Thanksgiving

November 25th, 2004

Thus passes another Thanksgiving. Mom, Dad, and I ate out at The Black Angus by the beach as usual. Their Thanksgiving buffet is fenomenal! Now I'm fasting until we travel to Waynesboro, VA for another feast on Saturday. Time to start making this year's Christmas card…

Batten Library Gallery

November 12th, 2004

Thanks to Ms. Booton and with some help from Nick Cox, I have posted 14 of my photos in the Batten Library at Norfolk Academy :D. Nick also hung a wonderful selection of his photos. Our 'photo gallery' is in the hallway by the Upper School next to Landmark and the Lyons Room. Look at some of the photos and tell me what you think.

It's Here! Firefox 1.0

November 9th, 2004

The day has arrived. After a long period of development, Firefox version 1.0 has been released! Every one reading this should go to getfirefox.com immediately and download the next generation web browser that is far safer and more feature packed than Internet Explorer and just about any other browser on this planet!!

Total Lunar Eclipse

October 27th, 2004

I hope you went out and saw the lunar eclipse Wednesday night. It was a nice night in Chesapeake. It looks like NASA is planning a robotic exploration of the moon. See NASA's website for more information. (By the way, that photo is mine, not NASA's :p)

Sleepy Hollow

October 22nd, 2004

Tonight was Opening Night!! The cast, crew, and audience had lots of fun during the energetic, spooky performance. I posted the candids I took before and after the show. More photos to come, especially of the traditional Olive Garden dinner on Saturday! (too bad we can't give Zach a birthday cake anymore :p)

Firefox

October 21st, 2004

I have been spreading the word about Firefox, the Mozilla organization's free web browser. Firefox outperforms Internet Explorer in every way. It even rivals Safari on Mac OS X! I suggest you all give Firefox a try. A Windows download is only 4.5 MB. (Mac OS X is 8.4 MB and Linux is ~8.1MB)

NA Homecoming 2004

October 16th, 2004

Good news at Homecoming. We won the varsity football and soccer games. There was a decent crowd, and everyone seemed to have fun. The dance could have been better, but, all in all, the day went rather well.

Senior trip to DC

October 13th, 2004

I just finished uploading the photos of our Norfolk Academy Senior trip to Washington DC. We visited the Holocaust Memorial Museum, several war memorials, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Be sure to check out the changing of the Honor Guard and our wreath laying ceremony!

Halloween Coffeehouse

October 6th, 2004

The Halloween installment of Norfolk Academy's Coffeehouse took place today. It was my first chance to really test my new EOS 20D. The event, sponsored by NA's Lit. Magazine staff and the Happy Club, allowed many students (and Mr. Wilson!) to share poetry and music in front of their peers. View the photographs here!

Eric = Happy!!

October 2nd, 2004

Today is a beautiful day! I just bought a Canon EOS 20D 😀 I can't wait to try this awesome piece of engineering out in the field. Now would be a really good time to hire me :p
