Some pix from the planetarium
I took my 8-year old daughter to the Planetarium today …. a Daddy and Gabrielle day.
It was a beautiful day and I took a couple of snaps …
What I want for Christmas
Oh how I wish everyone in my life would go for this:
Fat chance, of course …. I told my daughter about this after reading about it in the Georgia Strait or something like that and she, in her infinite 8-year old wisdom, said “That’s boring!”
But nice try, daddy.
2 weeks off for Christmas
Wow - I now have 2 weeks off for Christmas.

I’m looking forward to having some time to put in on personal projects!

Apple is now accepting Paypal. This is good for users of Paypal, and it’s good for Paypal, but it is great for Apple.

My TV B-Gone Arrived
Åhhh … the fun I will have now!

However, in the limited time I have …. here’s the list.
