UPDATE: This critter is actually a young Ant Damsel Bug (Himacerus mirmicoides).
It Ain’t Easy Bein’ a Duck ’round Here
This afternoon, while taking a break from writing code, I watched a young duck mis-judge the current and get swept over the Sixth Street Bridge dam. Fortunately, ducks are quite buoyant and this one made it to safety after a minute of being tumbled about in the turbulence at the base of the dam.

Festival 2008
Well, we finally got put on the schedule, so here it is:
We will be performing on Saturday, June 7, from 1:00pm to 2:00pm at the Adult Involvement Stage behind the County Building. The Adult Involvement Stage is the large terrace which overlooks Monroe Avenue and DeVos Place. Click here for a map.
If you have not seen our shows before, they area lot of fun. Photos from last year can be seen here.
Hope to see you there!
