Why not to watch movies on TV.

Monday, December 5th, 2005

So I was just hanging out tonight watching tv. I started browsing and ran across the channel Encore! This station shows uncut movies.

They were showing Lord Of The Rings: Return Of The King so I decided to stop and watch. They were showing a butchered version. The movie was not wide-screen, and it did not have the same impact as watching the DVD.

Still decking the halls!

Spent most of today decorating the tree and getting all the ornaments unpacked. We are about 95% done. I still need to fix the burned out lights outside and run the last extension cord so that the second half of the candy canes are lit.

Each year it seems to take longer and longer to hook up all the lights. I picked up the last three net lights at Rite-Aide so that I can completely cover my lawn with them. It really does look like snow 😀

It was cold enough today to light a fire and I got to use my super-cool new christmas bellows!

We remember our special friend.

Today was a sad day for me. As many of you know we lost our beloved Earl Grey two weeks ago. His passing was sudden and unexpected. Angie and I are still dealing with the loss. Yesterday I picked up his ashes and we are printing a picture to put with the ashes.

Today we received a sympathy card from the people that took care of him in his final hours. This brought back all the sad emotions, but made me feel that he was being helped by several caring people.

Orange Pekoe is doing well. She is handeling the loss better than we thought. She is eating normally, but for some reason has a lot more enegy, running around the house terrorizing our feet. I think she knows Earl is not coming back, but we still hear her meowing in the night for a little bit before she comes and bounds on the bed and sleeps at my feet.

Strange, the font buttons don’t appear in Safari. Had to download Firefox to do my editing, but then I don’t get auto-spell with OS/X.

I’m A Frapper, She’s a Frapper, He’s a Frapper, wouldn’t you like to be a Frapper too?

Wow, google maps and buddy lists…A tool to make a pin map of all your friends. I set one up for my nethack friends site:
