Does the 10 second rule still apply in Africa?

Eating popcorn while writing up a report, two pieces slipped from my hand and hit the floor.

Too eat or not to eat, that is the question.

The case against eating:
- There is dirt on the floor
- It would be a bit gross

The case for eating:
- It's popcorn
- The floor was washed this morning
- I already saw an ant crawling in the bowl, so at this point what is a little dirt?
- Two pieces are a lot to lose. (I was only given a handful)
- It would be a waste of food
- It's popcorn!

The evidence is clear.
I ate the popcorn.
A little extra organic material never hurt anyone... hopefully.

Photo Booth

For those of you not familiar with Mac computers, they all come with a fun little photo program called Photo Booth where you can not only take pictures with your computer, but also add fun effects. Here is a snapshot of what happens when kids discover this wonder. Enjoy!

Flight Risk

Remaining in the US for the past 16 months my friends have known me as one thing in particular: a flight risk.

In fact, shortly after returning to the US I made a trip across the Canadian border and was instantly met with comments about how I just returned home only to leave again. What can I say, I love discovering new places and cultures! (not to mention traveling)

I am officially on the road again though, making my way to India and then on to southern Africa where I will be residing for the foreseeable future.
