Tarantinofest in San Pedro
Flash back to Sunday afternoon – It is a very exciting day at our house Cindy got a leg of lamb and we are going to barbecue it, we going go see a movie at a real theater for the first time in over 5 years, and I am getting a big cooler full of veggies and coconut water delivered any minute from Healthy Belize. Paul heard me placing my order with Zac and said this phone shopping is a dangerous thing ha ha. I just love the fact that I can get my groceries to come to me instead of me having to go get them.
The Paradise theater across the bridge is having a Tarantino fest and showing a Quentin Tarantino double bill, Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction – both great films. [second link has a very funny video clip of list the swearing lines in pulp fiction – all 3:19 minutes of it]
For all you Tarantino fans here is a bit of Tarantino Trivia – what was Quentin’s middle name?
A. Lawrence B. Jerome or C. Richard
Look below pictures for answer.
B. Jerome is the correct answer for Quinten’s middle name.
No worries Emily, glad you told me as I use chrome for my secondary browser so may not have figures out there was a problem so quick without you. Fix may take a day or 2.
Thanks Laurie and sorry for hijacking this entry! 😉
Thanks for the feedback Emily. It is a chrome thing as my guy and I both checked our chrome browsers and can see what you are talking about. That is one reason why I think web work is so challenging, something looks normal so you think and then you check different browsers and find it is out of whack. Working on a fix.
Hi Laurie, I do see Belize video links and a nice little video window on the right side column of your site, and that looks great. The video I am seeing that is weird is in the upper left-hand corner of your site, when I first bring up your page in Chrome. This video overlays part of your content even when I scroll the page. It’s a YouTube video of a band playing. It goes away after awhile, but if I refresh the page, it comes back up again. We were just experimenting and found that if we clicked on some of your video links, like for Aquafit, we get the band videos even over in the right column, like it is linking to the wrong video on Youtube. Also, once I started playing #4, then clicked on #5 (both of which are not your Belize videos), they both played at the same time. Definitely some kind of techie issue, maybe just with Chrome.
Most of the Videos are Belize related and many are ones I have taken myself. I have had a Belize video category for a while now and finally got around to getting some front page. Thanks for letting me know about the tech issue, I will have my guy look into it.
Hi Laurie, I thought it might be a hack because it sits on top of your site and covers up your content when I scroll. Is there a way to move the box containing the video so it doesn’t cover part of your content? Also, I wasn’t sure how it related to your site…just seemed very strange to me!
I do Al but unfortunately my foot masseuse ran off with the cook and the maid so I am sol for now.
It is intentional Emily [and long time coming lol] Curious what makes you think it was a hack?
Laurie: Do you like foot massage?
Hey Laurie, is the YouTube video that has just started popping up in the left-hand corner of your site intentional? Or have you been hacked?
It tasted as good Ruthie thanks for your pro barbecue input.
Sounds like a good recipe Al except I would take a pass on the Shriaz, would be as appealing as drinking gasoline with my meal lol. Even when I was a wine drinker was not really for the taste.
Wow! The lamb looks so fabulous…if it tastes half as good as it looks you guys rocked!
