Well, the Dodgers just keep imploding. Earlier in the week, Jeff Kent refused to point fingers, but found that many things had gone wrong. The next day, rookie James Loney asked “Who said he was a leader?” Well, with less than 10 games left in the season, it doesn’t matter so much.
But at least the [...]
I rarely get sick. Even when I do, I usually don’t have to take an medicine to get better. This week though…. I had a good high fever, then just no energy the past few days. I’m feeling better now, but certainly not back to normal. Some point this weekend, I have lots of photos to post [...]
Summer is at an end. I thought for sure we’d have an Indian Summer this fall, but just before fall begins, a winter storm is primed to hit Los Angeles. It won’t be as big as the news said yesterday, mainly because the rain that was supposed to happen this afternoon has been held off [...]
The one thing I could learn to hate with a passion is customers. I’m much happier when I don’t have to deal with them, when other people are interfacing.Â
I’ve upgraded to Wordpress  2.3, beta 3. Hopefully everything still works fine. Biggest change you might notice is the tags field off on the right of the page. These are self inflicted by me, and the goal would be to reduce the  number of categories listed, and move some of those over into the tag cloud. At [...]
I’m off to the Dodger game tonight. While the Dodgers are practically eliminated for the season, if not technically, it’s still a game I have tickets for. So why not use them, and hope the Dodgers don’t get trounced like they did last night, 9 to 4.Â
Casio is developing a 300 fps CMOS based camera. 300 frames per second in VGA/ TV size quantities, and 30fps at 6 MP! Â Not for sale yet, just in the development/show off stage, but wow. Â Talk about blowing away current high definition TV. Â 1080 P HDTV is about 2 MP, this would be about 1.7 [...]
It was recently pointed out to me that Tamron has a Focal Length Comparison webpage. It shows you a picture, then you adjust the focal length to see what size zoom lens you’d need to have. Pretty nifty trick, and it encourages people to buy their products. I’m covered in any case, but it’s fun to [...]
It’d had been a full year since I’d been to Catalina. Labor Day to Labor Day. After getting a late start, and buying a new battery for the boat, we had a very calm and pleasant boat ride over. Here are some pictures!Â

The pelicans were out in force, flying around, then swooping down to pick [...]
A week ago, I went up on the Angeles Crest Highway to look at the Lunar Eclipse. Unlike the recent meteor shower, I was able to get some decent pictures!
