We're back!


Our Thanksgiving potluck for our department was today. Man, I'm stuffed. Gym, here I come!

We appear to be up (if a bit slow), and to celebrate, here are some links!

Best "tagging" ever. (warning: contains knitting)

The possibilities are endless...

Maru, the world's funniest cat.

Coolest caves ever.

On a much more pissy note, the school superintendent for one of the local districts pulled TTYL, because one set of parents complained about it. Apparently, young adult books can't have "bad words" in them. Welcome to the 21st century!

Oh, man, the cave photos are spectacular! Have you ever been to the Caverns of Sonora? It's about halfway between Austin and El Paso. A friend kind of half-hijacked me out there, several years ago. When I finally got it out of him where we were going, I thought he was crazy, hauling me hell-and-gone out there to the middle of nowhere, but on the way home I had to admit that he was right: it was worth it.

I was just poking around in their website and I see that if you call ahead and make a special reservation, one of their guides will take you on a special photographic tour of all of the developed trails, and you can bring all of your photo equipment.

Hmmm.

If you get the National Geographic channel, they've been running a 1-hour show called "Giant Crystal Caves" (I think).

Never been to the caves, sounds interesting. Hm.
