One More Norway Post

I have a few more pictures to share. I don’t normally carry pictures of my kids with me. I had my pocket camera with me in Norway, so when people would ask me about my kids, I only had the pictures on the camera to show them. Here’s the picture I showed them of my […]

Norway Day 5 (Part 2)

On the night of day 5, I went to the Trumpet Karaoke Bar. The bartender was very friendly, and was kind enough to teach me some Norwegian phrases that came in handy. She also looked quite a bit like my sister. She even had some mannerisms that reminded me of my sister. I talked to […]

Century 10101

There’s a Century 21 Real Estate office in the Salt Lake City area, at 10101 South. I’m curious whether they knew when they chose the location that 10101 in binary is 21 decimal. On an unrelated note, I’m posting this with Windows Live Writer Beta, which has a beautifully minimal user interface and functional user […]

Skewface

This is my beautiful youngest kid: She was asking me to do something, and demonstrating. I don’t remember now what she wanted me to do, but I’m pretty sure it was something simple like “make a funny face.”
