The Sneeze

Very interesting and "laugh out loud" (at times) blog.

The Sneeze - Half zine. Half blog. Half not good with fractions.

This posting is a good example of "laugh out loud". Love & Methane: An Open Discussion.

Blue Angels in Salinas

The Blue Angels are making an appearance at the Salinas Airshow the weekend of Oct 2.

I have gone to the Salinas air show for the last 3 years now. Amazing airshow and the Blue Angels are simply amazing.

Here is a Van Halen video that I love. Not sure when it was made (guessing the mid 80's while I was college). The video is "Dream", and it stars the Blue Angels.

Quote of the Day

May those that love us, love us.
And those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn't turn their hearts,
May He turn their ankles
So we will know them by their limping.
~Irish Blessing

Brought a small smile to my face...

My Pad from Space

Did you know that you might be able to find an image of your house from space?

Terraserver: http://terraserver.microsoft.com/default.aspx

Here is my house

Below is a slightly correct view, the little push pin isn't correct on the site. My house is the one circled with the bluish color. You can click on the image to see a bigger view of it.



UPDATE: I knew there was another site that does something similiar: GlobeXplorer - http://www.globexplorer.com

Another picture of my house (first house on the bottom from the left (next to the park). You can see my old Mustang in the driveway. This picture was taken 6/22/00. At this point, the Mustang had been parked and not moved for ~ 2 years. Very glad that I finally got rid of it this year.



In this picture, you can see the condos where the vineyards were located. The watermarks are annoying...



I had meet a friend of a friend that worked for GlobeXplorer at a little party (I think during the Christmas time frame last year). Small world...
