Web Surfing from the Bahamas
I am in the Bahamas at a conference and my cell phone doesn’t work…at all. I guess I should have taken notes about Metroxing’s post of SIM cards, eh?

Note that the title bar reads “Google Bahamas”. The url reads “http://www.google.bs/” which I thought was some hacker joke until I remembered where I was surfing from (gotta get out to the pool and stop working for a while it seems).
I think I could use some more of these:
Kalik is one of the local beers of the Bahamas…it is a better tasting Corona and doesn’t need a lime. Seeing this photo worried me though…isn’t that a guy drinking a beer in the cockpit? Life rules certainly work differently down here.
