Weather in San Jose when I'm on vacation

The flight leaves today and I’ll be back August 1st. Get ready to see a pretty full flickr account on my return, as I’m headed to Yosemite Park while I’m there. Oh, and yes, I probably won’t touch this site too much for the next two weeks. :)

Update: I’ll be home tommorrow afternoon, but I’ve uploaded the good pics from the trip onto my flickr account, so go check them out (all pictures are located in either the Beach or Yosemite albums).

  • Here’s an interesting method of captcha. I might considering implementing that and getting rid of Askimet. :P 7/17/06 (0)

    Italy wins 2006 FIFA World Cup

    Italy wins 2006 FIFA World Cup

    It all came down to penalty kicks after being tied 1-1 after overtime. France’s second penalty kick (by David Trezeguet) hit the goal post bar while Italy scored them all to win the 2006 FIFA World Cup. :) There was also a very nice head-butt blocked by Italy during overtime.

    Update: Hahahaha, Zidane won the Golden Ball. :D

    Update: Here’s the video of the Zidane head-butt (non-soccerball head-butt).

    Update: It appears the BBC found a lip reader able to decipher what Materazzi said to Zidane.
