    Ono Grinds in Hanapepe

    Teri Burger and Teri Ono (fish) Sandwich: Ono (good) UPDATE: This sandwich was TEH AWSUM. I think the teriaki sauce was homemade. Mine was a teri burger, David had the ono (fish) teriaki. Both were ono grinds (good food). Ginny I can has iPhone? Via: Flickr Title: Ono Grinds in Hanapepe By: GinnyRED57 Originally uploaded: 15 Feb ’09, 3.48pm CST PST

    Good Kauai Morning

    UPDATE: Dawn from the lawn in front of our original condo at Poipu Shores; we moved later in the afternoon to a “second floor” unit that was actually the same level as the (lower) parking lot.

    Lovely Lav View

    UPDATE: We had good seats in United’s “Economy Plus” section, only because we paid $69 each to “upgrade.” A further request for a REAL upgrade to First Class was shot down at the gate podium; it no longer matters to the airlines that travel agents are salesperson capable of steering business their way. Ah well, there are ways and ways to get what we want. More after our return trip. This flight was otherwise pleasant, with 3 movies (2 Southern black-white chick bonding movies, 1 Northern crazy white man demands justice movie). Ginny I can has iPhone? Via: Flickr Title:…

    Reviews: The Language Of God, Inherit The Wind, Frost/Nixon

    I started reading this book, but set it aside a while back. Now I need to get back into it, because we’re starting to get to some meaty stuff in the Adult Forum group I’m in at church. We’re discussing Evolution, Creationism Intelligent Design, and whether science and religion are as incompatible as some say. It’s a pretty free-ranging discussion group, as one member studied philosophy, another is a scholarly Jewish guy who runs the program, and the rest of us bring our own take to the party. For instance, I have a background or interest in evolution, paleontology, anthropology,…

    Using Amazon with WP 2.7

    My former handy plugin for inserting images and product information from Amazon into my blog stopped working with the upgrade to WordPress 2.7. I’ve been floundering since then, putting off posting book reviews and such because it was such a pain pulling in the Amazon images of the right size, without all the extra little bits (like “SALE” and “Click To Look Inside!”) that seemed to be added separately. Well, this post explained a lot of what was going on in Amazon images, although I only “got” the gist of it (trust me, not that technical here). But it seemed…
