Monday Video - Ever Wanted to Sky Dive?

This is about as close to sky diving that I want to get. It's the Navy Seal team, called the Leap Frogs, dropping into the San Diego Padres stadium on opening day. I think it's pretty cool.

Monday Video - Meet Chris P. Bacon

Meet Chris P. Bacon (get it?). Chris was born without the use of his hind limbs and was set to be put down before vet Len Lucero stepped in and built him a specially-designed wheelchair.

The lovable one-year-old now spends most of his time bringing smiles to faces at a hospital for disabled children in Brighton, Massachusetts, but also gets out quite often making friends wherever he goes.

Take a look back at his progress throughout the last year, from a 1/2 pound baby to a 65 pound grape eating machine.

Monday Video - Humpback Whales

Betty and I have been blessed to visit Hawaii twice during whale season. Humpback whales go to Hawaii from Alaska to have their babies during December and January. They nurture them until the calves are ready for the long trip to Alaska beginning in March.

We've seen a lot of whales, but never from the perspective this family did with their camera mounted on a quadcopter.

Enjoy.

When I was in high school and college, playing pool was very popular. If you were lucky, you had a friend who had a pool table as my family could never afford one.

Here's a guy who has taken trick shots to a new level. Enjoy.
