owch, my eyes

So, here is a new toy that is somewhat interesting. We all love optical illusions, but I always am suspicious that these kinds of things may be doing some weird damage. Hmnn, won't let that stop me though - off I am to watch this repeatedly for the next four hours. It's like a trip without the drugs - weeeeee! Maybe afterwards I'll go spin around in the lawn until I fall down. Good times.

Buried


Here's Ernie uncovering his breakfast. He somehow has come to the conclusion that his food is only edible if he buries it first. What's that about?

Argh, the blinding flash


We were on the phone with Mum, happily cuddling away when Curt snuck up on us with the camera. Quickly we all averted our eyes except for Clovis. Will he ever be able to see again?!

Visiting


Aunt Patty swung thru Greensboro on her way from Arkansas back home to upstate NY. She stayed just a few days, but what a treat! You all thought that I could talk your ear off, but she really brings out the Serena chatter box. What fun! Here she is with the pups...

Make gardens, not war

I love the idea of secret little plantings going up in odd and fairly random places. Maybe I should start doing this around North Carolina!

Disenfranchised?

Feeling Disenfranchised? This old ditty from Radiohead should just about push you over the edge...

All my Love

Redbird music

Another great album that came out in the last couple of years was Redbird: http://www.younghunter.com/redbird.html
Definitely worth getting your hands on a copy. Unfortunately, they only offer clips of a few songs on their website & none of my favourites.
YouTube has a performance of 'Ships,' but it takes getting past the mouths moving in a slightly different time than the sound - a bit annoying: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lXPkxR6xzA
