You’ll notice on the top left corner of this page a little widget that links to our virtually live broadcast. For those of you that haven’t noticed yet.. are there any?  We’ve teamed up with uStream.tv to put on a live streaming broadcast.  Our show schedule is still a bit sketchy as we iron out a few technical glitches, but our Live Page will have the latest programming information.  Keep the link handy, you never know what you’ll catch me doing!

Also don’t forget our webcam page, this is a traditional low-bandwidth webcam that snaps random images at random times of whatever the camera happens to be aiming.

wplogo.gifNothing to see here folks move along.  We just upgraded this site to the 2.3.1 release of wordpress which appears to be a security fix.  If you haven’t guess by now, I’m a huge wordpress fan!  Wordpress is the least aggrivating script I’ve ever worked with.  Rarely do I have issues with it and when they do creep in it’s usually my own fault.

In other news.. I’ve been working behind the scenes on PaulMonaco.tv - And as the name implies…  yup.. video.   As of late I’ve been a bit addicted to playing with low resolution video which mostly resides on my SingSnap and YouTube.  I decided to bring them together into their own domain and do some custom content as well.  Stay tuned!

With such a cute name George Curious, how could I resest hunting this cache down!

Well, after watching this video you’ll agree that maybe I should have done this one on a different day.  I actually picked this cache because it had pretty much guaranteed me a nice 3 mile hike and excercise is certainly something I can use!

It started off very well on  our Rail to Trails network and was only about a thenth of a mile off the main trail, it should have been reasonably easy.

Not even half way up though I realized I didn’t have my cell phone with me anymore.  I know I left a twitter message when I started but couldn’t remember if that was from the car or en route.  The more I walked the more I belived it fell out of my pocket and that pretty much occupied my mind.

When I got to the location it was very uncomfortable.  The nice spring I was looking for had apparantly turned into a tick infested pool of stagnent water.  I looked but honestly between being bummed about my phone and being eaten alive by who knows what, my heart just wasn’t into it.  So I wrapped up and headed back to the car hoping to find my phone along the way.. which I didn’t

When I got home my house phone was ringing.. caller ID said it was me!!!  “Hello?  You found my phone!!!!?”  Turns out a homeless man was on the trail with his bicycle travelling back to the homeless shelter when he found my phone.  I was saavy enough to look at the address book and call the entry labeled “home” and ta da!!!!  So I drove to the shelter to retrieve my phone and give him a nice little reward which I think he really appreciated.

Looks like a little buddhism at work here, turning the poison of an uncomfortable treck through the woods into medicine by exchange goodwill with someone less fortunate.  NMRK
