Jenny picked up a cedar plank from the grocery store today. (Yup, it’s just a piece of wood.) We were supposed to soak it for 4 hours, but we didn’t have time. We soaked it in boiling water for about 2 hours instead. We heated up our $89 Canadian Tire gas BBQ to — well, [...]

I saw a silly 3-D movie tonight and afterwards took a bunch of pictures of myself wearing the glasses in various poses. These are the banjo poses. Most of them are blurry. Not much to see really.
I did some other poses that are funny. I might post them later. No much time for blogging when [...]

This is what I look like today.
Some people pay big bucks for a hairdo like this.

Mine appears in the Arts and Economy article.
Jody has two photo credits. The first is in the article on Rural Depopulation in Newfoundland and Labrador; the second appears in Depopulation Impacts.
All the articles are written by [...]

At this moment, I’m creating a single DVD slideshow of all the digital photos or snapshots I’ve taken since 2003 (when I got my first digital camera). I simply dragged-and-dropped my entire “My Pictures” directory into Nero’s photo slideshow thing, whatever it’s called. It’s been transferring the photos for the past 15 minutes and it’s [...]

A got a package from some politician on Ontario today. A previous package arrived a few days ago. This guy must be spending his constituency allowance on postage for this stuff, which cost more than $30 — though what’s inside is priceless. The first package contained a pink THINK sign, as in “Think Pink.”
The second [...]

This post is for my family, so move on all the rest (i.e. 2) of you.
Here’s a collection of photos from my mom’s and daughter’s trip to Newfoundland a week ago. It was my mom’s 60th birthday:

Today is Thanksgiving in Canada, a day to give the turkey industry a boast. My dead turkey’s name is Joseph. He’s being cooked for about 3 hours at 325°. We’re having cheesecake for desert, which is what I’m looking forward to the most.
Unrelated to this topic, here are some closeup photos of [...]

I bought a standard door peephole lens for $4.50 at my local hardware store today and held it in front of my digital camera. I then set the camera for maximum zoom and the auto-focus did the rest. Try it sometime and take a few pictures of your family and friends. It’s good for a [...]

Well, I had to pick my tomatoes last week because it’s too cold, even in the greenhouse, for the plants to stay alive much longer. I took some pictures which I haven’t sorted through yet. I’ll update this post at a later date. Click the image to view the photos.

I just did it. Steel White Table now has a “Gardening” category. Wooooh! Yah! Rock on!
I woke up early this morning, my first day off in about a week, and went out in the backyard with a cup of coffee. I hung out in the greenhouse and the garden until my coffee was gone. You [...]

As everyone knows, we go for a walk in the woods most Sunday mornings. Here are some photos of yesterday’s trip.
