Hello dear reader. It has been a while since I had more than 140 characters’ worth of time to write recently. This statement is not a complaint it is a fact. The reason for this situation is that I have been working on my photo processing skills of photos I have taken.
As I was returning from a trip, I was surprised to find that my checked luggage weighed in at 58.2 pounds. When I was unpacking, I weighed everything as I removed it. To easily tally heavier things that was measured in pounds and things in ounces, I converted everything to ounces for the calculations. It [more]
At times I have trouble keeping track of what is where in terms of data. A couple of friends recommended Dropbox to me, so I finally checked it out and am amazed at how fast and powerful it is so far. By using the links to Dropbox with a referral code (the ones on this [more]

I had to stop and get a bottle of water from this gas station/convenience store. I make no other comment.
Yup, traveling again. It was odd today, for the first time I can remember I was out of Blackberry coverage. It was funny to watch just how out of sorts people got by not having Blackberry access. I kind of figured that we were out in the fringes when the Blackberry said GPRS instead of [more]
