When you figure that out let me know since all the home videos are in that format which doesn't last very long.

You need a computer with an analog capture card and a lot of hard drive space. (yes I have one of those computers) Then the ability to burn it to a DVD

Ah, a street I know very well. One on which I hate driving and parking with a white-hot passion.

That's why I have a pre-paid card to park in the garage a block away and sneak in from the back entrance. Makes the parking stress much less.

If we come we will not be there until after 12. We must stop at BZ Grill for some greek food.

Just email me at my real name at gmail dot com if you will be around. We should be able to get a decent seat at that time.

Good morning everyone.

Last night was a wild night. 5 flights arrived at the same time: 1am. :eek:
Didn't get off from work until 3am. Love the overtime but am currently paying the price. The low ceilings and fog are to blame. The only person to yell at us was a poor gentleman that got re-routed from JFK to EWR due to AA canceling their flight. Needless to say he wasn't too happy that his bag didn't follow him (our error) and that he was going to have to pay for a taxi ride to San Jose since all forms of public transportation were shut down for the night/morning.

I'm still up and ready to watch the first soccer match of the day.

Fiancee was wondering why there's not a lot of food/beverage options near one of the hotels we picked for teh wedding. She failed to consider the presence of a Naval Weapons Storage facility. With a few million pounds of net explosive weight down the street, I'd be snapping up real estate and building a ShopRite too. :rolleyes:

Aye, I bet insurance on property in that area is interesting.

Teh DoD will not confirm or deny the presence of anything, ahem, "special" there...but the highest degree of conventional explosive requires a 4,000-foot clear radius. Nothing within a mile seems quite sensible.

Ok, I know I rarely ever write anything...but here I am. I just wanted to wish all of you a wonderful day. Those of you who are out and about traveling, I hope that you are safe and having grand adventures.

I am super excited b/c I received the most handy dandy gift. A GPS! Now, if you know me, you might say that I am a bit, ummm....directionally challenged. (Are you laughing at me Scott6067!) Anyway, I love it. It gives directions such as "turn right, turn left...etc: instead of "head south on such and such" I like the explicit instruction. It lets you choose the colors on the screen and even have a little icon of a vehicle of your choice. (Ok, I know that is not super important...but hey, I like it) oh, oh...and it even lets you highlight special locations...mine is now set to notify me when I am near a winery!! ;)
So anyway I was super proud of myself b/c I just finished connecting it to the computer and downloaded whatever it told me to and think I have a pretty good grasp on using it. So, yay...I can't say I won't ever be a little off course when driving, but it does have a great little button that says...."where am I??" So, I'm looking forward to testing it out. That's all that is new in my little world. That is my positive endorsement of my new gadget.

I look forward to seeing people who are going to be in Austin this weekend. :-)
Have a super day.

Morning Box!

We're headed to Lockhart on a BBQ tour (what can I say, I had a craving).

Of course I got the TripAlert that my flight was delayed due to crew rest as I boarded the hotel shuttle. :rolleyes:

G'day box from SFO P[oop] Club. Yay for the PClub for having a house iPod charger. Awesome.

Any customer-facing concern that does not have at least a few BlackBerry, Apple, and assorted cell phone charging cords isn't getting the job done, IMHO.
