At the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. I'm getting ready to cast my lei upon the waters over the wreck, a common tribute to the memory of the dead. Due to environmental reasons, one has to unstring the flowers from the binding rope before scattering them over the side.

when we were there, about 85% of the tourists were French, another 10% German, 5% American, per the ranger that spoke to us about it.

It really does look like a prison wall doesn't it? There's a large window I can reach if I stretch my arm up when I'm standing so I'm happy with the natural light. The rest of it has my artwork and a nice workspace.

you're so sweet!

All our talking about my hair color and you finally get to see it.

I tried these beers this weekend, Redds Apple Ale and Stella Artois Cider tasted like carbonated apple juice. I know you've tried different beers, have you tried either of these?

I'm not a beer drinker don't really care for it, my son thought I might like these. Not bad if you like apple juice.

I thought asking more than once to see your new hair color would either be weird or creepy; and who wants to be that guy?

I haven't tried the beers you mentioned, but I'll look for them.

It sounds to me like what you'd really like is hard cider. Apple juice with carbonation and a kick. I love the stuff. We have all kinds up here in the Northwest. I've also tried pear cider, which is Heavenly. If you like 'carbonated apple juice', but not beer, try hard cider.

On edit: I can see now that the Stella Artois was supposed to be 'Cider', not 'Cidre'. Shows you what I know: I thought 'Cidre' was a fancy new French variety. Anyway, I thought it was an apple-brewed beer.

I'm not drinking too much right now (not that I ever do) cuz I'm running that 5k next month and I was looking at the calories/carbs on the Stella and was blown away. So my son says, drinking beer is like drinking liquid bread. Not a good way to get someone to try beer. LOL.

They love it. It's as much a part of life for them as wine is to the French and Italians. (The Germans, too, by the way, who make some pretty good wines...)

And the Germans are big on physical fitness, so it's possible to enjoy both. Just don't slug down a pint right before the race!...

I think the eyebrow roots are connected to my toenails...I was getting them waxed but it's too expensive to do regularly, and I can't do it myself, so I pluck pluck pluck away every 3 weeks. If I do it sooner than that, I overpluck....longer than 3 weeks and it's like using a butter knife to trail-blaze in the amazon.

Here are my eyebrows in their unfettered state....

You know, if you're at work or whatever and want corn on the cob, but don't have a gallon of water to boil it in, or a grill to grill it on, you can just put it in the microwave with the husk on for a few minutes and it comes out AWESOME. I was skeptical at first but I tried it and it was really good, and now I can have fresh COTC at work without it going all goofy from sitting in the fridge the night before

When I caught it, I had no idea that there were Freshwater drum in that lake. After years of fishing there, that was the first time I had even seen one (it was also the first time I had ever seen one in person ). We actually took the picture to see what it was since our flashlight's batteries crapped out on us that night. Using the flash to see didn't work too well , but the picture came out. After the first flash I was all, 'It's a Bass!' while my buddy was 'It's a Carp!'. After the second flash we looked at each other and said 'It's a giant mutant perch?' but that didn't stop us from deciding it was worth eating.

Shocking the earth - , I was doing an earth resistivity study on a ranch looking into the their shallow geology. The owners asked that I do some work because they wanted to know more about their land and the water resources they had...have (This was years ago, so the world being what it is, their resources ought to be the same). By moving the probes out to different distances you can change the depth that you are testing. I always found shallow earth geophysics fun, even when using old antiquated equipment like I was that day. The newer stuff will create colorful cross sections and even 3D plots assuming you set out the probes right.

As to the wolves, I have always had a connection to wolves, foxes, coyotes and other canines. My parents have told me that I've had that connection since I was a newborn. I've even had visits from foxes and coyotes while camping. Those would happen really late at night when I couldn't sleep. It was almost like they would come keep me company, so I would talk to them. My friends thought I was nuts when they would catch me doing it, but they thought it was pretty cool that our camp would get visited like that.

I also think that wolves are much more noble than humans, so it has always been a deep down wish that I could shed my human skin and join them.

sister and I) went with Abercrombie and Kent, which is a high-class tour provider. I couldn't have afforded it except that last year they ran 50% off on trips to Egypt. We were there when Morsi issued his decree, taking over more power and the first of many protests were held on Tahrir Square. We could actually see the lights and hear the crowd from the balcony of our hotel on the last night we were in Cairo.

Cairo is like nothing I'd seen before. Masses of cars and buses along with horse and buggies, herds of goats and flocks of geese. Very congested and very poor. I could have spent a couple of days at the Museum.

We flew to Aswan to see Abu Simbel and the dams. Then got on the Sanctuary Sun Boat IV for our cruise down the Nile. We stopped at several temples and on to Luxor. After the temples of Luxor and Karnak, we crossed the Nile to the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens.

I'd have loved to have stayed in Luxor for a month or so. I'm nuts about archaeology and Egyptology. We were in the second tallest pyramid at Giza, in King Tut's tomb, and saw and touched stuff 5,000 years old.

I'm terribly concerned about the country and how it may effect our ability to travel there again. I feel the same about multiple places around the globe. Want to see as much as I can before it's too late.
