San Elijo Blasting



This video is a series of three separate blastings done outside my home. The second blast is the best one.
The blasting is to prepare the grounds for a new Albertson's. Explosions are cool!

Pictures of the week


I am in cost accounting this semester and I ordered the book on-line. The way I got my book seemed really ironic.
Cost Accounting according to wikipedia.org - Cost accounting is the process of tracking, recording and analyzing costs associated with the products or activities of an organization.
Ok, with that in mind look
at these pictures.

Now, the left picture is where I would like to direct your attention. The big brown box on the bottom of the picture is about 18 inches long and 10 inches wide. Keeping in mind that a book is just over 8&1/2 by 11, the box was a bit over kill. So to fill in the space the sender used the foam stuff. Then once you get through the first box and foam there is another box. Open that box and dig through more foam and you find the book. It just didn't look cost efficient to me.


We were at the park on Saturday. We were there at the same time some other families were so we played around them. About fifteen minutes later, the other families got up and left. It was just us and the toys. As we were playing, we found a sand bucket and started to use it to pour sand on things so my daughter could wipe it off as fast as pourd it. After my daughter got tired of playing with me I got the great idea of burying the dolphin just because I could. Here is the evidence of all my hard work. Just after the pictures were taken a car pulled up and we high tailed it out of there.

White and Nerdy

I have noticed that there has been a lot of nerdy things around me.

1. My wife has found her secret nerd passion.
2. My favorite shirt says -Talk Dorky To Me-
3. I found a cool new song that is pretty dope, yet white and nerdy.
(Note- click on the link above to play the song)

Lyrics

They see me mowin'
My front lawn
I know they're all thinking I'm so white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
Can't you see I'm white and nerdy?
Look at me, I'm white and nerdy
I wanna roll with
The gangstas
But so far they all think I'm too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
I'm just too white and nerdy.
Really really white and nerdy.

First in my class here at MIT
Got skills, I'm a champion at D&D
MC Escher - that's my favorite MC
Keep your 40, I'll just have an Earl Grey tea
My rims never spin, to the contrary
You'll find that they're quite stationary
All of my action figures are cherry
Steven Hawking's in my library
My MySpace page is all totally pimped out
Got people beggin' for my top eight spaces
Yo, I know pi to a thousand places
Ain't got no grills but I still wear braces
I order all of my sandwiches with mayonnaise
I'm a whiz at Minesweeper - I could play for days
Once you see my sweet moves you're gonna stay amazed
My fingers' movin' so fast I'll set the place ablaze
There's no killer app I haven't run
At Pascal, well I'm number one
Do vector calculus just for fun
I ain't got a gat but I got a soldering gun
Happy Days is my favorite theme song
I could sure kick your butt in a game of ping pong
I'll ace any trivia quiz you bring on
I'm fluent in JavaScript as well as Klingon

They see me roll on
My Segway
I know in my heart they think I'm white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
Can't you see I'm white and nerdy
Look at me, I'm white and nerdy
I'd like to roll with
The gangstas
Although it's apparent I'm too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
I'm just too white and nerdy
How'd I get so white and nerdy

I've been browsin', inspectin'
X-Men comics, you know I collect 'em
The pens in my pocket, I must protect 'em
My ergonomic keyboard never leaves me bored
Shopping online for deals on some writable media
I edit Wikipedia
I memorized Holy Grail really well
I can recite it right now and have you ROTFLOL
I got a business doing websites
When my friends need some code, who do they call?
I do HTML for 'em all
Even made a homepage for my dog
Yo, I got myself a fanny pack
They were havin' a sale down at The Gap
Spend my nights with a roll of bubble wrap
Pop, pop, hope no one sees me
Gettin' freaky
I'm nerdy in the extreme
And whiter than sour cream
I was in AV Club and Glee Club and even the Chess Team
Only question I
Ever thought was hard
Was do I like Kirk
Or do I like Picard
Spend every weekend at the Renaissance Fair
Got my name on my underwear

They see me strollin'
They laughin'
And rollin' their eyes 'cause I'm so white and nerdy
Just because I'm white and nerdy
Just because I'm white and nerdy
All because I'm white and nerdy
Holy cow, I'm white and nerdy
I wanna bowl with
The gangstas
But, oh well, it's obvious I'm white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white and nerdy
I'm just too white and nerdy
Look at me, I'm white and nerdy
