Tom McGuire — Sat, 09 May 2009 16:36:05 +0000

I was moving my Bonsai (not Banzai) trees and accidentally grazed a native Texas cactus (produces delicious Prickly Pears). The fine needles stuck to me like sweaty thighs on leather upholstery. After trying to pluck them out one by one we came to the conclusion that the only solution was to ...

The strangest thing happened last night. I sat down to do some research on Black Hat SEO techniques. I was looking into if there were some Adsense CSS hacks or if anyone had ever come up with a way to use CSS to replace the Google JavaScript after it was ...

Dazed and confused Humming Bird

Tom McGuire — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 17:39:56 +0000

This poor little humming bird crashed into one of our windows and I tracked him down outside where I found him taking a rest on a deck railing. I’m guessing it’s a male humming bird because of his pretty colors. We also have a bright red Cardinal which we have named ...
