Halloween Watermelon

Today is Halloween! I was waiting for this day for a long time. We went to get a pumpkin to carve but there were none left so we went to our other option... carve a watermelon. This is the second time I've done this and it always turns out just as good as a pumpkin.

Pigeons!

We were at a Costco in Santa Clara and we saw many pigeons in the weirdest place, a tree. They were eating the hard round seeds. The last picture is the best...

Gray Apartment Cat

A cute gray cat wandering around and posing for my pictures.


Black Widow

I found a big black widow. Seriously, the thing was huge. It was carrying a huge egg sack. The remains of what it had eaten were on the floor.

Pentax Optio W90 Test - Match

Using the "Digital Microscope" mode of the Pentax Optio W90 to look at a match...



Just a Decoration...

My neighbors had this decoration set up for Halloween. The problem is that it looks very real and it scares me every time I pass by. I think I even saw it look at me once... Who even buys these things??? Not to mention, these people have little kids in the house. I mean, I would hate to have one of those things in my house, wouldn't you?

Mommy Hook?

I found this in Bed Bath and Beyond. Who ever thought of the name " The Mommy Hook?" The thing is huge! It's about 8 inches long! Apparently, it's supposed to be able to hook onto things like strollers so that the "mommy" is able to hook bags and things on it. I don't know, maybe it's actually useful.

Me, the Human Whale

This is a video of me swimming in a swimming pool taken with my really cool waterproof camera (the Pentax OptioW90). We slowed it down, then added some really cool whale sounds.
