    I know, I know... If there's time this weekend I'm thinking smoked pork loins could be a possibility. Jon.

    Made some pickles...

    I think my daughter would like these. She always hated pickles until she had one at the Renaissance Festival this year. Now she loves them... But she won't try any of my pickled eggs! Go figure. Jon.

    The official tally was in before Christmas on the Cash For Clunkers scam. Err, program. The bottom line was, each clunker cost the tax payers $24,000. Jon.

    3rd virus attack at Photo Bucket - BEWARE!

    PBase, Zenfolio and Flickr are probably the best options for picture hosting. They are the most proactive in protecting your intellectual property rights (Copyright). Some sites like Photobucket will even sell your pictures/images to make a profit. The key to remember is, generally, nothing is...

    Salmon For Dinner Tonight!

    The smoker is a few years old. It hasn't had much use but we're working on that. I'm also a bit anal so we keep it in the garage to keep it clean and rust free. Jon.

    Salmon For Dinner Tonight!

    No brine but I think I talked my daughter into trying a brine batch the next time. But, I also need to stay away from too much salt at the same time. Jon.

    Sam's Club Lays Off 11,000 People - This Sucks

    Sam's isn't the only one laying off. The regular Wally World stores around here are ramping up for a big layoff too. My sister inlaw had her hours cut last week and they posted the official layoff list this week. Jon.

    Salmon For Dinner Tonight!

    We smoked some Salmon this afternoon from the fall run. It turned out pretty good too. Heavy on the pepper, 4 hours in the smoker with a load of cherry wood and a bottle of 2005 Concord grape wine made from the grapes in our backyard vineyard... Yum! Jon.

    3rd virus attack at Photo Bucket - BEWARE!

    Man, the punch card days... Not to sound mean or anything, but we would pull a punch card out of the center of a stack and slide it back into the stack several cards later... The victims never learned either... Jon.

    3rd virus attack at Photo Bucket - BEWARE!

    True enough. The wide spread use of Mac's will cause more attacks for sure. The same could be true for Linux as well. Except systems like Linux and Unix have been in use for many years by the most serious of companies and businesses around the world because they are much more secure and stable...

    How Old Are You?

    I'm not too worried about things posted online. Most things are not useful and probably too boring to use anyway. And for me, there is another guy that lives around the corner with the exact same name... If online identity theft of any kind is a concern the first thing people should do is dump...

    OMG Guess Who Knocked On My Door Tonight ? Mr. Yoshidas The Real One What An Honor

    How cool is that? I mean, in this economy where businesses are doing their best to suck every penny out of people at every possible turn these guys are showing their gratitude by sending you a very nice gift. That's enough to make me go out and buy a bottle or two of their products to try out...

    3rd virus attack at Photo Bucket - BEWARE!

    Mac's have a considerably less risk level to virus issues and other malicious attacks. Virus attacks on Linux are basically zero. But I love everyone that uses Microsoft products. If Windows wasn't such a bad product in general with all the bad things out there that target it, I wouldn't have a...
