Well, things are winding down here on our birthday week at tahoe. We skied our last day today at Northstar, our sixth, with one day before that at Sierra. I think my body is finally demanding a break, so it’s probably for the best. As usual, a pictorial record of all the fun can be found at the gallery.

so much fun!
Clare sent me this hilarious animation created to accompany a real transcript of a call Lyndon Johnson made to Haggar to request a few custom pairs of pants:
We’ve reached the point now where we get all our TV and movies from the internet, and so we don’t have a cable subscription. This setup is fine except for every so often when we want to watch something live–sports or awards shows (okay, when Leslie wants to watch awards shows). In these cases we head to a friend’s house or a bar. But not anymore!
It occurred to me that it couldn’t be that complicated to corral some radio waves into my TV’s built-in digital tuner. Right? So I plugged an old FM antenna and I got some pretty crappy reception. Thankfully, the internet was ready to instruct me how a piece of wood and six coat hangers was all I needed for HDTV sports utopia. You can see the result above.
The thing works great! It enabled me to watch the Rangers get crushed live and in person. Hooray! I guess.
Doug got to borrow a Tesla Roadster last week, and he brought it by Clare and Andrew’s place to show it off. We were clearly pleased.

Sweet. Ugly gold rims, but it must have been too cool to drive.

Ugly but expensive.
We spent last week with friends in Maui. Just, wow.
Days were mostly spent recreating Corona commercials, snorkeling, and eating huge quantities of food. Check out the gallery for the full story.

Great photos, thanks for sharing! Perhaps I must take Johanna some time…
