    Splash-4 at the Taj Mahal

    This one is a little sappy. It is a video tribute to the day Ruth and I spent at the Taj Mahal.

    Below is the YouTube version of the video. It is of low quality and low resolution. But it is available on everyone's machine.



    This link is to a higher quality version that is high resolution but requires the installation of a windows plug-in to view. It is not available for the MAC, sorry.

    Both of these videos were made in a 16x9 format, so if they look a little 'stretched' they are supposed to be. This is still a small selection of the photos we took at the Taj and for the most part do not cover any of the out buildings that we scrambled through. Those pictures are available to be viewed for a small fee. More photos and my thoughts on the visit to the Taj can be found in my blog at [url}http://mckennon-blog.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!46AB5BBDFA1479C9!780.entry[/url]

    Lastly, please ignore the fact I am wearing P**nts... I did not bring any kilts with me and those that I have at home are not going to fit any more. I have dropped close to 50 pounds here in India and about 4 inches off of my waist. I expect a quick visit to Matt will fix this issue in Feb when I get home.

    Lastly, I am quickly approaching a new years eve bash here locally, so "Happy New Year" to all of you!

    thanks, Mike. But what on earth are you doing in India, anyway?

    Hi Jim! It is a long, sordid, story that the mods might have to delete. I will tell you more when I see you in Feburary. It basically has to do with starting a new company here to do IT work.
