Can you recall the last time you saw gas for $1.28 a gallon? I remember back in 2004 when gas was $1.99 a gallon. Apparently, this gas station hasn’t been open for several years now. Only time will tell when it reopens as another business, or slowly decays and falls to the ground after years of neglect.

A long time ago, I wrote that I embraced technology but missed some of the old things from the past. Recently it occurred to me that what I miss the most is reading hand-written letters from my friends and family. In today’s age of instant communications, it’s fair to say that traditional letter writing has become a bit of an ever-fading form of art.

Posted under Everything ElseToday I saw something gigantic out in a field. I couldn’t be sure what it was. And of course, no one was around to tell me. I decided to take a picture of it using my telephoto zoom lens, and all of a sudden there it was in my view finder, but I still couldn’t tell. It’s strange that when you zoom in close on something that big, you can’t see anything at all.
What is this thing? Please reply with your theories as comments (below).

Posted under Web DesignAwhile back, I wrote a post and at the end, asked readers to contribute their thoughts, ideas, and whatnot on what topics I should write about next. Unfortunately, nobody has done so. A writer asking for ideas and topics is not the most original idea ever, but I’d like to believe that I’m the first one to put it into a blog. As luck would have it, Talea has done just that. In all fairness, because I’m discussing her blog post (and possible copycatness), I’m obligated to now shamelessly plug her blog.
She did, however, have a really good idea, which I will now steal from her as a form of revenge. That idea was to post a cute photo of yourself in the same post where you are asking for ideas. So, here goes.
[There was something absolutely brilliant written here that was lost forever due to a denial of service attack!]
Posted under PhotographyBack in the early to mid 90’s, my best friend and I would stay up all night trying to come up with new and creative ways to write our own computer software and games. I was the creative one, who came up with all the ideas, and my best friend at the time was the technical one that excelled at writing computer code. Read the rest of this entry »

Who would have guessed that it would take 4 days just to spring my dad from the hospital in Florida and bring him back to New York? I never expected to be stuck in such a dilemma and my mom really owes me big time for this one! But hey, what do I care? Everything worked out just fine.
