The Water Must Be Fantastic in Denver
This guy claims to have a video of an alien looking through a window. If NASA does find life on Mars, then would anyone believe it?
Founder’s Lodge
I was headed back to my cabin and saw this across the lake. So, I had to get it. It took several shots to get the right light (with this one) and a digging out a spot to steady the camera.

Tar Owner
Some of my previous blog posts about a little discovery have save me time in the past.
I made a tar of some system integration scripts we wrote for Vista 3 and brought them over to a Vista 8 test box to work on updating them for this new version. A decision we made earlier to change the userid came to light.
Using gtar -zxvf file.tar.gz
gave me the wrong owner. Thankfully the people who made tar long ago solved this problem with –owner. Look for it in the man pages. Using gtar -zxvf file.tar.gz --owner newid
gave me the files I needed with the right owner.
Also, thankfully, the old owner account was still on the box so I go into it and remove the files before extracting with the new id. Hopefully my Systems people (who read this blog) will not kill that account or our access to it until after this project is done?

No fair!
She came up to me to ask something. This is what I got when I pointed the camera at her.

Hello Kitty.
Prometheus Moth
I saw one of these last year along this same stretch of wall. However,
that was August 2006 so a different time of year? The dark colors are
faded on this one. Plus the gashes in the wings are interesting.
Nicole Has Freedom Now
Best of the walking photographs I managed to get at 190mm.
Nicole’s graduation means she needs a job. Do you have something for
her? Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice, 3 years IT helpdesk experience,
and 1 year web design experience. 🙂
