Marina
Category: sailing
Seeing as (e:leetee) and (e:paul) have both written about the Marina this week, I wanted to add my own pictures from last night.

my captain, showboating in the laser :)

my dear puppy, demonstrating how easy it is to walk around our deck.

my dog eats ropes. she also falls in lakes, but she has her own life preserver. Yes I love my dog, what of it?

on the dock.

an after sunset view, facing west.
See all the sailboats? If you go out in a motorchoker, and hear a dog barking at you, that's my puppy. We've already trained her to bark and growl when the words "george bush" or "dick cheney" are spoken; now she's starting to bark when hearing the roar of a speedboat engine too.

hehe, you bring out the sailor-snob in me. But- what's a motorchoker? But yeah people like to get all 'oh yeah I have a boat' and I'm like "oh really? cool" and then when they say "it's a blah blah blah powerboat" I totally tune out and lose interest. Sailboats are where it's at baby! (instead of ballet/karate as kids, we all took sailing lessons, and we would take the lasers out for "turtle drills". It was fun.)

She hates all politicians equally, though the prez and VP consistently get her to growl ferociously.
John Kerry, Joe Lieberman and to my surprise, Scooter Libby also get her going.

Darn, I guess I can't show you my hand signed pictures of the Prez and the VP with your dog around. :(

New Site
Category: web
Not that my identity has ever been too mysterious on here, but with my new married name has come a new, super web site

Thanks to Paul's API system, I can pull in content from my journal here directly to my site. For those of you who have other web domains and a willingness to muck around with some PHP, it's a great way to spruce up your site.

Nice site- v classy. I like the layout.

Also, I love playing Internet bingo games from home!

I like your what I want to learn section on the site. I should integrate somethign like that into estrip. Might be interesting to have a what I want to learn, and what I am capable of teaching section. Maybe then people can match up. Or even in groups.
paul - 06/14/06 09:54
You site looks great, I am glad to see that someone uses the API. I am thinking about developing a clientside javascript version, so that more people can use it.
chico - 06/14/06 09:51
Beautful web site (e:kara)... I'm jealous. ;-)

The Freshmaker
Ever wondered what happens when you combine Diet Coke and Mentos?


In other news, we have our sailboat set up in our slip. We had a very nice sail out past the breakwall on Sunday night with some good friends, and another last night, just taking it out for a spin with the jib sail.
Abby gets nervous walking on the docks, but seems very much at ease when on the boat. She has a tendancy to climb up in my lap while I'm at the tiller.
kara - 06/06/06 22:10
Paul - someone has already thought of that, and this was the result. :::link:::
paul - 06/06/06 22:01
What would happen if this occurred in your gut? What if you eat mentod and drink diet pepsi?
kara - 06/06/06 21:22
abby's my awesome dog. :::link:::
lilho - 06/06/06 17:42
