Here’s some of the better underwater shots from our snorkeling trip in Puerto Rico. I really wish I had a better camera for the underwater stuff. It doesn’t help that It’s not digital so these are the Walgreen’s photoCD versions of these pictures. Perhaps I was spoiled in Grand Caymen, but the water wasn’t as […]
Here’s some pictures from the catamaran on the way to snorkeling. It was a nice boat and a beautiful trip.
El Morro is a castle/fortress in Old San Juan. It’s pretty impressive as it’s been built out from its beginnings in the mid-1500s through WWII.
Here’s some pictures from our trip to El Yunque, the only rainforst in the US National Forest system. In my defense on some of the pictures, it’s really tough getting a good picture where the foreground is green, the background is green and the light filtering in from the canopy is green. :) It really […]
Long overdue, here’s some pictures of the new house, before we did any fixes. Believe it or not, the pool in these shots was cleaner than it originally was. :)
I came across this article, “Snowbound” [opens in new window] about a remote island village off the coast of Alaska. It’s a little long, but a very interesting read. While I’m hardly a people person, I can’t imagine living someplace so remote and desolate. Or so cold for that matter.

As you can see, the site looks quite a bit different than it did previously. I’ve decided that the old site was too spread out, too hard too hard to update, and most people didn’t like the color scheme. :) As a result, I’m setting up my site with a blogging back-end that will allow […]
04-22-2004: We have moved! We are now fearthepenguin.net. It was a difficult decision, but due to the cost of keeping the spack.nu domain name, I’m going to have to let it expire. It was the cheap option when I first registered it. At the time, there was only one place to register .com, .org, and […]
“What the *&%^$ is a ‘spack’?”, you ask. Well… ‘spack’ isn’t exactly an easy thing to define. See, ‘spack’ is an all-purpose word. It can be used for anything. It can be used in place of any part of speech, and can have any meaning the speaker intends. For instance, “Where’s my spackin’ tool box?” is […]
