Going on a Trip

2:38 pm February 15, 2008

I’m heading to lovely Bangalore for about a week, so I should have some interesting pictures in a week or two. The flight sucks, but the weather on the other side is sooo much nicer than it is here now (DC area). Also, I’ll be visiting the troops in their brand new digs, so I’m looking forward to that, too.

See you on the other side!

    What a steaming load.  Looks like I’ll have a Vista PC sometime in my future after all.

…in the beginning

    Well, it had to happen sooner or later.  Yes, I’m finally giving this a try and we’ll see what happens.  The idea is to blog about general topics of interest to me at any given time - with little or no regard for the readership (who will no doubt be confined to my immediate family).

    Let’s see how it goes :)
