    for New Years. Have fun but stay safe if you’re going out tonight. Don’t worry about us, we’re leaving right now which is way before the drunks come out and then coming back early tomorrow. Our cell phones will work so call us if you need us.

    Happy New Year!

    * Compact Calendar. This prints a whole year in a narrow strip of paper that will fold up and go in your wallet. * A really well done online game called Fancy Pants. Amazing what games are free on the Internet now. * What is Second Life? This thing is going crazy on the Internet. Looks like The Simms. * Might come in handy: How to draw a frog * Esty, buy and sell handmade things. * Good liar, good teacher. * Somebody defined “Woodzie“, way back in Feb., right before we had our last one. We could have done so much better, we need to start defining our own terms. * And to end with a good one, “Theo Jansen who hopes, someday, that his creations can be set loose in the winds of the world to live lives of their own.”

    I was restless last night and couldn’t sleep so I was playing around with WordPress plugins and installed this one. It takes it a moment after each page refresh to get it’s bearings but Snap will show a screen capture of any outside website that a link on our blog leads to. Like in the post below, if you mouseover the link to “moon”, you’ll see it’s to the crazy flash animation and can turn your speakers down before you hit it. Priceless. :)

    an unusual top 10 list

    Posted by: John

    This last weekend of the year is a good time to post top 10 lists. Here’s 2006’s top 10 pictures from space. Number 9 is an eclipsing moon.

    That guy lives on the beach and his hobby seems to be just hanging out taking pictures of the moon. All in the top 10 are good but #1 way down at the bottom could be the most amazing photo you’ll ever see.

    and here’s Snake Farm. Good old Ray Wylie’s settled into a wild video style. He must represent the entire VooDoo element up there in Wimberley. If he ever runs for a seat on the school board one of these might show up as the background in an attack ad. :)

    quite a while back we started a Whippleworld account on del.icio.us. Here’s the info from 2005. Several people have contributed links and I installed a plugin today that will display an active link to the most recent 15 contributions. You can glance over and see it under the Live ShoutBox. It doesn’t look very good but the idea is good, it could be our

    he’s about ready to kill me but you gotta make one of these flash animations, it only takes a minute. His Rolling Stones beanie looks great under an elf’s hat. We didn’t try calling in and recording a voice but that could take it over the top. Happy Holidays!
