Kayaking at the Brevard Zoo in Melbourne, Florida. The giraffes were heading back to their pens for the evening and walked next to the canal we were on.

A photograph shot in Cocoa Beach, Florida in March. It was a little cool, but not enough to keep people off the beach.

This photo was taken at my parent's house in Florida. The flower bloomed the day before. My Canon PowerShot S3 had a feature that will highlight a color and turn the rest of the image black and white.

The Hyacinth Macaw is usually found in Brazil. I took this photo at the Brevard Zoo.

I took this photo of a white rhinoceros at the Brevard Zoo. They're not actually white, but are grey or yellowish in color. This one had just climbed out of a mud hole.

These two pieces of art came from my grandfather's house. We believe they were purchased around 1959. They spruce up our family room, but are probably too hip for our lifestyle.

 A parrot photographed at the Brevard Zoo in Melbourne, Florida. One of the best little zoos in the country. It gets better every time I visit.

The Cat in the Hat and Grinch greet visitors at Universal Orlando's Islands of Adventure. I visited with my family last week. My son and I loved the Hulk roller coaster and Seuss Landing was very cute. Hulk may be the best roller coaster I've been on. At the start it accelerates from 0 to 40 mph in 2 seconds and hits a top speed of 67 mph. There are a total of 7 inversions. We give it 4 thumbs up.

Are bugs beautiful? Some can be. More than 2,000 photos of beetles, spiders and moths from Thailand can be found at thaibugs.com. I ran across this site on the new K12 Hot Links, which is resource blog for teachers, but worth browsing for the fun links found there.

Queen spent the time between the shooting and his death in praying and cursing and talking with the women.- From a newspaper account of the 1888 shooting of notorious Kep Queen by Sheriff E. Sanders, and posse.

I recently bought what may be the most confusing book of knock knock jokes ever. Many of the cultural references in this 1936 book are lost on me, but that doesn't stop me from appreciating the illustrations by Bob Dunn. Here are the first three of 49 illustrations. I'll eventually get them all posted.This is my best one yet.Notice the high class knock with the back of the handWho's there?

Here's a fun game where you try to park a car in various situations.

A boy is held captive and assimilates with his host. No, not Shawn Hornbeck in Missouri. I'm talking about Santiago McKinn, who in 1885 was captured by Chiricahua Apaches. When he was returned to his family the next year he was so distressed he began to cry. He had even learned the Apache language during his captivity. This fascinating true story from the American West can be found at Ghost

Another myth busted. Apparently if you put a frog in cold water and slowly bring it to a boil it will, indeed, jump out.
