Pisker and banoon

Hey homies.
The title of this post is what my girlfriend's god son, Christian. says instead of "picture" and "balloon." I feel he improved both words so why not make them the title of this pisker (but not banoon) related post?
So I tried posting my M drive piskers on snapfish instead of fickr. My family uses that site so i figured it would be more convenient for me to start there. It went well. Swimmingly, really. No problems or anything. Except I don't think snapfish has a feature to share with the public. You can invite others by e-mail but, aside form the invitations, i didn't see too many other sharing options. Also, as far as I could tell, it did not have the same search capabilities as flickr, meaning you couldn't just pop in the name of a tag and it would give you a list of pictures related to that tag. Which means you also wouldn;t be able to search for the most popular tags, most interesting, most recently used, whatever. I don't know. maybe my fam needs to reconsider their site choice...

That's about it for me. I will try to end with three interesting things going on in my life now. ok. Starting, here: I'm reading Ginsberg's "Howl and other poems" all the way through for the first time in my life. I'm looking forward to dragon boat action next month. I hope I get to see tom waits play a show in st louis when i visit my sister there. And I'm loving skateboarding. I wish i could go do it right now.

There. that's four mildly interesting things. You get what you pay for?
later gators,
poo
