Where is your dream vacation?

Post links, in the comments, to where you would like to vacation to with all expenses paid.

Here is a place I came across on TheCoolHunter.net that I thought looked kind of cool, don’t know that it is my dream vacation spot though. It’s Huvafen Fushi and located in the Maldives.

What is on your Christmas list?

Here is the only thing on my list:

Nvidia 8800 GT ( $289 at NewEgg.com ) – This is a video card for computers, which makes the image you see on your screen show up (for those non geeks). This thing though is designed for hardcore gaming which requires massive amounts of graphics processing power. The latest games coming out pretty much need one of these if you don’t want to feel like your watching a slideshow.

My Nvidia 7600 GS video card just isn’t cutting it anymore so maybe after Christmas I’ll have some extra cash or something to put towards this thing. Who knows maybe Santa will drop this under the tree when he finds out I single-handedly pulled 23 nuns out of a turned over bus that was on fire and wired with a bomb, which I also defused.

My hometown flooded

Last night we had some monsterous storms from a tropical storm that had moved inland. After 3 days traveling inland the storm kept strong and was dropping rain at about 3inch per hour! And it was very weird to see the radar image of the storm and see what looked like a hurricane over Oklahoma.

Kingfisher, OK, which is my hometown is near a fork in a river and all the rain that Oklahoma received has caused the river to overflow in Kingfisher causing the biggest flood to my knowledge in Kingfisher. We had something similar to this when I was younger but it was no where near this bad.

I’ve been following the news and taking pictures of the tv screen of the events, floods and rescues in Kingfisher. Quality is not so great of the images but you can still see what is going on.
