Pictures taken with my Fuji FinePix 4700 Zoom digital camera.

dadchopcoco.wmv Here's a video clip of my dad demonstrating how he chops open a coconut (112 kb - these are all in super low quality for us modem users out there). If you can't play it by just left-clicking, right-click and save the file to your computer.
dadspillcoco.wmv A video clip of peeling open the coconut before we devoured the juice (48 kb).
2poohs.JPG Two Poohs! But mine's cuter. =)
2poohs2.JPG Richard really wanted me to buy him his long lost twin. OK, so it was 50% off, but still, it was $50!
galleriaroofnite.JPG The night view from the roof of the Galleria.  Look at all that traffic we were about to face.
iahtraffic.JPG Traffic going into IAH to pick up my brother.
howardacuarms.JPG Howard was desperate enough to agree to this.
howardacuwhole.JPG Here, Howard tries to smile even though I've got him  pinned down with about a dozen acupuncture needles. =)
howardacu.wmv Here's a video clip of an interview with Howard. I had to do it while he had his needles in or else I'd never be able to get him to say anything positive! =) (you NEVER EVER say mean things to someone who has the power to needle you =) (217 kb)
howardsmell.wmv Here's a video interview of Howard after he farted - and it smelled REALLY bad (80 kb). Oh by the way, these 2 videos are really hard to understand cuz Howrad had lost his voice. 
ifan.JPG Ifan's spacious window office at ExxonMobil.
annieifan.JPG L-R: Annie, Ifan.
3gals.JPG L-R: Annie, Ifan, me.
ifanworkhard.JPG Ifan pretending to work hard. How could you possibly work when you've got that beautiful view outside? I'd just sit there and stare out the window all day =)
texaco1.JPG These are a series of shots near my house in TX. Birds for some reason congregate in huge numbers in one place around sunset. This is the corner of Hwy 6 and Kirkwood.
texaco2.JPG A closer shot of the corner of Hwy 6 and Kirkwood.
texaco3.JPG And yet a closer shot of the corner of Hwy 6 and Kirkwood.
heb2.JPG More birds. These ones are also at the corner of Hwy 6 and Kirkwood, but in front of the HEB supermarket.  The birds look like leaves on the trees, there's so many!
heb3.JPG A closer shot of the bird leaves. I feel sorry for that dude parked under there.
heb1.JPG And yet a closer shot of the bird leaves.
elaineanniecaro.JPG At Kimson chowing down. Actually I was the only one chowing down. =) Annie got a fortune in her fortune cookie saying something like, "Don't let a 3rd party sway your decision." So fitting. L-R: Elaine, Annie, me.
mikepatcaro.JPG If you went to the University of Texas @ Austin, you tend to bump into people in the Houston area. We were at Coco's Cafe. I couldn't remember Michael's name but he took one look at me and said, "Hey, didn't you play ping pong at UT?" Dang. L-R: Michael, Patrick, me.
yellowbotton.JPG At a Shell gas station on Dairy Ashford and Airport Blvd. "Please! Don't make me push the yellow BOTTON!!!"
