Its all fun and games, until someone looses an eye, then its a Sport!

Its no secret, I'm a geek at heart, actually I'm proud to be as geeky as I am! One of my many geeky pastimes is Beer and Airhockey. For a while there we had regular Beer and Airhockey nights, sometimes we had anywhere from 2 to 25 people show up to play. We even had a we… Continue

Fountain At UNM By College of Education

Its been there a long time, standing tall and white (its now turquoise) splashing away there in its circular pond. I know it so well, but yet i don't even know the name of the piece or who made it.

Believe it or not, since 1996 Albuquerque has had public meetings where hackers and geeks and all sorts of other people get together once a month and hold a regional 2600 Hacker Quarterly meetings. (Are you scared yet?) yes I used the word "Hackers" that should raise fear and alarm in all peop… Continue

That urbex idea is fascinating, very interesting hobby/project.
You miss so much of the city by just passing it by.

Thank you! She's actually a Tucson pound kitty rather than a purebred, but there's definitely something striking and special about her little velvety self! :)
