Ron Helwig

Otis and I tried a new route today. Deerfield Parade Route: Up Parade Road to Deerfield Parade, along Nottingham Road to James City Road, and back up 107 to home base.

This morning I took Otis for a good walk. We went up 107 to Perkins Road, to Blake's Hill Road, to 43, then back home. More pics:

Ron Paul continued to make waves last night. His answer, although absolutely correct (see the video), didn't sit too well with the fascist crowd. His online polling numbers continue to confound the same useless mainstream media morons who didn't understand Howard Dean's success. Of course, as long as the MSM keeps ignoring and/or marginalizing him, his "real"^* polling numbers will remain low.

Meanwhile, sites like Students for Paul (which I am webmaster of) are doing very well and getting lots of traffic.

Taxes Suck

Avitar just showed up. They're the company that estimates house values for tax purposes.

We got some good work done outside today.

Why does the funny TV all have to be on so late?

OK, I finally got all my web based stuff all converted over to Gnu Hampshire (the organization I'm working with). It should be much cheaper in the long run than the services I have been using.

Warning: Geek stuff

Well, we came through the "great flood of 2007" relatively unscathed. The water level on the lake got pretty high, but nowhere near the house. Skip's basement did flood.

Well, I'm now drinking the kool aid and eating my own dogfood. This new site, using Drupal, is the proof and the challenge.

This is too cool not to pass along.
