Backpacking through Japan - Day 1

This is a travel blog about backpacking in Japan. Instead of writing about it, however, I am going to be lazy and just let the pictures talk. :) Enjoy!

And the journey begins!

Watch Penny for NASA's Latest Video

I have to apologize for being a little late with this, but I was unavailable in the past month due to some overseas traveling. This video is from the non profit organization, Penny for NASA, and I think is quite relevant (as always when it comes to science and technology). The video has been released a couple of weeks ago; so, I am a little late for the game, but I wanted to mention post anyway. Enjoy and share!

Lord of the Rings LCG Box Separators

A couple years ago, I made the above separaters for the Lord of the Rings card game and would now like to offer them for download (for the best results, print them out on good quality photo paper and glue them on cardboard sheets for extra strength).
