Riding on thin ice

I was reminded twice today how tenuous my presence here is. On the ride back from work, the entire two blocks of it, I was nearly collected by two cars. The first was some yahoo racing to turn right. I didn’t have a green pedestrian crossing light, but I was going with the traffic. Luckily,… Read more

My camera, Our House

So, I finally bought a digital camera. A Casio Z750. 7.2 megapixels, typical telescoping 3x lens, nice compact form factor. It’s quite impressive. It hasn’t seen daylight yet, so I can’t do some true quality tests with it, but the indoor flashed portraits have come out disturbingly well. It ended up costing about $470US, including… Read more

It’s not my fault I’m lazy!

This article is scary. It sounds a lot like something that may apply to myself… yeah, it’s the classic paranoid reaction, but it does fit. I feel tired, depressed and lazy all the time. Oh wait, that’s because I am. D’oh. ;) Although seriously, it’s an interesting discovery. I’ll be hanging out for further news… Read more
