Did not realize this, but "Live Search" looks pretty neat with the background picture and the info boxes that come up when you hover your mouse pointer over the image.

Ok, that was it! :-p

Test #2

This is my first post using my Sprint HTC Touch Pro.

New phone - and it works!!!

Last Friday I decided to get myself something good. Spend a few bucks and got my self a new Sprint HTC Touch Pro. It is like having a mini pc in your pocket (hence the meaning "pocket pc").

It is loaded with the "Windows Mobile 6.1" and the new "TouchFlo 3D". The phone is amazing. You can do just about anything you normally do with your PC.

"Survivor" - the possum

This is the story of a mother Possum; nicknamed "Survivor", by my little sister Sasha.

About a month an a half ago I was heading out the house to go to work around 7:35am and I see this possum just wondering around the front yard of the next house. I could see that it was making funny noises and it was acting like it didn't see me. As I got close I noticed that it was bleeding through nose and mouth. Blood was all over the sidewalk. Apparently the possum got hit by a car earlier in the morning and it just lost it's senses. It couldn't see. The car hit it so hard in the head that both its eyes got damaged. It had difficulties breathing. And it just sat there doing nothing but trying to breath. We tried calling a few places in our city that had to do with animal control, but no luck. No one ever came. Three days this possum spent sitting or laying down in the grass in plain view of everyone just trying to keep it self alive. We gave it food and water but it never ate or drank anything. It was really sad to see this possum in such painful condition and we were wishing that it was better for it have died when that car hit it rather than staying with an agonizing pain. Three days outside, without being able to see, eat; out in the cold wind, and hard rain. After she that it just disappeared. We looked around the empty house and our yard, and nothing. The possum somehow left.

Now just a couple days ago, my mom went to the back yard and saw the possum. It's a miracle! The possum was alive,... and with a big surprise. The possum is a mom of seven baby possums. The will to survive and to leave her legacy. She is not a quitter. That's why my little sister named her "Survivor".

My little sister started searching the internet for someone who might be able to help this possum cause we weren't sure if it was going to make it longer to take care of her babies. On her condition, she looked skinnier and dehydrated. And that's not good for the babies or they could die as well. So my sister got a hold of a phone number that my mom then called and it just happened to be a person that is an expert in possums. She gave us a few instructions and tips on how to get the possum in a cage. Surprisingly, possums make a creepy hiss if they feel threatened and they show you their teeth, but they don't bite at all! So my dad, my brother, Sasha, and me grabbed a cage, a pizza box, and started slowly pushing the possum back inside and making sure that the babies wouldn't fall out of the mother's pouch. She didn't make a noise. She behave really well. We got her inside the cage and the following day my mom and dad took the "Survivor" the possum to our local community college where they were going to meet the lady that was going to take care of the possum and her babies.

It felt really good to see how God's little creatures have a strong will to survive and mostly to protect their little ones. "Survivor" is truly a miracle! How she made it all this time without being able to see, eat or drink, or anything... we don't know; but someone surely was watching over this little creature all this time; and her strong will to bring her little ones to this world it's very touching.

The lady who took "Survivor" will be giving us updates on her condition and her babies.
