Quick Response [QR] code

Ahoy matey. Do you know what QR codes are?

Well I hadn't paid much attention to them...Until recently. They are pretty darn neat things. Barcodes, the ones we all see on items, are one dimensional images. Because of this, they cannot contain much information. In fact, the standard barcode contains just 12 numbers. And all they can contain is numbers, period.

The new QR codes are two dimensional and can contain most any kind of information.

I created one yesterday with an online QR code generator. Here it is.

It is a link to my YouTube channel - Pirate Lifestyle TV.

That is right!! If you "read" this image with a mobile device like a smart phone, this image contains the information: http://www.youtube.com/user/PirateLifestyleTV

Wicked sweet. Don't you think so?

Have a look at them and play around with them.

Pelican Fishing the Lazy Way

This pelican was sitting next to boats in the marina and waiting for small fish to swim up along side the boats. Easy fishing!!! Rather than flying and diving on the fish, this one is smart and doing some easy fishing. Hahaha.

Birthday Morning Moon

Ahoy me hearties.

I stepped outside with the dogs this morning, to a clear sky and a just past setting full moon. So I snapped a photo with my iPhone (thank you Steve Jobs) and I am sharing it here.

It was around 7am, give or take a few minutes.

I hope you have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend too!

Arrrrrrr.

Grizzly Bear Warning Sign - Humor

Here are a couple of grizzly bears and a warning sign. Be sure to read ALL of the sign.

While living in Maine I had my share of bear encounters. Thankfully they all went well.

Another Pirate Law

Pirate Law: Dousing oneself in beer is a perfectly acceptable replacement for a shower.

I know many of you will consider this a waste of good beer...
