Unsuccessful Lightning Photo
See the lightning captured in the picture? Neither do I. And that’s my failed attempt at capturing lightning during a recent lightning show.

Not Quite a Mini Mjolnir
I really don’t feel like the God of Thunder with this mini Mjolnir hammer.
Maybe that’s a difference between Asians and a Norse god.
An Almost Rainbow Circle
Forget the double rainbow, forget the mystical unicorn, and definitely forget planking. A rainbow circle is the next thing. I thought I experienced a rainbow circle and managed a partial picture.
Alas, a rainbow is technically seen opposite the sun. So this picture can’t be a rainbow, just a refraction of light. Oh the sadness.
Gotta Try the Dam Diner
With a name like the Dam Diner, you have to give this eatery a try. Down the street from the San Joaquin Hatchery with a view of Friant Dam, the nondescript diner sits there on the side of the road.
On the menu, you can find typical American comfort food along with the Dam Specials and some other oddities. For the best of the menu, check out the Dam Diner’s reviews on Yelp.
I had to try their namesakes, the Dam Burger with curly fries and a chocolate shake. The burger tasted fresh, the curly fries were like any other curly fries, and the shake was good and even better since they gave all the extra shake.
If you happen to be in the Friant area, you must eat at the Dam Diner. Just overlook the misspelling of “Fraint.”

A Volt in the Wild
Parked next to us was this different looking car. I couldn’t recognize it off-hand, and no wonder. It’s a new electric Chevy Volt that I’d never seen in person. But there it was, spotted in the wild.
The Grouchy Passenger Has Good Dental Hygiene
Remember that Grouchy Passenger? Well, I give him this. He has good dental hygiene. After eating on the flight, he brought out dental floss and proceeded to clean his teeth.
Then he threw the used floss on the floor. Yep, see.
Sorry, the picture is blurry, but I had to rely on my iPhone’s digital zoom to double check what I thought I amazingly witnessed.
You Don’t See This Everyday
Now, here’s something you don’t see everyday. Check out this sign.
And yes, this is indeed a special sequoia forest – there’s even a Starbucks at the end of it!
Entertainment Old School
This is how I rock my entertainment old school, my fat Nano and Klondike solitaire.
They Do Exist
So… Corian toilet seats really do exist. They’re custom jobs, but it can be done.
Maybe this is a roundabout way of fixing my Corian counter conundrum (sans flames) and get my costs over $1000. 😉
Timberlake or Bieber?
Who is the definitive Justin? Is it elder Timberlake or youngster Bieber. JB may be gangsta, but Timberlake is “been there, done that.” And he knows how to generate laughs. Check out Justin T. on SNL along with Gaga.
Bring it on down to Liquorville!
