I don’t usually get into these blogging meme things, but this one is kind of fun. Create your own totally random album cover! Here are the rules… Go to Wikipedia’s random article page. The first article you get is the name of your band. Go to the Random Quotations page. The last four words of…
Didn’t have much to say over the weekend, as Amanda and I were busy landscaping the whole time. The good news is that the backyard looks great now and should be in fine shape for the big party on the 4th. I still have a long list of things I’d like to get done before…
Amanda and I recently stayed at a Bed & Breakfast near Rochester called Springdale Farm. It was small with only two guest rooms and a single open dining/living room, but nice and reasonably priced. Since Deeva was asking about my photography yesterday, I thought I’d share a couple of my most recent photos. Nothing spectacular,…
Last December, I was sitting in a hotel room in San Antonio flipping through channels on the TV when I ran across this guy shouting, throwing chairs, and banging on an array of sound effects buttons. That in itself isn’t all that peculiar in the age of Jerry Springer. What was is that he was…
A few months ago, nobody would have expected the New York Times to evict him from their candidate tracker. He was the mayor of what city again?
If you get an envelope that looks like this in the mail: This is actually NOT junk mail, despite the fact that it doesn’t look like anything important. Your monthly bill is in there, right behind the full page ad for Home Phone, which interestingly enough has nothing to do with PhotoShowTV. You’re welcome.
Hi! I write you for different reasons. The first one to tell you I enjoyed your pics from Belgium. I went there last year and I think it’s an awesome place. The other reason is because we share the same lastname, this is: Punaro. I am mexican, and back there all the people that share this lastname are the descendents of the late Mr. José Asuncion Punaro (this is my grandfather from my mother’s side). The funny thing is that we don’t know the origen of the Punaro name. So, each time I have a chance, I seach to see if by any chance I find a clue. Some time ago I was told it is from northen Italy. Do you have an idea? Thank and hope you don’t bother for using this space that I imagine it’s reserved for your family and close friends.
The name does originate in Italy. Somewhere, I have some images of Ellis Island records of my ancestors coming over to the U.S. I’ll post them when I have a chance. I do not know where the Mexican branch would have started!
