Craig turns 1 on Thursday, and so far he's commemorated that by ending his streak of good behavior by chewing through a coax cable from my satellite. At least I had a spare that's long enough, but I was so hoping I'd be able to leave him out of the kennel full time, gone or not. So much for that, back in the kennel at night too! He's been free ( Read more... )

The funniest thing I´ve seen so far in PV was a couple of nights ago as we were just leaving to go out, maybe 11:30 or so.

Merry Christmas (belated) and Happy New Year! If you don't celebrate one or both of those, chill out, I'm wishing you well!

Only the Simpsons could successfully pull off an homage to Harry Potter, Brokeback Mountain, and Lord of the Rings in the same episode. I'm impressed that they can stay fresh after 19 years! Also, since I doubt Dubya would ever participate in a Friars Club roast, Comedy Central's Last Laugh 06 is the next best thing. Lewis Black is a comic genius.

THUNDERSNOW!!! I'd heard of such a thing, but never thought I'd see a thunderstorm with snow in Seattle of all places! Craig was enjoying it too.. although he probably thinks all snow comes with lightning and thunder now.

Seeing the Seahawks and Green Bay play in a snowstorm is nothing new, but seeing them play in a snowstorm in Seattle is quite
