New Aston Martin Vanquish
















Given the demise of the Aston Martin DBS, the company announced their new flagship - Vanquish.

It comes with a 6.0 liter V12 that puts out 565 hp. I need one of these :-)

Sauber F1 Cutaway



The Sauber F1 team cut one of their F1 cars in half in order to better demonstrate the internal components and how they work.

This is very cool indeed!

Baby Skunk














This was a hilarious situation!

Emily has been telling me about this baby skunk in our neighborhood for the last few days. When we came home from dinner we saw him in a neighbors front yard. The lighting wasn't good at all but I took my little Canon out and took his photo. The photo didn't turn out great so I got down on the ground for a better shot. I was about one foot away from him when I took this photo. This baby skunk looked up at me with a grub in his mouth and went back to what he was doing.

The funny thing was that Emily took a photo of me taking this photo. She said that she was going to title her photo 'What he was doing when he got sprayed.' :-)

Luckily, I didn't get sprayed and this baby skunk went back to eating his grub. He was very cute!

Boo Boo In A Box














Boo Boo loves boxes. To the untrained eye, this might look easy. Finding a box that a 19 pound, 36 inch long Maine Coon can actually fit in if often a trick. When such a box does come into the house, Boo Boo gets excited. :-)
