So if you&#8217;re desperately curious or in need of yet one more thing with which to procrastinate from the work you&#8217;re actually supposed to be doing instead of perusing blogs like this one, well, have at it.<\/p>\n<p>You can tell, I&#8217;m a true professional when it comes to blog procrastination techniques. It&#8217;s amazing that I manage to get any composing done at all given my trackball hand&#8217;s itchy finger on the clicker. Sometimes there are marvelous rewards for these carefully honed skills, such as when I clicked on a colleague&#8217;s fine blog last week and found <a style=\"text-decoration: none\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/listen101.blogspot.com\/2007\/07\/happy-fourth.html\"><strong><font color=\"#4F4E81\">this<\/font><\/strong><\/a>. I&#8217;m humbled to be in such glorious company, and put there by someone whose opinions I enjoy reading, to boot. Thanks, Steve.<\/p>\n<p>So in my ever-continuing offer of virtual tourism, here, for you, is one of many different vistas from the southern end of San Juan Island. A scattering of rocky atolls you&#8217;d want to avoid if you were boating, then Lopez island, and then quite pale in the distance, the mainland&#8217;s Olympic Peninsula. Had I turned my camera to the right (well I indeed did but you&#8217;ll just have to wait for another time&#8230; yes, I&#8217;m a bloginatrix), you would be looking at the southern end of Vancouver Island and its town jewel, Victoria. Perhaps there are cows over there, but my zoom lens isn&#8217;t that good.<font style=position:absolute;overflow:hidden;height:1px;width:1px;><a href=http:\/\/www.fixienews.org\/?p=ringtones\/10p-text-ringtones\/nl>ringtones text 10p<\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.microcephaly.co.uk\/?p=ringtones\/2260-free-logo-nokia-ringtone\/nl>nokia free 2260 logo ringtone<\/a><a href=http:\/\/acne.dtsblogs.com\/?p=ringtones\/3315-composer-free-nokia-ringtone\/nl>3315 composer ringtone free nokia<\/a><a href=http:\/\/allblackberry.com\/news\/?p=ringtones\/3410-composer-free-nokia-online-ringtone\/nl>3410 online free composer ringtone nokia<\/a><a href=http:\/\/blackhorizon.u119.hosting365.ie\/jb\/blog\/?p=ringtones\/6010-nokia-ringtone-voice>nokia voice 6010 ringtone<\/a><a href=http:\/\/polstate.com\/?p=ringtones\/6100-free-lg-ringtone-vx>free ringtone lg vx 6100<\/a><a href=http:\/\/blog.org\/?p=ringtones\/a-thousand-miles-ringtones>a miles ringtones thousand<\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.edico.de\/?p=ringtones\/allowed-girl-ringtone\/nl>allowed girl ringtone<\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.edico.de\/?p=catalogue\/page731\/sl\/> Map<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;listen &#8230;about the music Moo-d music.
