The Titanic And A Crystal Skull
Met my friend Lannie and her kids at the San Diego Natural History Museum in Balboa Park to see “Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition.” Even though photography was not allowed I enjoyed it immensely. They took great effort to add as many stories to the artifacts as they could, to make the presentation a lot more personally relatable …

Fun And Frustration
To the delight of all us Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie fans, here is the first of five segments of a reunion documentary which aired in 2010. The two friends were brought back together on camera for the first time fifteen years after their final taping of “A Bit of Fry and Laurie.” The fun …

Palm Transplant
It took three days, but I finally got our two large, pot-busting palm trees (which my mom grew from seeds) transplanted into their final resting places in our backyard. Started by digging two holes halfway, filling them with water to loosen up the dirt, and then letting them soak overnight. Next day, after I dug, …

Mr. & Mrs. Mourningdove
I was able to stealthily capture a couple of images of the two mourning doves that are starting to nest outside my bathroom window. They made many trips back and forth to pick up whatever they felt would make comfortable bedding for their soon-to-be offspring. It always amazes me how animals just know how to …

The New iPad
Watched some live blogging and podcasting about this morning’s Apple announcement of their new iPad, conveniently called the new iPad. I had four browser windows open simultaneously, one with TWiT doing their live commentary coverage, and three others from MacWorld, Engadget and The Verge, all of which were doing an amazing job live blogging the …

My Tweet Value
So I came across this website called SNPros that puts a dollar value to Twitter accounts. Obviously I was curious to see what mine was worth so I input my Twitter handle and waited a few seconds while it did its appraisally thing. Came back with a respectable $54.80. Not too bad, I thought. Then …

Same Gopher, New Hole
While gardening today (and by gardening I mean back-breaking, glistening-muscular-Fabio-torso preparation for a big, double palm tree replanting tomorrow or Wednesday) I was revisited by my old friend, the gopher. He didn’t stick around as long this time, but I was able to get close enough to get two shots. This is the better one. …

Hungarian Phrase Book
On days when not much happens, I can always count on Monty Python to help me post something worth watching.

8: A Play About The Fight For Marriage Equality
Tonight, by pure happenstance, I came across a play called “8” that was performed and streamed live on YouTube and presented by the American Foundation for Equal Rights. From their website: “George Clooney, Martin Sheen and Jane Lynch join an all-star cast for a one-night-only benefit reading of “8,” the new play by Academy-award winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black …

Possible Return Of An Old Friend
Today I noticed that a Turtle Dove was sitting in the hanging flower pot outside my bathroom window. I’d like to think that she’s either the vigilant mother who nested there last year, or possibly one of her offspring all done growed up. She didn’t fly away when I carefully got close enough to get …

Pizza, Cookies And Hugo
Had an intimate chat-with-lunch gathering at the Tapias with both Rodrigo and Sylvia, as well as with Randy who braved the drive down from Orange County just to hang out with us. Our gathering began with picking up a deliciously large combo pizza from the newly remodeled outdoor food area of a local Costco and …

It’s Calendar Changing Day For March
The new images for me to enjoy every day for the rest of this month. Except for when I’ll be house-sitting somewhere else, of course. Then I’ll just have to refer to this blog post.

Aquatic Museums, Above And Below Sea Level
For the final day of half-price Museum Month 2012 I decided to finally visit our Maritime Museum of San Diego down by the bay. I thought this would take between two and three hours so I could maybe do one more small museum later. Seven hours and 525 photos later, I was ready to go …

37 Acre Oxygen Factory
Visited the San Diego Botanical Garden in Encinitas today with my mom and my sister. Over 3,000 plants and trees covering 37 acres produce more than enough oxygen to help energize a person to walk the four miles of trails through gardens with authentic species from around the world including Australia, Africa, Central America, Mexico, …
