2024 East Coast Map!

My parents are going South… and I was looking up weather reports for them and came across these cool maps:
Eastern Infared
East IR color
ATL Hurricane
Water Vapour color
Hemisphere IR
Update: Wow…Still using the same URL after a decade. (Dec. 2013) Images are still there in 2024 but looks like they are no longer updated...new maps still available.

Friday Five! with laser eyes!

1. As a child, who was your favorite superhero/heroine? Why?
Wonder Woman. Why? Wonder Bra and Batman was pretty cool.

2. What was one thing you always wanted as a child but never got?
Without question: A drum set. Which I’m still planning on getting – even if I’m 35 before I do.

3. What’s the furthest from home you’ve been?
Vancouver, B.C. about 4500km… I drove.

4. What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to learn but haven’t yet?
Drums. See #2. 🙂

5. What are your plans for the weekend?
Might be playing a game (such as Axis and Allies) with some of my buddies. Getting into the Carlsberg years I guess. Ho-Hum.

Update: got my drums a few years back. Was likely 40 when I got them. 🙂 (Dec. 2013)

Natural Born Killers

“You want to hear the story too don’t you old man… O.K. (continues) She came upon a poisonous snake frozen in the snow. She took the snake home with her. She put the frozen snake on her favorite blanket by the warm fire. She fed it and nursed it back to health. One day she picked the snake up and it bit her on the cheek. As she lay dying she asked the snake, I loved you, why have you done this to me? The snake answered, “look bitch, you knew I was a snake.”

Ahh yes. For whatever reason I never did see this film when it was released. Nasty but interesting on many levels…
