Just got back from a very relaxing vacation in Cancun.  Great weather, great food, great drinks, and great staff.  Really the staff makes the experience so good with their extremely friendly attitudes.  I'd highly recommend the Royal Solaris Hotel in Cancun.  Just be prepared to walk because the elevators are in a constant state of repair.  Nice and clean hotel though overall.  Nice pool and tons of restaurants to check out.  Of course my wife and I prefer Rosmarinas, a tiki hut like restaurant right up against the ocean.  Open air with a thatches roof keeping you dry when it rains.  Out of all the restaurants, the staff at that one is the best.  They make sure you have fun, as long as you relax enough to be able to.

The night before we were leaving there was one heck of a storm system moving in.  One of the waiters joked that it was a hurricane, then told us he was just joking.  Well apparently he was more right than he thought:

A quick joke for all to enjoy:

There was this guy at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half of an hour.

Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down. The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says, "Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry."

"No, it's not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I go late to my office. My boss, outraged, fires me. When I leave the building, to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police said that they can do nothing. I get a cab to return home, and when I leave it, I remember I left my wallet and credit cards there. The cab driver just drives away."

"I go home, and when I get there, I find my wife in bed with the gardener. I leave home, and come to this bar. And just when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison."

Looks like some KFC employees might be making political statements.  Click the image for an enlarged view.

A few random, but funny pics just added:

   

The picture below has two identical dolphins in it. It was used in a case study on stress levels at the Mayo Clinic and later at Fletcher Medical Center in Burlington.

Look at both dolphins jumping out of the water. The dolphins are identical. A closely monitored, scientific study revealed that, in spite of the fact that the dolphins are identical; a person under stress will find many differences between the two dolphins.

The more differences a person finds, the more stress that person is experiencing.

Look at the photograph(can click it if you need a larger view) and if you find more than one or two differences, you may need to take a vacation.

 

I've migrated the site over to the latest version of Joomla, and in doing so decided to give it a bit of a redesign. Some features are gone, others changed, and others added so look around. There are likely to be a lot of changes over the coming days as I tweak the site to the look I want.

One of the biggest items that will likely be broken are the image links found in the Links section as I've replaced the image gallery with a slightly better and more configurable one.
