JAWing On – Life on Okinawa

Matt and the gang at WordPress have been very busy lately. You may have noticed, the site has changed slightly over the past two weeks. In that time period three, yes 3, upgrades have been installed. Today, I upraded to the latest version of WordPress, Ella (a.k.a. 2.1). If you run into any bugs or problems, please let me know. Thank you.

Okay, since yesterday the sky has returned to the normal winter doldrum hues. Luckily, I captured enough pics of that gorgeous morning we had the other day…

A large black cloud looms menacingly on the horizon above the island fauna conjuring images of the inevitable onslaught of tiny bullets of condensation to be released at any moment…

One of the morning shows had a brief report on the strong likelihood of natural redheads of the world (the largest population resides in the U.S.) being extinct within 100 years. I wonder if that entitles us to an “endangered species” catagorization?

Island weather can be very unpredicatable and on exceptional mornings the sun illuminates the entire sky with a brilliant golden hue.

Humor, it is a curious thing. Most people would agree that to have a “sense” of one is an important factor to survival in our modern, hectic, and stress-filled existence. What seems to differ is exactly what each individual finds humorous. As for me when it comes to “jokes”, if I can honestly say I would find the situation humorous if I were the person that the “joke” were being played on…that’s funny. Otherwise, in my eyes the so-called joke is probably mean-hearted and the intentions are just plain cruel. How about you? What do you call “funny”?
