I picked up my preorder copy of Windows 7, installed it and was a happy man ... not. Seriously no ! ... I've had to reinstall windows around eight times and spent countless hours dealing with the crashes, bugs and drivers. No going back to Microsoft !
What's the worst vacation you've ever taken?
A trip to Belgium a few years ago, it must of been the shortest plane ride I've ever been on, though that was the good thing. The weather was dull and grey, the beaches rocky and windy. In truth the place we went to .... there was nothing to do !
All across Japan"
"Someone who is strong
But still a little shy"
Who could ever forget these .... errr memorable lyrics, from the catchy tune butterfly, forever assocaited with the first Dance Dance Revolution, the game that either made you look super cool or a complete idiot. Of course I never dared play it in the arcade, since every single person who played it there was an expert. When I did manage to play it at home on my playstation I was terrible at it ( >_< ) I can't believe that was over ten years ago !
I'm trying to take more pictures (at least 100) in an effort to improve my photography skills before getting a DSLR...
Pictures 1-3:
No fanfare about Vox's 3rd birthday unlike previous years, well the way things have gone that was to be expected. No need to repeat my rants about the lack of development or bug fixes, what has happened in a year ... Vox hunt has gone, we now have sponsored Questions and a few themes, one of my posts made the technology is [good] page, ... not much else.
I'm still here and still blogging after three years, some of my neighbours have gone but a great core of cool voxers in my neighbourhood who blog regularly, it's the community which makes this place great. There is cool stuff out on vox but now much harder to find, it's hidden among mountains of splogs. Vox is still my platform of choice, I have a great neighbourhood and I hope it keeps on running !
I've been thinking about getting a DSLR for quite some time, they are expensive and in truth I don't know much about photography.Professional photographer Chase Jarvis, has some great words of wisdom ! The best camera is the one that's with you, and he's made a book to prove his point.
So you don't need an expensive DSLR to made great photos. Is that really true, well my camera has a pretty crappy phone with it, so before spending any money on a piece of complicated camera I wouldn't know how to use properly, I going to set myself a target of 100 great pictures with my camera phone before I am allowed to buy anything.
I thought I have nothing pink in my wardrobe, orange yes, red yes, yellow yes, brown yes, green yes, ... pink no... !
If you were going to write a book, what would you write about?
errr... another recycled qotd answering this question second time around ... same answer .."how not to be me !"
Last week at work a mechanical engineer came into the lab and asked "Do we have a flux capacitor ? ",
I though he was joking but he was searching through the various trays for it. So then we were all laughing asking him whether he was attempting to build a time machine.
