A New Gadget

I added a JavaScript-based Lightbox plugin which overlays pictures on the current page rather than opening a new page and then having to click the back button. To reactivate to the original page, click anywhere outside of the image, press <esc>, or click the close button. Since I am using the auto-lightbox option, it works [...]

We’ve talked about our new camera but we’ve never shown it. So, we decided to use the old one to take a picture of us with the new one. We’ll keep using the old one since the new one doesn’t have an infrared remote which is quite handy when both of us want to be [...]

We planned to stay up late watching the election returns; but, it turned out that the winner was declared much earlier than in the past two elections. So, here are our Two For Tuesday photographs for this week. Our theme for today should be Obvious. Let us know if you can’t figure it out.

Election Day
