You'll be missed...

Okay...I'll try and keep this as positive as I can. Although...it is a pretty sad story, but I thought that my part in this story showed how much I care about my wife and her feelings!

So the other day we found a pair of ducks hanging out in our backyard. Apparently our neighbors have been feeding them. Well over the weekend we that the misfortune of watching one get hit by a car right in front of our house.

Well...my wife and the animal lover that she is...was crushed and there were many tears shed. During the incident she asked me, "Is there anything you can do?"

What is a husband supposed to say to that? So I did the only thing I could think of...I went and grabbed a snow shovel and scooped the duck up, and in the rain on Saturday afternoon we had a funeral service for the duck.



You'll be missed...and to my wife...I love you.

Where's Waldo?

I might be a little behind on the trend, but there have been some very interesting things done to surprise users of Google Earth. Call them "Easter Eggs", "Trinkets", or whatever...they're fun little surprises that either we create, or nature does, that make using Google Earth a little more fun.

Well, today I ran across this website: "Where on Earth is Waldo?"

This site informed me that there is a lady in Vancouver, BC, Canada that has re-imagined the childhood book series on a much larger scale. She's created a large Waldo sized painting that she has put on the roof of her building, large enough to be seen using Google Earth.

So...I downloaded Google Earth and went a searching. The only evidence I had was this picture that was taken by a helicopter in Vancouver.
After about oh...15 minutes or so...don't tell me boss...I think I found him...well sort of. I have seemed to match the building...but there's no Waldo to be found. See...
Now this could be because 1 of 2 reasons...one...the building set up I found is remarkably similar but not exact to the helicopter picture, OR...the Google Earth image of the area I found is too old and doesn't show the most recent image.

You be the judge...what do you think...did I find the right area?

Educational Time Waster

Ever been sitting around at work or at home and wanted an educational time waster? Well search no further! I ran across this game on one of the many sites I check every day. It's called: "Questionaut"Now...the premise is pretty easy, but I can't share it with you because it would lose some of the excitement you'd get from figuring it all out and watching it all unfold.

Just head to the "Questionaut Website", wait for it to load (you need Flash), click Play, and go from there.

I can say that the art is really beautiful and the music is just as complimentary. It contains 8 educational levels and is so enjoyable I wish that it would continue on for hundreds more!

Enjoy!
