USAF Thunderbirds in 1920 x 1200 Widescreen Wallpaper
Update: Sorry friends, but Blogger won't let me upload a 1920 x 1200 resolution image. Blogger converts automatically to 1600 x 1200 and I haven't found a way around this yet. I am considering moving the blog to overcome some basic limitations.Happy 2009. Today's USAF Thunderbird widescreen wallpaper is in 1920 x 1200 resolution by request.
I have put up a poll and I need your input. Do you want me to move to 1920 x 1200 resolution for the wallpapers here or keep them at 1680 x 1050?
Let me know your thoughts.

Trip to New York City
Hey all,
Hope you had a great Christmas and New Years. I celebrated the New Year with a trip to New York City. I thought you might like to see a few pictures from the trip. We stayed at the Crowne Plaza in Times Square and had a blast. The temperatures were consistently in the low teens and the windchill was near 0 degrees F.
We rang in the New Year in Times Square with thousands of other people. What a crazy time but it was amazing.
In picture #1 you're seeing Central Park in Manhattan from our vantage point 70 stories up on Rockefeller Center. In picture #2 you're seeing Times Square. In picture #3 you're seeing me and my wife in Rockefeller Center.
Lots of great times and great food. Here's to a great 2009!

If you've ever seen a Harrier perform at an airshow, you know it is a thriller. There's just something about raw thrust and vertical takeoffs (not to mention hovering).Enjoy!
