Here is the first "picture" of Noah Douglas Wines. This is the ultrasound scan taken a few days ago. Congrats Suzi & Chuck and of course there will be lots more pictures in the future. For better detail go to Flickr to see the original.
Chris sent me an email this morning with pictures they took at Universal yesterday. This picture has a little story with it. Just as Spidey came up to Max for the photo-op Max said "I have waited my whole life to meet you." Chris said he thought Spidey was impressed as he hung out with Max longer than normal. As usual the pictures are available at Flickr.
All your hard work and perseverance finally paid off Chuck. Congratulations on becoming the new Store Manager at Albany!
Check out this website where organizers want your help in determining the future of Firefly. Be sure and take a minute to fill out the short survey.
Chris, Jolene, Jake & Max are spending the week at Disneyland. Chris is sending me some pictures each day. Here is the Flickr link for day 1 and day 2.
Had a great time yesterday watching Seattle completely outclass Carolina. Should be a great game in 2 weeks against Pittsburgh. I'm thinking Super Bowl party time!
Really looking forward to the May 19th release of this movie. It will be starring Tom Hanks and is being directed by Ron Howard. I just finished the book by Dan Brown and it was excellent. Anyone in the family who hasn't read it and would like to borrow it is welcome to.
One day it will happen to you. Your computer will not boot up, your hard drive is toast and all your documents are lost. Pictures, resumes, tax returns, music, all the data you ever created is gone.
The Stardust sample return capsule was transported by helicopter from its landing site at the U.S. Air Force Utah Test and Training Range. This image shows the return capsule inside a protective covering. The capsule, which landed at 2:10 a.m. Pacific time (3:10 a.m. Mountain time), contains cometary and interstellar samples gathered by the Stardust spacecraft.
Just got an exciting phone call from Chuck & Suzi, it's a boy! The strong male domination is alive and well on this side of the Wines Family. Congratulations Suzi & Chuck. Our new addition is expected on June 1st.
St. Augustine, a volcano located about 300 miles SW of Anchorage has been rumbling and spewing steam and ash. Showing all the signs of a possible eruption. The Alaska Volcano Observatory has 2 live web cams that refresh every 5 minutes and 30 minutes respectively. There is also a lot of seismic data available as well. This picture is from yesterday. Check out the live images @ http://www.avo.alaska.edu/activity/Augustine.php ...
In the early morning hours of January 15, 2006, the Stardust mission returns to Earth after a 4.63 billion kilometer (2.88 billion mile) round-trip journey carrying a precious cargo of cometary and interstellar dust particles. Scientists believe Stardust's cargo will help provide answers to fundamental questions about the origins of the solar system.
I have been nagging Char to watch the Firefly series that I got for a Xmas present. Finally got her to sit down and watch the pilot epsiode ( 2 hrs).
Oregon fell to 12th in the final AP and USA Today polls. Complete and utter BS if you ask me.
Just thought I would share this very cool photo of the Space Shuttle at the moment it broke the sound barrier. I don't know which launch this was but it's still cool.
Hated going back to work today after 11 days of laying around the house, watching movies, enjoying everyones company and playing Star Wars Galaxies. The only bright spot was opening my desk calendar that Chuck got me for Christmas. It is a "Get Fuzzy" variety. If you aren't familiar with this daily cartoon check out your newspaper and start reading it. Very funny stuff, basically a cat with an attitude like Chuck's. The cats name in the strip is "Bucky Cat" although I was always think it should be "Chucky Cat".
