Friday Afternoons…

What is it about Friday afternoons that make me so non-productive?
Is it the anticipation of the weekend?  Is it the lack of other employees still being in the office?  Or is it simply the feeling of accomplishment that one more week has been conquered?
I am not really sure…
I just know that it is again a [...]

Why I LOVE and HATE the month of August…

The calendar just turned to month number 8.  We have finished the 4th of July fireworks, the pastel colors of Easter, and even March Madness has gone bye-bye… Groundhog Day was a blast, but gone.  Cinco de Mayo was oh so fun, but no more…  And mid April, well, SUCKED as always but at least [...]

New gig for my wife…

Highlights… Texas State Fair 2007

I used it to edit [...]

Nice Christmas this year

Did you have a nice Christmas this year?
I did… As always.
I received some very cool gifts highlighted by a DVD video camera, and a new digital still camera.  2008 appears to shaping up as the year of the picture and motion pictures.  In fact, see the video below captured on Christmas Day 2007 with the [...]

My header image…

Did you notice I changed my header image?  It is from Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” painting which happens to be one of my favorites.
 I love the colors and the contrasts…  Very beautiful.  It reminds me of this time of year in a small town in Europe somewhere.  Very, very cool…

Christmas with the Heroes…

My wife and I had some fun with our Christmas cards this year.
We staged a scene with some of our superhero action figures, a globe, some holly and a digital camera.  Then you add some fun effects from Photoshop and you got yourself a Christmas card….
 See below and let me know what you think…

Monday mornings…

What is it about Mondays that just totally suck?
Is it having to get up early, get ready for work, and officially get back in the grind?  Or is it the having to get back into social mode and interaction mode with everyone at work?  Or maybe it is just society’s conditioning of us that Mondays [...]

Who is your favorite Rankin/Bass character?

 
The holiday season is always great for so many reasons…  Decorations, family, great food, gift giving and receiving, and your annual dose of Rankin/Bass characters.
For those of you who are not aware, Rankin and Bass were the directors/producers of the old Christmas classics from our childhoods… “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” “Rudolf the Red [...]
