TerraFly another fun satellite imaging site (overlays street names and other info, too)...nice since mapquest stopped providing them- a public service of Florida International University. The USGS has provided some really good shots.

The Potted Meat Museum - The world's largest & most diverse canned meat collection. Yum.. possum in a can!

The Yankee or Dixie Quiz gave me - 49% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.

I would like a giant super villain (Dr. Feng Shui?) to rearrange all the buildings in Fort Lauderdale.

What happened to all that futuristic stuff which was supposed to change our lives by the year 2000? Retro Future

I am glad that food pills never really caught on...though I did like freeze-dried "astronaut" ice cream as a kid.

I unsubscribed from FFXI today. I can recover my character up until the last day of 5/2004, but I doubt that I will... I like playing online games for a sense of community, or at least hanging out with friends. Since I couldn't keep up with D & Sammy's leveling with being on call and all, I was quickly left in the dust, and don't much like playing online games solo. We tried, but I just couldn't keep up with folks that can spend so many waking hours playing it. Heck, I can't even surf the net for 13 hours straight, as much as I'd like to.

Bored just poking around the house... I'm going out to lunch and maybe a movie. Until later, dear journal.

That Yankee-Dixie quiz wasn't accurate at all with me... I got 64% Dixie, and I'm about as Yankee as they come. I think it's just that there were a lot of answers that came up as "nationwide" or "very common" that didn't point to a specifically Yankee way of speaking.

Cool idea, though.
