Reusable shopping bags

We decided it was time to break down and buy the reusable wegman's
bags. They are $.99 per bag and we got 8. Now to see if we can
remember to bring them each time.

We keep them in the trunk of our car. When we walk through the parking lot to the store we see others with their bags and then we remember to turn back and get ours.

(e:Libertad), I've never had anyone wrap things in plastic and put them in our bag. How funny.

Don't you think the woman in the background looks really anxious?? I wonder why...

libertad - 10/25/08 19:56
Wait and see how often the cashiers will wrap things you are buying in plastic bags and then put in the reusable bag. It happens to me almost every time I go.

Fatty Asshole, Carny Teen Transfer
Category: science

I am working on the new surebert toolkit while (e:terry) listens to his BioChemsitry class online. I swear it sounds like she keeps talking about a "fatty asshole, carny teen" but I think it is something else.

I have been working on the toolkit for like four days now. I think today is the last day.

Here is a fun pic form halloween 1994. What was (e:iriesara), raggedy ann or a prostitute? What was I? What was Heather?

Here is the up close.

still laughing...

lilho - 10/25/08 22:28
holy crap! fatty asshole carny teen! i haven't laughed that hard in a while, thanks!

iriesara - 10/25/08 13:25
I think that you thought you were like a punk rock dude, and I think heather was some kind of warrior. which is funny because Elijah is going to be a samurai this year.

iriesara - 10/25/08 13:23
I was totally a prostitute. whore is always an easy last-minute costume for a girl. went a little nuts with the rouge, though, apparently

tinypliny - 10/24/08 17:35
Hahah.. You, (e:terry), need to be in Cancer Research. WE NEED YOU!

terry - 10/24/08 14:40
for the record no carnie assholes were harmed in the course of this lecture...
She was actually talking about carnitine-acyl-transferase :::link::: which is involved in transporting fatty acids from the cytosol into mitochondrion for eventual oxidtation. Fun times!

My harddrive is dying

Why me, why today? I know I use my computers really hard, and I have
everything backed up but I really don't want to have to deal with this.

Let's just hope it's a freak incident and a disk utily can repair it
and not that the drive is just dead.

paul - 10/24/08 14:35
It seems okay now.

leetee - 10/24/08 01:25
Awe, poor harddrive. i hope it is just a bit under the weather, and not heading off to that hard drive heaven in the sky....

tinypliny - 10/23/08 19:59
Good luck!!! Did it survive????

Picking up e:mike at the airport
Category: family

(e:mike) and (e:libertad) safely made it home from Florida. I prefer a
midnight pickup to a 6am dropoff anyday. Let's see if I can drive
them home safely!

mike - 10/21/08 14:35
thanks for picking us up!!!

libertad - 10/21/08 14:01
Thanks (e:paul) and (e:terry) for picking us up so late at night and waiting patiently in the car for us so we could get our luggage. Thanks for the welcome home (e:matthew). It is nice to be home believe it or not.

matthew - 10/21/08 00:43
welcome home (e:mike) and (e:Libertad)!

Letchworth Fall 2008 Rainbows
Category: hiking

We went to Letchworth State Park today to take pictures. I didn't get such great pics because I only brought the iphone. There were these amazing rainbows. I hope (e:matthew) got better pics of them.

We hiked all around, it was really warm in the sun and really not warm in the not sun.

The water is so low that this doesn't look like it is doing a "dam" thing, lol.

metalpeter - 10/20/08 17:52
That double rainbow shot is pretty nice.

matthew - 10/20/08 11:33
it was a perfect autumn Sunday! The rainbows put it over the top!
I'll post my pics soon.

tinypliny - 10/19/08 21:35
WOW! That is amazing!!!!
