Anyone know why this item would be on clearance at Dogs.com? These bowls are made of 100% Melamine, a strong durable plastic material that stands up to every day wear and tear. Unlike other pet bowls, melamine reduces scratches and nicks that trap harmful bacteria. They’re dishwasher safe, won’t fade and feature non-skid rubber feetContinue reading “Hey pet owners…”

1st Salmon
My favorite picture of the day. I’m especially proud that the horizon is straight. I seem to have a problem holding my camera level and it’s not so good when there’s a slanted ocean in the background. This is the remains of the first salmon the tribe caught this season, after it was tasted byContinue reading “1st Salmon”
Dodge and Burn
Why won’t anyone teach me what I want to learn? I enrolled in a PhotoShop class at the community college, level 2, because I didn’t want to have to sit through a bunch of questions about whether to save as a JPG or a TIF or how large to make a file… Wound up havingContinue reading “Dodge and Burn”
Juvenile offender
She’d never do this if I were home. Note pizza box in background, the bottom of which she chewed through rather than turn the thing over. Rob was mad that she refused to pose properly with the evidence afterward.
Well read
I read a book about how to fit more reading in my life, which is where I got my audiobook inspiration, which turned out to be a splendid idea, as I am spending at least 10 hours a week in my car, it seems, and can get through a book a week that way. SoContinue reading “Well read”
Genius
Save My Bath hasn’t called. Hard to believe but there are actually worse bathrooms than mine. The golden guest bath has the same problem that my master bathroom used to have…orange tile and a gross faux marble linoleum countertop that is actually tiled to the wall. If I wanted to replace just the counter top,Continue reading “Genius”
Rocky Balboa is really a girl
I’m starting to suspect that Stew might be a girl. I’m not sure, because he/she hasn’t laid eggs or displayed any male genitalia. But he/she doesn’t have the secondary sex characteristics distinctive to male iguanas. Stew doesn’t have fatty bumps behind the eyes, or enlarged jowls or large, rounded subtympanic shields (you totally want toContinue reading “Rocky Balboa is really a girl”
My footprint
It feels good to look at these suggestions for reducing my carbon footprint, and say that I’m already doing some of them. In fact, I just planted a tree last weekend (after getting it free at an Earth Day event). And I just learned that I shouldn’t leave my cell phone charger plugged in allContinue reading “My footprint”
No. 1 Amendment
CHICAGO — Told to express emotion for a creative-writing class, high-school senior Allen Lee penned an essay so disturbing to his teacher, school administrators and police that he was charged with disorderly conduct, officials said Wednesday. Lee, 18, a straight-A student at Cary-Grove High School in Cary, Ill., was arrested Tuesday near his home andContinue reading “No. 1 Amendment”
Field notes
Two observations: When I try to take pictures of people doing something, inevitably they have their backs to me. If possible, I walk around to the other side and usually can get a shot of the face. Makes me wonder if there’s something instinctual about turning away from the camera, even when they’re not reallyContinue reading “Field notes”
