Here are the girls on New Years Eve. We had pizza, crab and I had a steak, it was festive!

This guy Shizzy, aka Bob from accounting, pulls off some pretty funny (and kinda disturbing) prank emails.
This is Patterson Pass Road, facing east towards Tracy, as it looked on my way home today (got off early!).

Santa, Santa, Santa, funny Santa!
Here they are with Santa at West Valley Mall in Tracy!

Kahula really is doing great. Overall we have lucked out again suffering only mild puppy damages around the castle. I have to say that not crapping in the home, as of yet, moves her up rapidly in rank groups. Her ripping the stuffing from the couch does not help however. She is a puppy after all; a big one. We love her, she is a good dog.
Tonight was the Winter Concert for Veronica. She plays violin. They were great! Here are the strings tuning up. Veronica is on the right, towards the back in this picture.

Here is “It’s A Wonderful Life” in 30 seconds re-enacted by bunnies!
Today Veronica left for Science camp. She will be gone four days!
Here is what the Tracy Press had to say:
Off to science camp
Williams Middle School seventh-graders chatted, took photos of friends and smiled Monday morning at the thought of having the next four days off.
During the weekend, they packed their suitcases and backpacks with the essentials for a trip to science camp.
“We are glad we are getting out of school,” seventh-grader Janel Marcelo said. Because of budget cuts last year, Tracy Unified School District officials slashed science camp for sixth-graders, which means Janel and the other youngsters missed the trip.
We also managed to get the christmas lights working, wow man the house is melting!

Today we managed to get out and get a tree! Here are the girls down at the “Christmas Tree Farm” right next to Wilson Way Tires on 11th St. here in Tracy. This is where we always get our tree from The BSA Troop 505, Tracy, CA.

Lisa bought me a new camera for my birthday because I am such a good boy, here is a pic:

Things may look a little different around here ’cause I moved to a new web hosting service. I was getting hammered by spam bots posting to comments. I got over 700 comments in 1 day all about Texas Hold’um online poker and other useless dribble from spammers. I hate spammers. Anyway, iPowerweb, my old host was unable to help me control the spam because I was unable to edit the B2 comments scripts to ward off the asshat spammers. I gave up on them. My new host allows SSH and telnet and support for several blog packages including Word Press, which I had installed and running in minutes. Word Press supports plugins and there are several plugins that help control spam in comments, so here I am. DNS updated yesterday and we are rolling.
