Colorado Balloon Festival

From 8/31/08: The annual Colorado Springs balloon festival.

So many things come to mind...

This is a picture from a couple of months ago... never managed to get it on the blog. Let's see, where to start... both books by the same author... titles go good together. They were sitting just like this on a shelf in a book store in the airport. Feel free to use the comments to post what you think.

Mommy, what are those monkies doing?

No comment needed...

Odd street graffiti

I saw this on the corner near Starbucks in downtown Colorado Springs. I think it had to do with the Senior Open. I noticed a few others later, but never quite figured out what they were... anyway, a dolphin coming out of a golf green.

Cake or death?

Cake please! Russ and I went to see Eddie Izzard tonight. He was very good. After the show, he came out and spent some time answering questions. He was very nice about answering the odd questions.

I saw this car parked at Schriever. Thought it was funny.

little or crazy

Russ found this place. Not sure what they're selling. Could be some small rocky mountain oysters.

They're crazy or worse...

At Costco they had this package of nuts. So, either it reads "Everyone is nuts" or worse, "Everyone's (possessive) nuts." The fact that they are from California doesn't really help clarify anything. So, either way, I'm not going to eat everyone's nuts.

What's your pleasure? How about CPR.

I arrived in LA Thursday morning. I spent the day trying to get some work done. I was barely successful. When I got to the hotel, I noticed several oddly dressed women in the lobby. They had on more than the average amount of leather. I didn't think much of it, this is LA. Later that evening, I went to the gym. That's where I saw the sign in the picture... "Welcome to DOMCON". Based on what I'd seen, I guessed that meant dominatrix conference. The next morning, while at breakfast, I heard a couple of women talking about the conference. They were specifically talking about the CPR class. I guess if your client has a dodgey heart, that training will come in handy!

"World's greatest burger..." Not

We flew back from DC on Monday. Since we flew on American from National, we were presented with the option of getting a burger from Fuddruckers. It seemed like a good idea since they usually have good food. We got our burgers and were slightly disappointed with the hockey pucks we received. It made me wish we'd flown another airline to go out of the gates by Five Guys which actually has the best burgers.
