My boss just purchased a K100D Super, the same Pentax DSLR model that I have. We have been chatting about lenses and RAW editors. Here is a list of my lenses: SMC Pentax-DA 1:3.5-5.6 18-55mm AL (autofocus, kit lens) Takumar 1:2.5 135mm Asahi Optical serial #5571462 Super-Takumar...
I’ve had this blog since spring 2004 and not only is the blog five years old but I’ve also just passed 800 posts. I wasn’t sure if I’d keep up with the blog or not (and granted there have been several months at a stretch where I...

Over the weekend I tried a new theme that had a section that looked like torn paper with pictures behind it. Unfortunately, the theme didn’t work in Internet Explorer. The pictures appeared on top of the torn paper images instead of behind. (Maybe it’s a layering issue...

I’ve had my N900 since the end of November. On January 19, Engadget published a thorough review of the N900. The Engadget article points out some of the flaws with the N900: it’s not a polished product. The user interface isn’t as slick as the iPhone or...
I joined Weight Watchers on the first Thursday of January. Since then, I’ve drastically changed how I eat, and have managed to lose about 6.5 pounds (yay!). I’ve been browsing recipes and deciding what to cook. Normally, I’m not much of a chef. I can cook, but...

This is just hysterically funny considering that Apple just announced the iPad this week. (What was Apple expecting by releasing a product that is so closely named to feminine hygiene product?) Here is the Mad TV “commercial” about the Apple iPad with all kinds of innuendo. As...
I got a thank-you on an Open Office forum for my article on using page styles to create unique headers and footers in Open Office Writer. One of my friends asked me why I bother writing documentation that no one will read. I told him I write...
It was gorgeous today. No clouds in the sky. Amazing warm weather (60F) and a light breeze. I weighed in at Weight Watchers today and then wanted to skip out of work. Instead, I went back, finished up some projects, and got out of work early. I...
In 2006, a friend of mine sent me a link to a YouTube video of the international WEG2006 Freestyle Dressage Final at Aachen. A big grey mare gave a performance that was truly inspired and had the audience clapping and rooting for her. (HIGHLY unusual — dressage...
