Little Tombstone
Well here’s an interesting piece of French animation. I really like the gritty look of the film and the attention to sometimes bizarre details (e.g. the fly in the barrel). Overall I consider this really well done and a pretty cool find. LITTLE TOMBSTONE – ESMA 2011 from Little Tombstone on Vimeo.

Tub Plug
Man, does it suck when the bathtub drain gets clogged. (And yes, I know that I need a new shower caddy.)

Typical Fox News
Normally I don’t like talking about politics. When stating opinions you are either preaching to the choir or infuriating the opposition. Rarely do you ever change a person’s view. Each side knows that they are absolutely correct. This post is not exactly about politics, but here is a perfect example of why I can’t stand …

Enhanced SOTU
Watched the President’s State of the Union address tonight. Without getting into any actual political opining, the most amazing thing for me was that I watched it streaming live on my computer, not on network TV, with the address being enhanced with support graphics. Much like watching a business presentation. And seeing Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords …

Being Social At SeaWorld
Went for a regular Tuesday walk at SeaWorld with my mom today and ran into some of the old Terrific Tuesday elderly walking group. We stopped and chatted a while about the efforts my mom and I are making to bring back the group in some form. At the end of our day we also …

George And Anna’s House
Visited the Marston House Museum and Gardens with some family and friends for my very first time today. We spent a little time in the formal gardens, which didn’t quite live up to my expectations, before entering the residence. While the exterior of this turn-of-the-century craftsman-style home seemed a bit dilapidated and run-down in many areas, the …

Shock Waves
Since I did so many touristy things this past week, and took so many pictures, that today I spent almost the entire day working on some of those recent photos so I could start adding them to my text-only posts. So for today’s entry I will just link to one of the coolest videos I …

Seaport By The Bay
For my final weekday-long hometown tourist adventure I took my mom down to Seaport Village and the Embarcadero by the San Diego Bay to walk around a bit on yet another perfect, sunny, SoCal kind of a day. We spent some time out at the end of the large concrete pier before stopping to watch …

It’s Been Too Long
It’s been way too long since I signed up for another online social service so I was quite pleased today when my beta invites to TWO services were activated. One was for Twylah, which is a newsreader type aggregator for my Twitter account, and the other is Schemer from Google, which is a life to-do …

Zoo For The Finish
Ended my Balboa Park tourist day with a hop over to the San Diego Zoo for a quick twenty minute visit. Walked in, took just a few pictures, picked up a Snickers for a growling stomach relieving pick-me-up and then sat down to snack and watch the flamingos just inside the entrance. That was it. …

Starting With SDNHM
Had a really good day today, which started with a couple of hours spent at the San Diego Natural History Museum. The main reason for my visit was to watch Sharks 3D, the final 3D movie they have that I needed to see. While some of the shots were truly incredible, especially in 3D, most …

New Day In Old Town
Walked around for about an hour in Old Town here in San Diego listening to my iPod and taking pictures before meeting up with my great friends Sylvia and Lannie for lunch at the Old Town Mexican Café. We chatted, reminisced and caught up with what’s been going on in our lives lately while enjoying some terrific Mexican …
