Jeremy in the Snow
Jeremy had a great deal of fun on Vacation. He discovered that SNOW, when deep enough, will aid his research into AntiGravity Experiments.
By which I mean that he had a blast hurling himself into the air and landing in snowdrifts deep enough to bury himself in. He bounded through the snow, chased it, dug in it, and generally had a Very Good Time. He was really bummed when we came home - not enough snow, and of course we left my mom and dad -- his NEW FAVORITE PEOPLE -- behind.
Here's a few pix of him enjoying himself in the snow.

Privacy on the Internet - HAH!
Just found out about a site that aggregates your personal data and displays it to anyone that knows your name.
http://www.spokeo.com
Go there, enter your name (and your location - optional) and search. They've got your address, a map of your location, the people that live with you, and a lot more data. This isn't just "easily found information from elsewhere on the internet", either - I found out that they included information about me that is not easily found on the internet, because it's linked to a misspelling of my name that is only in ONE place, and that should only be available to someone with access to my account information for that particular file.
If you have signed up for memberships anywhere (including places like Kroger, Sam's Club, etc) or if you have credit cards, Debit Cards, or any other electronic presence, you'll benefit from checking out what this site has on you.
You can remove your information from their listing easily - copy the URL for your information, click on the "Privacy" link (very small text) underneath the map and enter the URL, a valid email address for you, and the Captcha text. You'll be emailed a link to complete the removal process, and once you click on the link, your listing is removed.
