I Wish Starbuck Rolled With My Crew

Apparently Kara Thrace (call sign Starbuck) is leading Humankind to utter destruction, even though everyone thinks she's leading them to fame and glory on Earth.  This is of course only the story from an old man in a bathtub last night on BSG, so who knows... Today was obviously another chill day.  I wasn't even Albatrossbitten, so life is good.  There is a plane tomorrow bringing about 15 people out to count ALL of the albatross on Island.  It seems like a big job, I know.  Last year they counted nearly a million.  Can you believe that?  Anyway, there will probably be a little shindig at Captain Brooks tonight, so it's looking like light breezes out of the NW, partly cloudy, with a slight chance of Rage.  Here's some stuff that happened today:

This is my crew, from left to right: Nik Aspy, Ann Humphrey, Karen Guglielmone.  Watch your back or they will frack you up.

This may be the rarest bird on Midway currently.  Mallard is another one of those birds that really surprised me by being out here.

We Eat Goonybirds For Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all.  Yes, I got my rage on last night.  I smashed my previous 2 beer record with a whopping 7 beers!  I competed in the Midway Triathlon, which is ping pong, pool, and shuffleboard.  I won because of Physical Strength.  I then wobbled home on my bike, the Blue Beauty and PTFO (passedthefuckout), only to be rudely awakened by an earsplitting beeping alarm coursing through the house at 3:30AM.  I thought that it was a Tsunami warning and that I would certainly die.  Turns out the smoke alarms sometimes just go off for the hell of it and nobody knows how to turn them off.  A half an hour later, I finally got the situation under control and PTFO again.  When I woke up, it was 9:30!  A new sleeping record.  I missed breakfast.  Oh well.  I guess I'll just be extra hungry for the massive Thanksgiving dinner that the Thais are cooking up.  Shaka Bra and Mahalo.

This is a Red-tailed Tropicbird that is just about to fledge.  It's in black and white, so you know it's artistic.

These birds sometimes get the Bloodlust.  When they're in this state you must steer clear.  Unless of course you want to be devoured alive.
