Not THAT Capitol. Our Capitol. The one in California. We risked our lives the other night walking around downtown Sacramento after sunset trying to find variously advertised holiday lights. I’m sorry, but “somewhere in downtown starting at the waterfront and working toward midtown” doesn’t work for me. Can you pick a frickin’ street? And not a path that makes us walk past the Greyhound Bus Station? I mean, yikes!
Nevertheless, since there was more than one of us, I felt slightly safer walking from the ice skating rink at St. Rose of Lima Park…
to the Capitol.
And this is what happens when you try to mess with your point-and-shoot’s ISO setting without a tripod (or the manual) because you think the previous picture is too dark (and because you don’t need no stinkin’ manual).
And that’s the best one of the lot.
Frack.
Oh, hey, did any of you see the dudes at the entrance to the Harvest Festival at Cal Expo this year? I’m talking real honest to goodness “dudes”.
Don’t they look like the rootinest, tootinest cowboys this side of the Pecos? What is a Pecos anyway?
Hey, guess what? I’m having a party and you’re invited. Find something crappy and theoretically unused (or use one of your crappy gifts this holiday season) and come to my Online White Elephant Gift Exchange Party. We have guests so far coming from the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia! Details are on last Monday’s White Elephant Gift Exchange Party post. RSVP by Friday, December 31.
