Honk Honk and Quack Quack

Why can’t I ever get this close with a shotgun? Nah, these guys are cute. Aaaahhhhh.

More photos in my Gallery.






Speed Bump

Speed bump on Work Channel Road:

More photos in my photo gallery (take a look in 2006). There are still a lot more to come. I’m finally going through all the stuff I’ve taken in the last few months.




Yeah, it’s got a HEMI

Luggage cart at Prince Rupert airport. Yeah, it’s got a HEMI.

I have a whole bunch of photos that I need to go through and upload. You can check them out in my gallery — look under 2006.



Seafest Scam

Did anybody else enter the “door prize” contest at Seafest? If so, you’ll probably be getting a phone call soon where they tell you that you’ve won a trip, no wait, make it two trips, or three!

You’ll have to pay your own way to Miami or Tampa, though, and then you’ll have to pay a bunch of fees for the “prize.” What they don’t tell you is that you haven’t won anything at all — the “fees” are actually more than the cost of a decent cruise from Tampa or Miami.

I can’t believe the Seafest people actually allowed these guys to set up this obvious scam.

Here’s a link that discusses these kinds of scams: http://www.cruisecritic.com/cruiseplanning/articles.cfm?ID=88
