Looks like The Huffington Post decided to publish my snow in Hawaii video. Florida is the only state that doesn’t have snow on the ground today, though they did a few days back I guess. So 49 states with snow. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/12/snow-in-hawaii-it-is-poss_n_808226.html

Can you hear me now? Yes i can!
How to drastically improve your cellphone signal. I gave-up my landline telephone years ago and have been using only a cellphone. But one of the problems with the magical iPhone 3G is that I can’t get AT&T service in Hawaiian Paradise Park. Actually a roomate had a Palm Treo and he couldn’t get an AT&T [...]
CSI on a jet fighter crash
Amazing photos of a jet crash in Canada. The still photos reveal all. http://tinyurl.com/298n2zk Look at the nozzles on the jet’s engines. The port (left) nozzle is wide open indicating that he was really thrusting on that. The starboard nozzle is in the closed position meaning it flamed-out and wasn’t pushing any air through.
