About a month ago, I got my first DSLR - a Canon, naturally. I haven't the foggiest idea how to use it (having only received manuals in Spanish), but trial-and-error is usually my method anyway. So when a lovely desert storm rolled in on a Friday afternoon, I couldn't resist the opportunity to test out my new toy and attempt to capture a lightning bolt while the sun set. I actually thought I

Rubber Duck, one of three orphans to survive a traffic accident that claimed the life of their mother, has died. Rubber was 5-days-old. Rubber was found by his caretaker Saturday morning. Investigators concluded, based on the position of the body and family interviews, Rubber had most likey been jumping against a wall in an attempt to scale it (a favorite pasttime) and tumbled backwards onto the

Well the little orphans survived their first night so I figured I'd whip up a quick coop so they could be outside for a few hours.This decision also afforded me the excuse to head to the hardware store. Hee hee.So I pick up 25' of 36" high chicken wire, some rebar tie and a pair of dikes (I needed a new pair anyway). My plan was to make a circular coop that I could top with a trash can lid (many

Most nights, I come home from my 11, 12 hour day miserable, only to crack open this god-awful laptop immediately after dinner and working working working until I pull myself away only to sleep and start this slave-cycle all over again. Tonight, I had a welcome change in routine......for Leo and I have become foster parents to three orphan ducklings:How did we come to adopt waterfowl in the desert

Intro: I've been a big fan of CamelBak products for a long time now. Honestly, they are the Gold Standard for functionality and design when it comes down to hydration packs and bags. However, a few things have started to stick in my craw regarding their products. 1: They used to be USA made...no more. 2: They used to be inexpensive ... no more.CamelBak is, to their credit, exploiting their brand

What my love said below. Anyone know how to train a dog to be a ringbearer?

Fine, I'll finally come out and say it. I've been putting this off for weeks, months even, trying to figure out the perfect way to do this with the right amount of snarkiness, but I'm done thinking about it.Here goes...Leo and I are getting married. (Yeah. No, I'm not pregnant.) Sometime... probably in 2010? Actually, we're having a Shinto wedding in Japan in November, but I don't know when we're
