Moment to rember

This pass weekend was my Birthday! I recieved a great Birthday present from my son, who is only two and half. Maybe I find it, so great because I'm his dad. Either way the feeling i got was truly amazing.

During the week a kid in his class had a Birthday. So he came home with a new song to sign, the "Happy Birthday" song. It was cute hearing him sign it, because when he got to the kids name, it was emphised alot. "Happy birthday to RAAAY" to funny!

When Saturday came, and I heard him signing, I told him "it's Dadas birthday tomorrow, when you wake up you can say happy birthday Dada". I really wasn't exspecting it.

My wife, and I take turns getting up on the weekends. She woke up Saturday, so it was my turn. I heard him wake up, so I got up did the usual routine brought him down stairs, changed his diaper, put the tv on, fed him breakfast, and then began to play.

He spotted the guitar for guitar Hero III, and wanted to play. I started to set it up, and while I was on the floor trying to figure out way it wasn't working, he put his hand on my shoulder and said "happy birthday dada".

I don't have this moment on video but I did capture him signing to me in the car. Enjoy!


Skid Plates complete!

Finally I recieved the rest of my Skid plates for my Yamaha Raptor 700. I originally picked out all DG brand skid plates, I'm the type that likes to stick with one brand. Unfortunatley my parts were delayed a month out, and I didn't want chance riding with out them, so I went with AC Racing for the chasis and swing arm.

The installation was easy too!

A-arms:
Each side consisted of three bolts that tightened a clamp securing the plate to the A -arm.

Chasis:
Remove the old skid plate four bolts. Then remove the bottom two bolts that hold the bumper on. Then slide the new Skid plate between the bumper and the frame. Put the orginall bumper bolts back. I then placed the four long blots through where the orginal bolts went, sliding the spacer on to the bolts from the back. I then started threading hand threading them. Once they are all started I began tighting them down. I would sugest Loc-Tite.
The last two bolts act as clamps holding it to the frame.

Swing arm:
Remove the old skid plate, only four bolts. Atatch the new skid plate with the new four bolts into the originall holes. All done, now through on that NO FEAR sticker, and don't worry about those giant boulders waiting to destroy your ATV!



Skid plates

I decided I would ad some skid plates for my Raptor. I have been riding for a few years, and have noticed how much, of a beaten, the under carrige, of a ATV gets. Trails are filled with many obsticles, which may include climbing over boulders, and logs. Skid plates will help keep these obsticles from denting, and bending, your A-arms, swing arm, and frame.

MyBlogLog

I added MyBlogLog!

On the right underneath My Zannel, you may have noticed MyBlogLog recent readers list. This is another social site, great for gaining exposure. While surfing other members blogs your picture will be added to their recent visitors list. Normally, in return they will check out your blog, if you are lucky enough they may find your work interesting and join your community or communities!

Snap Shots

Today I added Snap Shots to my blog!

I have to admit I don't know everything about it.

It has revenue sharing again not sure how it works, for now I set mine to charity. I picked Autism Speaks, because it's in the field in which my wife works.I will keep you posted on this as I learn more about it.

I do know, I like how it will display a picture of where a link will bring you. For example here is a link to my Facebook. This is a great feature I can't tell you how many times I followed a link, and then had to hit the back button.

Zannel ( what is it? )

Just added Zannel to my Facebook, Myspace, Blogspot, Flickr and Twitter. I'm not done yet either! it will work with Wordpress, Live Journel, Typepad, and many more! So what is it?

It's a way of sharing your life as it happens. you can use your cell phone, and send text, pictures, or videos, thruogh MMS, or e-mail, to your Zannels account email. You may also update it from a pc. These become like little blog entries, there is even a spot for people to leave comments.


Some things to note:

* Twitter will update the text and link to the photo or video.
* Flickr will upload the photos and videos but not the text.

Not another blog!

OK, ok, I know how many blogs am I going to make. If you really want to know, ask Mr. Owl! This particular blog is going to be my main blog. Wheather it's about Lil Rob, Hector, My ATV, or any Programs I'm trying out, it will be hear.

Don't get me wrong, I am still going to make new blogs, and post to some of my old ones. So why this one? I want my other blogs to be a niche blog, be geared to a particular subject. This way people surfing the web, for Bull Terriers, come across Hectors blog they can subscribe, and not be bothered with my other topics. The other good thing is the ads will be focused on what my readers are looking for, which can make me and my sponsors more money.
