downtown


jim has a good post over on his site about election material being left in the mailbox. not 'official' election material that was sent through the USPS and paid postage on - nope, this was hand delivered photo-copied pages left in the mailbox. Click over and take a look...

i think the 'scare tactics' make me want to vote against the ordinance.

Just for spite. =)

urban dare 2011


jim and i participated in the Urban Dare 2011 race through Dallas today, and it was HOT! =)

one of the tasks was to get a couple to recreate the famous kiss scene from world war II - taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt.

pretty close to the original! the couple posing for us were taking part in their own scavenger hunt - the Bachendorf's Diamond Dash Dallas...

one more week!


next week, at this time, i'll be in vegas!!

we'll be staying right on Fremont Street in the old downtown area - and the new attraction is a zipline that goes right under the 'fremont st experience' light display that occurs periodically throughout the night!

LOVE VEGAS!! =)

scary squirrel


squirrels usually look so cute, but this one seemed to have an attitude. i think i see a tooth!

and honestly, if it had ran towards me I would've screamed and ran away. lol

it's going to be a long political season...

end of an era


with the end of the weekend came a late-night announcement from the White House that Osama Bin Laden is dead!

hard to believe we're 4 months away from the 10 year anniversary of 9-11...
