Test flight

I love this scene from How to Train Your Dragon 2. There is such a feeling of freedom and trust.

The movie is very good overall, despite some ham-fisted dialogue. Some of the lines seemed like callbacks to scenes that got cut from the final version.

The baby girl fell asleep late yesterday afternoon while rocking in the tree swing in the back yard. She had taken an especially short nap earlier in the day and just nodded off while the boys played.

Illustrations of my family

Well, they’re not really of my family. The illustrations below are by Pascal Campion and are of his family, which happens to have a very similar size and structure to mine. He posts one illustration each day, and I’ve found myself sending Gabi the ones that remind me most of our family.

These illustrations will be even more like our family once our little girl learn to walk (run) and we get a dog.

And this one reminds me of when Gabi and I were still dating, having one of our many long conversations on one of the benches outside on our university campus.

I highly recommend following Pascal’s image of the day. You can sign up for his mailing list or follow him on your favorite social network from his site.

Twitter is down

Twitter is down. This is why I think it is important to have my own site. If my site goes down, it’s probably my fault…and I can probably fix it.

Competing views of the future: Huxley vs. Orwell

This comic by Stuart McMillen suggests Aldoux Huxley had a more accurate prediction of the future in Brave New World than George Orwell had in 1984–at least for this generation.

Living with a lion

In the early 70s, Tippi Hedren–of Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds fame–lived with her husband, teenage daughter, and a cat…but not your ordinary house cat.
