[changes may be coming to the blog]

I haven't really decided what to do yet, but it seems that the blog needs some reformatting. It appears that my photos keep getting cut off, or adjusted, and the video that I posted from youtube seems to be cut off as well. I'd really like to start putting more photos and videos on the blog, but I think I'll avoid the frustration of having things cut off or upside down until I figure everything out. I don't really like the pre-established templates for that blogger provides, so I guess one of these days I'm going to have to break down and figure out what exactly this needs to look like and try and replicate that with whatever will work. Guess I need to do some background work and figure out what the best way to make my own template is.

Work is work at The Shack, and I'm pretty much done helping Larry out in camp. I may volunteer to do a thing here and there. For example, the pool is being winterized on monday, and tuesday I am scheduled to help Larry put the cover back on for the winter.

[i'm batman!]

Batman probably has to be my favorite of all super heroes. I had forgotten this until yesterday though. The wife and I were in Meijer shopping for gluten free desserts, and I forget what else. But we happened to walk through the electronics section (because I couldn't help it of course) and there on and end cap were the Blu-Ray movies Batman Forever, and Batman & Robin. I got so excited that Casey didn't really have a choice but to let me get them. I remember being very young and going to a friends house whom we had nicknamed 'Skate' because we had met him rollerskating down our street. But I digest... I had the most fun playing with his batman toys. He had them all, and eventually I ended up getting some of my own, including the underwater batman, batman that shot a plastic missing off his arm, and a joker that had a flower in his lapel which would shoot real water. Oh, those were the days! Watching these older (90s) movies is interesting now that I'm just a little older. I actually get some of the side humor, and understand a little more of the back story humor as well. If I go to any Halloween parties this year "I'm Batman".

[baking on a grill]

These muffins were baked on my weber 220 grill. They were quite tasty. I'll be posting an instructable soon.

[upside down]

I wasn't able to review the video below. Apparently it is upside down. We will see if I can just upload the same video to youtube and have it available as a shortcut or in a window so you can see it properly. Until then, just turn your monitor upside down, nobody will look at you strange. I promise.

[animal race]

Previously this video was uploaded upside down somehow. I've replaced it with the youtube version. I guess if this continues to be a problem, I'll just have to post videos on youtube instead of using cellspin.
