Man On Mars?

I saw this on TV this morning. It’s an image taken by NASA’s Spirit rover. Some believe it is a walking man on Mars. It looks like a Bigfoot to me.

Flickr Is Down

This morning their site was too sluggish but bearable. And around 3pm, when I checked, the site is already down… well you can’t view pictures. It’s nice though that they’re updating their users on the status of the site through their blog. Apparently, they did a database upgrade and who knows what went wrong. Here’s […]

Floors Are Done

Woohoo, my floors are done. I love the way it looks. It blends really well with our dark cherry furnitures in the living room and the master bedroom… oh and the man’s chest too in the baby’s room. I’ll give my neighbor a rating of 10 for a job well done! Where’s the check honey…

No Computer, No TV, No Life!

Just what I expected. The computer room was completed in time but the family room where our entertainment sytem is did not make it yesterday. This is where I also have my modem and router because it’s closer to the cable outlet. So last night was a terrible night. I’m not used to coming home […]

Man’s Chest For The Baby’s Room

Donna and I were out today shopping for furniture for the baby’s room. We decided that we’re just gonna buy a dresser or a chest and we’ll just get the crib later. It’s more important right now so we’ll have a place to store all the baby clothes and other stuff. Guess what we found […]

I’m Done Painting

Wohoo! Finally I am done painting the family room, living room and the hallway. Well, I also did the 3 bedrooms a couple weeks ago but I left the master bedroom though. I’m not too enthusiastic painting that room. I hate moving heavy furnitures. I actually redid the family, living and the hallway. I painted […]

I Paid For Flickr Pro

Honestly, I don’t normally pay for a service unless I needed it badly. I just upgraded my Flickr account to Pro for $24.99 a year to get the unlimited services that they offer. I was uploading tons of photos last night and I reached the maximum limit of 100MB bandwidth and 3 sets. Sometimes I […]

Drivers On The Road Are Nicer Today

It’s back to work today. While I was driving my truck this morning, I thought I was in Canada or Hawaii where drivers are much nicer and polite. I normally drive on the fast lane (#1 lane) and from time to time I encounter drivers who think that its okay to drive at 65 mph […]

Shopping On New Year’s Day

Is it a bad idea to go out shopping in the first day of new year? Apparently, my wife and I did’t think so. I wasn’t really up to it because I was too lazy to get up and go to the mall. But we haven’t done our holiday shopping and this is probably […]
