watching a football game V. watching the food line at K&W. I was watching the GOP party tonight and apparently only AARP members were invited. Only one black guy made it. This years choice isn't like the old adage of picking between the lesser of two evils. These are two solid candidates, two good people but the spirit of the two is vastly different both of the individuals but also of their campaigns. The recent window dressing by McCain isn't going to change that.
