Florida Wildlife

I'm starting to get scared of my backyard. First we had a white rabbit...now a huge iguana...

So I went outside to see if I could catch it...and you wouldn't think these things are fast, but boy are they! It got into a tree fairly quickly, and out of my grasp. Overall, head to tail, it was about 3-4 feet long.

The real truth behind global warming: McDonald's

Cow farts = global warming. Got it.

No, you fools! Oh, wait, we knew you were fools already.

It's being confirmed that the SciFi channel will be splitting the last year of Battlestar Galactica into two parts, possibly with almost a full year in between parts. The only thing we do not know for sure is how long the gap will be in-between the split.

SciFi channel...you suck. I used to respect you, but you've decimated shows because you don't know how to handle them. Right now, other than BSG, there's nothing on your network I want to watch. I hope you go down in flames once BSG is done.

Back home, but the Con CONtinues...

Not really. DragonCon is over, but DragonConTV lives on! If you stayed at any of the hotels hosting DragonCon, they had closed-circuit TV on one channel called, appropriately, DragonconTV. They played bumpers like Adult Swim...

...as well as debuted their first music video...

I have the MP3 on my ipod now. Great tune!

I was bored, ok?

I cleared a section of my desk:

I have my own theory...

...maybe it's because men, compared to women, have a higher tendency to be color blind for red/green and thus react to blues because they can't see reds/purples?!? I know the wife would agree with that!

Cue the mad scientist movie music, STAT!

Does this worry anyone else besides me?

Key quote:

"When these things are created, they're going to be so weak, it'll be a huge achievement if you can keep them alive for an hour in the lab," he said. "But them getting out and taking over, never in our imagination could this happen."

I don't know about you, but I'm going to get my zombie plan ready now!

The Shuttle Launch!

But I couldn't see it. :( I like to think the weed sticking up into the sky is some fireworks, tho...

Almost committed...

You know...nice, beautiful end to the day...eating dinner with the family...looking out the window...and a small fluffy bunny rabbit head appears from around the corner of my fence.

"LOOK, A RABBIT!" I exclaimed...and then it bounces off out of view as my wife comes over to see...

South Florida is not a native environment for fluffy white bunny rabbits, especially my neighborhood. In an effort to make sure my wife doesn't think I'm entirely crazy, I had to go catch the fluffy white bunny rabbit to prove my sanity.

In the grand scale of things (related to animals) that I would not expect to ever see while looking out my back window at our lake, fluffy white bunny rabbits rank pretty high on that list. Now, I have seen a cow, before but that was in someone's backyard...not meandering down the street...

I chased the fluffy white bunny rabbit a bit...it was nervous...but it eventually stopped, lay down flat on it's stomach, let me pet it, and pick it up (by the scruff of its neck). So...now...we have a fluffy white bunny rabbit in our garage in a cage. We have signs up stating "RABBIT FOUND!" in our neighborhood...that went up within 15 minutes of me catching it...and no one has called.

Luckily, we had a good sized cage to put "Harvey" (get it?) in, and I went and got bedding, rabbit food and a water bottle for him (or her...please, God, don't let her be pregnant!). He (sticking with that) immediately started to drink water, and when we put food in, he started to eat.

Personally, I think someone dumped him. It rained earlier, but he was completely dry. He was clean, and apparently healthy. So, if he didn't escape, someone dumped him. I hope not...Harvey's a good rabbit. And very tired. He's had a long day.
