It’s too sunny outside to be raining

Partly sunny rain

As I was walking out to the parking garage it started raining. What was surprising to me was what the weather looked like at the time. It was mostly sunny and bright. And it reminded me of Florida when a lone raincloud in the sky would rain down and the wind would blow it over to on top of you.

New car problems

New car brake problems

Hrm, it seems that the new car is turning into a lemon on me. I am getting intermittent brake warning light problems. I wonder if the tolerances are loose or something. What is annoying is that, when the light is on, I cannot use the cruise control. And the turn indicator won’t go off automatically. Weird. I wonder if I should wait until it stays on longer before I bring it in?

Disc Golf 04/04/2009

Oak Tree Trimming

We decided to head out to Benbrook for disc golf today. It has been a while since we have played there. We met at a Starbucks to carpool down there. It seems that they were trimming the Oak trees. I wonder why they cut most of the branches off of them. So sad.

Concrete pipe bridges

It seems that they installed concrete pipe sections to use as a bridge for river crossings. Not that the water level was high or anything.

Mowing the yard

The course looked like it had been groomed recently. The grass was cut. Including the “rough” of the course. I thought that it was odd then that someone was out there with a lawn mower.

Good throw

For the most part, we did well. Ignoring the disc eating small lake. I had one great throw where my sidewinder anhyzered to the right around the trees and close to the basket.

El Coyote

For lunch we stopped at El Coyote. Which used to be some other Tex Mex place. Oddly enough, the inside of the place was oppressively humid. So we sat outside under the porch. The temperature was great but the traffic noises were occasionally loud.

Google search virus

Google Search virus

I normally use Google for more that just searching. For example, you can look up domain names, you can look up the correct spelling on words, or you can even do math on it. So it was frustrating when Google refused to spell “breazy” for me. It thought I was a virus.

I wonder when Google will start to implement a Turing Test for people wanting to use its services?
