Create Something

Let's see if I can use this month to experiment with hardware and software and create a few things. Adobe released the latest versions of their Creative Suite software. There are new, simple pieces of software to help children (like me) understand animation. And the app store for the iPod touch is fantastic. I need to spend time with all of the above and more. Oh, yea, i need to make some comix, too.

And, the latest release of Ubuntu (a version of Linux) is available. I will try it on my old laptop.

Getting Ready for Winter -- a Science Project Last year an interesting accident of nature occurred in Echo's dog dish as it was left outside during early Winter. I was puzzled by it for some time, and eventually researched it on the Internet. [ more ]	Kayak I bought my kayak. Since it is unseasonably warm, maybe I will put it in the water this week?? I look forward to taking it camping and to South Carolina. [ more ]
Halloween at Cadillac Jack's I promised to post some halloween pictures of the staff at Cadillac Jack's. After considerable procrastination, here they are. I hope to make a comic or two using these and other pictures from that evening. [ more ]	Mom and Shelby Updates Mom is doing fine. I have some pictures of us going to lunch and hanging out, and pictures of mom feeding Tangi, her cat. . Our cat, Shelby, on the other hand, has not had it so lucky -- she was spayed and had her front claws removed. [ mom update ] and [ Shelby update ]
Thanksgiving Mom and I made the turkey and all the fixing on the day before Thanksgiving. On Thursday, we had a relaxing feast at noon, and then we went to Gail's parents' house for socializing and another feast. [ with mom ] and [ with Downies ]	Dayton Art Institute Gail and I spent a Saturday afternoon at the local art museum, followed by a nice lunch together. (We left mom at home.) [ more ]
