Word Cloud creator Feb 25

You know those cool word clouds that folks have on webpages to show the most popular of words? Well now you can make your own at www.wordle.net. Paste in your own text and see what comes of it. Try your resume!

Here is one that was a sample already there, I believe it is from Obama’s speech last night.  Pretty interesting I think.

Save the Planet… er… wallet Apr 24

The Expedition now has 175K miles on it and is getting around 12-14 MPG running back and forth to STL. Once a week I have to fill up and with our new lovely gas prices, this costs me about $100 per fill up.

So, I decided, it was time to “save the environment”!! <ok… save the leather wallet at least> I picked up a beautiful used bike. It’s a 2005 Yamaha V-Star 1100 with only 3500 miles on it. This should get me somewhere in the neighborhood of 40-50 mpg. Evan loves the bike and especially likes the flames.
