I am not a Lady Gaga fan, but I am a big Weird Al Yankovic fan, and I really like this new song parody of her.

Back To The Butterflies
Spent a few hours at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park with the Holden family. Went to walk around in general, but to see the Butterfly Jungle exhibit in particular. Bought me a bright yellow SpongeBob t-shirt first. Butterflies loved it.

Tina And Jewel
Tina and Jewel, two Asian elephants that were rescued in Texas and temporarily brought to the San Diego Zoo, have since moved up the road to the L.A. Zoo. Here’s a really cute video of them playing in a waterfall at their new home.

Fun Learning Game
Played an online game developed for the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Impressed at how much effort went into making this game interactive and fun. Plus it just looks really good.

Beautiful Hooded Oriole
While shooting photos of a family of seven squirrels in the backyard today, this amazingly colorful bird landed on one of our plumeria plants. After searching online to try and identify it, I finally found a site that helped me identify it as a male Hooded Oriole.

She Noticed Me Again!
A couple of days ago I added some of my posted photos into the MostlyPhoto group on Flickr and today the group’s admin Lisa Bettany (of Mostly Lisa) commented (however briefly) on two of my shots (photo 1 / photo 2). The really bizarre coincidence part is that she commented while I was watching her video podcast.

Walk At Seaport Village
Met Sylvia down at Seaport Village on this cloudy day and we had a nice walk with the dogs. Even stopped for a couple of cookies.

Post 666
Thought it only appropriate that for my 666th post I make it about the devil, in whom I do not believe. Man can be pretty evil on his own. He really doesn’t need any help.
I present the lyrics to the song Demonic Incarnate by the group Incantation.
Trembling diabolic possession
Of the now extracted, dreary soul.
Chaotic inhibition, eternal visions of blasphemy real.
Ancient tongues
Recite northward
Infernal praise
As thunderous tides enshroud
Apocalyptic threshold
Demons in my flesh
I am now reborn…

Tangled Soundtrack Is Finally Mine
Purchased the Tangled soundtrack from iTunes instead of Amazon because of the higher sound quality and the digital songbook which turned out to be pretty cool.

First Ever Tweet-Up At The Safari Park
Went to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park with my mom for their first ever Tweet-up. Today’s theme was Butterfly Jungle. I bought a nice purple Looney Toons t-shirt with nine colorful character faces yesterday just for this occasion. My mom wore an old yellow shirt with my nephew’s picture on it. She had at least a dozen butterflies land on her. I had none. I knew I should have bought the bright yellow SpongeBob t-shirt instead.

Seaport Village Lunch
Met up with Christina and her mom for lunch and a walkabout at Seaport Village after a particularly good oncology follow-up visit for Christina.
