::SCAM ALERT::

If you receive an email like this from one of your contacts please ignore it as it's a scam to attempt to get your money... I've received this a few times now so I figured I'd go ahead and share it publicly to help prevent people from harm. Note that the letter is slightly different in some instances but follows this storyline:

I'm writing this with tears in my eyes,We came down here to England for a short vacation and i was mugged at gun point last night,at the park of the hotel where we lodged all cash,creditcards and cell were stolen off me, thank God we have our life and passport.

I've been to the embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues at all,they asked us to wait for 3weeks but we can't wait till then. Our flight leaves in less than 3hrs from now and we are having problems settling the hotel bills.

The hotel manager won't let us leave until we settle the hotel bills.
we are freaked out at the moment

you can wire the money to me through westernunion all you need is Name
on my passport and location below.

Name: {Friend's Name}
Location:60 Hyde Park Gate - Kensington London sw7 5bb Kingdom
Amount: $2,250

I'll def refund your cash as soon as i get home.

Esau Wood saws wood

All of the wood Esau saw, Esau sought to saw. And oh, the wood-saw with which Wood would saw wood. But one day Wood's wood-saw would saw no wood. Thus the wood, Wood would saw was not the wood Wood would saw if Wood's wood-saw would saw wood. So Esau sought a wood-saw that would saw wood. One day Esau saw a wood-saw saw wood as no other wood-saw would saw wood. And I never saw a wood-saw saw wood like the wood-saw Wood saw saw wood until I saw Esau Wood saw wood with the wood-saw that would saw wood. Now Wood, saws wood with a wood-saw that would saw wood.

My Grandma gave me a piece of paper with this little gem on it, I think my grandfather used to have this memorized...

San Francisco

Some of you know that I was in San Francisco last week for work. We spent a lot of time in a conference room making great progress. At the end of the day 1 day we got to go downtown San Francisco and eat on the pier. After that we got a chance to hang out a little bit in the downtown area. I really enjoyed the little time I had there to shoot photos and we had a great tour guide Suzanne :) .

Being in the Downtown gave me the chance to take some photos. I thought I'd share them with you.
