HNT – 330

Thursday, December 29th, 2011 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos, Video | By: Midwestern City Boy

As you know, today is the last day for Half Nekkid Thursday. Today is our 330th and final post. California Girl and I have thoroughly enjoyed participating as posters and as followers. We want to give our heartfelt thanks to Osbasso for organizing and running it for almost seven years. That is a monumental achievement. [...]

Random Wednesday #64

Miscellaneous musings from the mind of Midwestern City Boy (and sometimes California Girl). Amazingly, the Bengals have a chance to make the playoffs this coming Sunday.  And, better still, they don’t need any funky scenarios, the just have to win. Of course, when the two best players are rookies, strange things happen. I go to [...]

Two For Tuesday – 322

Every year for Christmas, one or both of us receive a gift, typically clothing, that we would never buy for ourselves. This year, it was California Girl who received the floor length “grandma” nightgown. Even before we became empty nesters, we never had much any use for night clothes. We keep robes handy for the [...]

California Girl and I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas. A the best this holiday season. Midwestern City Boy & California Girl

HNT – 329

Thursday, December 22nd, 2011 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

As he does every year for the week of Christmas, Osbasso requested that everyone pick three HNT/blogger participants, but only three and then tell the world what you’d get them for Christmas, if you had the means to do so. We’ve done this every year since its inception and always pick three new people to [...]

Random Wednesday #63

Miscellaneous musings from the mind of Midwestern City Boy (and sometimes California Girl). I upgraded to the latest version of WordPress last Wednesday. It’s mostly the same as the previous version from a visitor’s perspective; but the administrative interface has been streamlined, and is a lot more compatible with Internet Explorer.  You probably noticed that [...]

Two For Tuesday – 321

Tuesday, December 20th, 2011 @ 7:25 pm | Photos, TFT | By: Midwestern City Boy

Out weekly photo sessions are mostly all fun and games; but, occasionally, there is some “work” to be done. Like change the batteries in the remote control. Or check California Girl the ingredients on the lubricant we we’re using. It was “not tested on animals” so presumably it was tested on people; which is probably [...]

HNT – 328

Thursday, December 15th, 2011 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

As he always does the third week of December, Osbasso requested that this week’s HNT feature a Christmas tree. We know that we’ve done silhouettes before; but we like that style for a Christmas tree HNT post. Plus we wanted to see how our new camera does in low light. We’ve also include a photo [...]

Random Wednesday #62

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011 @ 9:00 am | Random Wednesday | By: Midwestern City Boy

Miscellaneous musings from the mind of Midwestern City Boy (and sometimes California Girl). Our new camera is an Optio S1. We got it to replace the one that our screen went bad on. It doesn’t have all of the features; but it is the smallest camera that we have ever owned. (Which, of course, is [...]

In addition to the goodies from Pure Romance, we also got a new ultra compact digital camera. It doesn’t have as many features as our “main” camera; but it is a lot more portable. You can’t take any pictures if the camera was too inconvenient to carry; so, we always like to have a small, [...]
