Movie via webcam

So the library here has recently purchased some netbooks for individuals to check out while at the library. I have checked one out to see if it is any good. It actually runs quite well for how small it is. The overall form factor is just a tad too small though to do some serious work on it, but for basic stuff it is sufficient.

Anywho here is a video i made with the on-board webcam.

Nice Cold Weather

So the weather has began to get colder. The average for the mornings is in the sixties and the evenings are in the seventies. The weather has leveled off for the time being, but I suspect that it will dip again in the following weeks. I hope the winter does not come early. We have been told that it either will be a really warm winter or a really really bad one.

Stephen (me) is slowly learning to drive the Kim's stick-shift vehicle. Mostly out of necessity as Kim has been under the weather the past few days. It is not so much the driving that is the issue, but 1st gear that has been giving me issues. If I didn't keep stalling in first, then I would be a decent driver. On the way to Wal-Mart last night I stalled twice near our block and some neighbors were laughing because it was obvious what was going on. In my personal opinion, all cars should be automatic. Sigh, oh well. I guess I will have to master the vehicile eventually.
