importing comments really stinks. looks like i'm going to have to rewrite my whole script in php. i feel like just quitting.

i just smoked stoogies with some work homies. pretty good smoke, but it's been like five years since i've smoked a whole cigar myself. whew...

originally i just uploaded all my blog photos into flickr as is, but since then, i realized that i'd rather upload larger sizes of many of these photos, so i deleted all the pre-flickr photos to be editted, uploaded, tagged, setted(?), and back-linked on some future date. everything except ty because sara randomly commented on that one, haha.oh, as a side benefit, my tags are now accurate.

apparently the manufacturers of my hula girl somehow did not consider a dashboard placement. the excessive heat caused the glue to melt, and her skirt dropped (inappropriate photo at my flickr account)!

on my way into work my car rolled over...to 100000 miles! in all my years of car ownership, i've never had this happen, i've always gotten a car just passed 100k, or it died/was totaled before. right when it happened there were no stopping anytime signs, so i pulled over at the first spot wide enough. i've been watching this coming since 99000, so i've been planning the perfect picture to take

as hot shards of glass flew across the kitchen toward my wife and son, not a single one hurt them. this piece here landed on a cd case sitting on the counter, becoming one with the case and the insert card below (i had to tear it free). God protected my family today.

i started tracking the music i listen to at work on june 28, 2005, but was waiting to post the link to my stats page until the ramones were at a respectable possition naturally. the only serious skewing on this is that because i listen to albums, artists who put more tracks on their albums will naturally appear higher. last week the ramones moved up to #2, but it will be a long time before they

before the big shamu show, seaworld did something really cool. they had all member of the armed forces and their families stand, then we gave them a big round of applause. i loved that, and it felt really good to do.i don't like war. i've disagreed with every war military action we've gotten ourselves into in my lifetime. i'm pretty sure i disagree with the very concept of war. all that

is it because they do it all the time? if I started spitting all the time, would my spit become not-gross?

went to sleep wanting to go to the wild animal park, woke up deciding seaworld would be funner. i've never been to either. sea world was great! beer, shamu, sea lions, dolphins, penguins, atlantis (just me), beer, skytower... i liked the dolphins best, which is odd because i think dolphins are pretty creapy. journey to atlantis was the best themed ride i've seen outside of disneyland. very

we've been planning on going to disneyland tomorrow for my birthday. this evening we realized we forgot the passes. while consulting the dland site to figure out what to do, i noticed that tomorrow is a blackout day! we decide the wild animal park would be a fun substitute. reservations cancel, hotels full, and a miracle move by elaine lands us a swank room!

as i rounded the corner, i glanced in my rear view mirror and saw the biggest, most brilliant rainbow ever. it was diving straight into the ocean and i knew i needed a photo. alas, by the time i made it to a spot where i could safely turn around on wet pch, the rainbow was long gone.heading home again, i took this photo instead:

i haven't riden--rode? rided? i haven't gone for a bike ride since i got puke sick. i should probably do that again. i'm doing pretty good anyways...bypassing jaredb in the race for about a day before he updated his stats. i guess that kicked off a trend because magically dan and dave are passed me too. i only need to take off another pound to launch past all three, though. heh heh...

quinn never stops eating. at meals, he eats more than johanna. it's weird, but somehow makes sense.
