Analysis of visits

My google analytics wasn't analyticking anymore. I knnow I've had visitors, through your comments THANK YOU!, but I had at 0 visitations. The drop was a -42%, which saddens me greatly.

For those lurkers, from the places new a nd far, Welcome!

Couple of weekend thoughts.

Quantum of Solace review is below. The Little One absolutely loves the Puppet Theater and sings brand new Russian songs now, something that even makes me break out in a tune. I am one of those people that have a tune stuck in their head from the moment we wake up, unless its broken by an even more annoying tune.

On a sadder note, The Dog has suffered a professional sports injury with a torn ACL. Who was he trying to tackle i have no idea. We are taking him in for the second opionion tomorrow. The operation is expensive, and I don't want him to needlesly suffer from the whole procedure.

It seemed that at some point last year, he suffered the same injury, which coincided with general arthritis in his spine. The doctors didn't notice it, or maybe it was after it, we'll never know now, but he actually seemed to recover very well from this phantom one. Although a bit slowed down he was still running and jumping around, although not as much.

I am now practicing heavt lifting. The Animal weights currently 85 pounds, and refuses to sleep on a nice sofa in the living room, he would rather procrastinate close by us. So I resolved to carrying him up and down the six steps of stairs.

Poor guy, while I always complained about his somewhat loony disposition, you never really want your Labrador to slow down.

I've never placed a picture of him. So, everyone please welcome Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel, of Labrador Retriever family, chocolate brand.

Crazy ideas - UPDATED

Here's a crazy survey I thought off. If you had a time machine where would you travel first? Assuming the fact of course of universal invincibility. ----UPDATE---- As my brother mentioned, with time travel universally available getting rich schemes would be less than doable. My aim is more towards investigating great mysteries of history. Therefore: a. To the Big Bang b. To see an asteroid killing dinosaurs c. To see the exodus of Jews as it really happened d. Try to see if Jesus hubbub really happened e. Forget the past, I'd go to the year 2020 to see who winds World Series and place a bet accordingly. f. Suggested by Ilya . Back a day or to to purchase winning lottery ticket. e. Try to see if Atlantis existed. f. Travel to the future to see the explosion of our Sun. I am torn between the dinosaurs and the World Series. Please suggest the choices. Should I add Buddha and Muhammed to the list as well? From the curiousity stand-point. I still rather see the dinosaurs.

Weekend update

Finally some beautiful weather here in Chicago. We have decided to go to our regular hunting grounds at Lincoln Park Zoo. We slept well into the morning, picked up our good friends and in the company of four adults and three children went to see the animals. The photographer in me was screaming bloody murder to go out and make pictures. Thankfully my wife was very tolerant this time around with me running around like a madman taking picture of anything that moved. Lincoln Park Zoo is a great little place. It's free (if you don't consider $17 parking) they have all the animals kids love to see, and none of the animals where you stand scratching your head wondering how do you explain platipus to a 5-year-old. One bad thing that happened today, is I think i forgot to close the car, and somebody got in and stolen my Magellan GPS. Luckily nothing else was in the car, so other then that the car remained untouched. Unpleasant, but I have only myself to blame, and I think I'll live...

Sunday Night Blogging.

I used to hate olives. Really really hate them, to a point of gagging. I have recently tried on a personal dare to eat the big green greek olives with crap stuffed inside of them. Some think it's anchowies, some think it's salmon, i think it's pepper. I've bought a small cup of them yesterday. They were with peppers inside of them, little red jalapenos, sticking out a bit. For those of my readers who ever had a male dog, the picture is precisely what you are thinking. I am not saying anything else. BTW, the peppers were spicy, although not too spicy. My little one take a look at one of them and proudly declares: "Daddy, the chiken almost got out of that one!" And here's the offending fruit (berry? vegetable? what is an olive?) just before I devoured it.
