    2005 The double Whammie!

    Yep! It’s been 50 years! Thomas Jefferson High School reunion is here! Boy
    won’t they be glad to see me? From recent questionaires…The
    results were surprising. Of 2,700 students, 2,400 graduated.
    Largest number in school history. 31.5% are dead, 28% can not
    be found 1.7% are in jail. Only 17.9 completed college. 41% had
    some college means 59% hoofed it on their own. Amazing 50%
    or better stayed married until death of spouse and 11% never
    married. 37% claimed lifetime earnings of 1.5 million dollars.
    ….which I am sure included G.G. Gale….my best and close buddy
    in school since the 5th grade. Me! . . . of course can’t complain!

    Oh, yes I can!….come to think of it…..I got married that year!
    June 30th, 1955. . . .to you know who!

    They even left a spot for you in the photo, Becky. :) The links here are 10 meg files so dailup need not apply. Sorry. I tried in the past to figure out the best compression to get them down to 56k viewable size but, for right now, these are just big AVI files right out of the camera. Click the links if you dare, or if you have trouble, you can right click and choose “save target as” then play them from your hard drive. Vid 1 Vid2 Vid 3

    Testing/Showing off the new BlueTooth phone. The phone allows my laptop to be online anywhere at semi-broadband speeds (150k/sec) without hooking up a cable. So I recorded a quick sample of Glenn and Kim playing and uploaded it all while sitting in a booth at LaTuna. Isn’t technology great?

    Aloha,

    We were skeptical but food cooked in it tastes as good as when cooked in the Jenn-Air. But it doesn’t dry anything out. It’s infrared so you don’t have to preheat and you don’t have to defrost. It browns really evenly, doesn’t heat up the kitchen and cooks in half the time. Cleans easy. Jimmie and I are shocked by how great it works. They’re about as much as a microwave but they’re a million times better. These guys have it for $110 but Thane has it for $99 with a free gadget to slice your fingers off with.

    Eighty feet of single wide heaven! We know you will all be jealous ;) . . .but she’s all ours. Here are a couple of photos of our view:

    That’s Western New Mexico University, about a mile away.

    We’ll catch some great sunsets!

    And here she is in all her glory:

    This is a small program (500k) that everyone will like. It’s a virus free/spyware free program, I’ve tested it and it’s coming off of our server space so I can guarantee you there’s no risk. Taylor tried anime names and it worked great. We tried pigs and microphones. Knowing that Hillary keeps lots of images of The Swindles on their site, I typed in The Swindles and one of the images it found was Mitch and Glenn playing together.

    Reuters says BitTorrent accounts for 35% of all traffic on the Internet now. I wonder if that’s true.

    Ringo Starr to Save the World in Cartoon Series
    Ringo says of Lee, “He had this idea of a musical superhero — what I like to think of as a reluctant superhero. . . . I’ll zoom in to save the world, or a damsel in distress, or a small village. Who knows where he’ll go?”

    I went with Evan’s class to the Capital and The Austin Museum of Art. Saw a great exhibit by Andy Goldsworthy.

    He colaborates with nature.
    Inspiring.

    This is one of my favorite shows. Evan asked me if the Dog Whisperer could come help our canine family get along. Lara’s is problably just as good (and much closer), but we wouldn’t get to be on TV.
