Fresh Friday Finds…

It has been ages since I’ve shared some fresh finds, but I have some that I really needed to share – enjoy! (I have more, but I am in a hurry and can’t find the links – so I’ll expand it next week.)

Incognito Breeder is a former blogger that has returned, well, incognito. She is simply a riot.
42 at 96. Allessandria had the ability to make me laugh, which is always a good thing. Go enjoy.

I could add Pixelog, but you already know that the thumbnails change at the top of this site as that site changes, right? So every time they change, go there. I’m so glad I’m updating it again – I was really tired of the “big ass beers” thumbnail!

Until the Red Sox Win…

Wearing a Red Sox cap and reveling in the team’s World Series championship after an 86-year drought, Kerry saw a metaphor for his own White House bid.

“About a year ago, when things weren’t going so well in my campaign, somebody called a radio talk show and they said, thinking they were just cutting me right to the quick, they said ‘John Kerry won’t be the president until the Red Sox win.’ Well, we’re on our way.”

Gandalf the Lizard…

Multimedia message

Gandalf

When Jason and I visited the Houston Museum of Natural Science a few weeks ago, we spent time in the Cockrell Butterfly Center. While there, Jason went off to find Gandalf, the resident lizard. The very, very huge lizard. My regular camera battery was dead that day (even though it was on the charger all night), so I had to photograph him with my cell phone. The picture doesn’t do him justice – he’s huge!

The Saga of New Orleans…

I’ve finally posted about the drama of my visit to New Orleans, and the photo that goes with it – visit Pixelog.

Always remember to select who you travel with very carefully.

Pro-Kerry for Many Reasons…

I was reading another site today that asked how, as a Christian, anyone could vote for Kerry. She felt that voting for him was against many Christian beliefs. I disagree. First and foremost, I don’t think our war-monger president is very Christian in the sense that he chose to go to war instead of making peace. On top of that, he claims to be pro-life, but executed more people in his time as Governor of Texas than anyone before him. How is that pro-life? When you say you are pro-life, do you get to pick and choose what lives you are for and what lives you are against? That doesn’t make sense to me.

Someone shared the link to this article in the comments. I think it has many, many good points that I agree with – and as a Christian, I will be voting for Kerry. (Because of who he is, not because of “anyone but Bush” sentiments.)

The Christian, Pro-Life, Pro-Kerry, Anti-Bush Argument.
