Ups and Downs of the Week

Bruins – A little two game stumble this week, but back to their winning ways.

Phone Scams – These vermin should be locked away for decades.

Backroad Commuting – You never know when a nice scene will appear. And you’ll certainly never see it from the highway.

Ups and Downs of the Week

New Photo Website – I have so many pictures that it’s hard to use just this site to show them. So I created Sensor Perceptions to use as my photography showcase. Right now I only have a couple of galleries from our recent Las Vegas trip, but I’ll add more as I go along.

Pujols to the Angels – Now the Sox will be seeing a lot of him.

Verizon 4G – Talk about fast. I’ve seen download/upload speeds of 15/10 Mbps. Pretty impressive for wireless.

I was trying to grab some images of the full moon tonight and ended up with these shots of the turkey buzzards in the trees behind our house. That’s the moon rising in the background.

UPSMI – Stands for UPS Mail Innovations. If there is a worse way to ship something, I hope to God I never see it. I ordered an eye cup for the viewfinder on my camera two weekends ago. It shipped from NY last Monday (the 5th). I might finally get to tomorrow (the 13th). How does it take 8 days to get something so small from NY to IL? Easy. Ship it via UPS Ground from NY, go past IL to Kansas City, MO, then give it to the US Post Office to ship it back to Champaign, IL for eventual delivery. For this I paid $3.95. Unbelievable.

Ups and Downs of the Week

Bruins – 12-0-1 to close out November. That moved them from mid-pack to first place. They’re looking like the champions they are.

Head colds – Second one in a month. This is one I got from Sarah who got it on our way back from Vegas. Doesn’t seem like it’s going to linger for days like the last one did, though.

Bobby Valentine – For better or worse, he’s the new manger of the Red Sox. One thing is for sure; it won’t be a boring season.
