Well, coed astronomy has applied to Ghost Patrol. I was going to wait until we knew whether or not we got in to post a link to our app, but everyone's been discussing app videos on the_game mailing list anyway. So here it is:

I'm sure you can guess which segment is mine. Bonus points if you can tell me where each of the sounds comes from.
It's been confirmed, Narita airport got me sick both coming and going. Thanks, Japan.
The honeymoon is totally awesome, but cheap interwebs and power adapters are hard to find. I'll post much more once I'm back in the states.
Just in time for our honeymoon, Linnsey and I just completed our 4 open water certification dives this past weekend for our scuba certification! It was freezing and there was terrible visibility, but we still had a lot of fun. Knowing that conditions in Bali would be vastly better was a pretty good incentive to get to Monterey by 6:45am each day and into that frigid water.
The highlight of the dives for me was seeing a cormorant skim the bottom at 25 feet in search of fish. Since seeing this in the BBC's Planet Earth documentary, I've thought this was the coolest thing ever (they can fly, and they can swim!), and I've wanted to see it in person. I tried to point it out to Linnsey, but she didn't look in time. Hopefully we'll get to see it again.
My first impressions of married life are that it involves a lot of sneezing and makes your living room smell like poultry seasoning. Who'd have known the spice rack Linnsey put on the gift registry would come with 15 impossible to open bags of spices that you have to try to pour into the jars?
On the plus side, we've got the airline tickets for our honeymoon in Bali! =)
So what'd you do last weekend, Dale?
Oh, I dunno. I went to the beach, hung out with a few friends.
Anything else?
Oh yeah, I got married! It was awesome, and it was so great to have so many friends and family in Hawaii to celebrate with us. I'll post pictures, puzzles, and more when I've had a chance to recuperate.
