“Even though all signs point to it, I don’t think they’re trying to poison us” Wow, that’s some bad coffee they have brewing this morning. Yeach!

First Flowers
Yeap, spring is here. Just like over at OnFocus there are crocuses popping up next to (and through) the driveway. The waterfall was taken up at cascade falls on sunday. I couldn’t stand the thought of being in the house on such a nice day and practically bolted up there (except for the 30 minute
Playing with an HP S20 Film Scanner
A bit ago Cat5 managed to scam an HP S20 film scanner for me from his work. Mucho thanks. The software and scanner is older, but still 2400dpi and still seeming to work pretty well so far. So while this weekend was supposed to have been a scanning extravaganza, a combination of “other stuff” and

Mapping the Cat Brain
I need a poster of this as well. Seems scientists have finally mapped the feline brain and released the details. Included in the mapped image is the exact location of the barf gland and the area controlling infatuation with people who hate cats 🙂

Death of a Lens
So photography class was last night. I eagerly waited since last week to get my first roll of black and white film back to look at. I was really excited to see if some of the effects and images that I wanted actually turned out. So I get to class and pull out the package
More Insanity
In a follow up to bitching about doing support I have to go again. Long ago in my company now several times gone I used to joke with Silverstr and ScoobyD and the guys there about an email we got from the QA department. It was a word document with nothing but a screenshot of
