  2. Beware the Ick May 27, 2006

    No Folklife for me this weekend; instead, I spent all my free time in bed, battling the Plague. Meh. Not nearly as much fun.

  3. Upcoming Photothingies May 24, 2006

    After a few days of grumbling and plotting devious ways of kicking my manager (severely, repeatedly, in the shin), my schedule has been reworked so that there are no more conflicts. So. Upcoming things where I will be wandering around, camera in hand….

  7. Is Pixar a ‘boys only’ club? May 20, 2006

    Honestly, I’d never even thought about this until Prairie brought it up after we watched one of the trailers for Cars, when its predominantly male-centric theme got her started thinking about the rest of Pixar’s oevure. Just where are the girls in Pixar films?

  8. Let’s Go Fly A Kite May 19, 2006

    I took advantage of yesterday’s gorgeous weather to stop by Carkeek Park. This guy was practicing with a mid-size kite — larger than normal, but not large enough to go kite surfing with. Lots of fun to watch!

  9. Of abnormal psychology and meeting women May 18, 2006

    I met my girlfriend because the chat name I was using declared that I was sexually aroused by having intercourse with the flaming corpse of an underaged puppy.

  12. Wisteria Spirals May 15, 2006

    Until I looked at them from this angle, I never realized that the flowers grew in a spiral around the central stem.

  13. First Time in Five Years May 15, 2006

    Every few years I actually get up the nerve to see just how goofy I look without the beard. The last time was five years ago (and no photos exist of that round), so I figured it was finally time to give it another shot.

  17. Black and White (But Not Really) May 11, 2006

    Not really a black and white photo, but it kind of looks like it. How’s that for a description?

  19. Dangerous Playgrounds Still Exist! May 8, 2006

    A jungle gym with lots of climbing bits, ropes, and various ways to clamber around on (and fall off of) it, including a marvelous slide with no rails that tips to one side. A…spinny thing…that had me so dizzy I could barely stand up. It was marvelous!

  20. NyQuil Jello? May 8, 2006

    One dessert trick Prairie and I have been playing with for the past few months is using soda instead of water to make Jello. Different combinations of flavors are possible, and the carbonation makes the Jello ‘fizz’ on your tongue when you eat it.

  22. Camera Vision May 7, 2006

    Camera vision is like that, you stop thinking about the shot and just take it. And as it was once said to me, I now say say it to you. You have Camera vision. And it shows.
