A place to put those random thoughts that pop up.
Just a quick upgrade to more current software – which changed the entire look of the blog, and lost some of the features installed. *sigh*
I need to figure out how to re-install at least a few of the features that were here before.

I just realized that I changed the image at the top of my blog from a B-52 on takeoff to Mt. St. Helens without mentioning it.
Recently a group of Scion owners here in the Pacific Northwest gathered for a “cruise” to the Mt. St. Helens observation center on Johnston Ridge, followed by an excellent BBQ and potluck picnic at Seaquest Park on our way back to civilization.
A fine time was had by all, and many quite excellent pictures were taken. I even took some pics.
One of those pictures I took was a panoramic view of St. Helens, a small version of which now graces the top of my blog.
Hope you enjoy it.

Anyone looking at this page probably noticed the B52 at the top. Why a B52?
The original pic that came with this sample “Theme” was a very oddly colored pic of a vehicle of some sort coming through a tunnel – just not quite me.
“So,” I said to myself, “what sort of pictures do you have in your HD that might be interesting across the top of a blog?”
I took a look and came up with that B52.
It’s not the model (B52F) that I worked with for two years in the Stratecic Air Command (SAC), it’s either a B52G or H model (short tail), but it gives a nice feel to the otherwise uninteresting top of the page.
Every now and then I plan to change images, for no apparent reason other than it will please me to do so.
Take care!

Well, I’m busily putting in some new toys in the website rec room – things like this blog and the snappy new “gallery” at Random Gallery.
If any of you folks want to take a look at the gallery, you’re welcome to – there are some failed images in there that I haven’t weeded out yet, and the whole thing is amazingly, uh, “random.”
Oh! Comments on this blog-like-thing are welcome, too, but I’m still figuring out how to turn on commenting for others, and until I do, the only choice is to drop me an e-mail.
Until next time, take care,
Tom
I came into this world cold, naked, and hungry, things really aren’t bad now I guess …
