Double post lol.
Meh, I can't stand to go on that website anymore, so there shouldn't be much need to go into code.
News: Put a Saab 96 grille on my cruiser bicycle's basket. Bought a Beetle exhaust so I can hack it up and finally put the stinger on my car. Drew a Datsun 120Y and '60 Buick vert for illustration examples. Probably one more tomorrow before Wed's show. I'm thinking of charging more, because honestly, I'm pretty damn skilled and I think I should get a little more for that. Will scan dems tomorrow.

Off topic, Hokay then.
So I'm working on an LED project, bought some special goodies from superbrightleds.com and a buncha other places, the project has been gestating for at least four years now, maybe five, it's very close to completion.
Anywayz, I'ma soldering these little beauties to the circuit board, I'm worrying about heat damage from soldering even though I'm taking precaushionz.
So I decide to test the LEDS as I go, that's kind of one of my major rules, handy dandy Fluke 78 to the rescue, the same meter I set duty cycle with, it's also got a diode test function where a good diode shows a voltage drop when he leads are connected one direction, shows an open circuit the other way.
Lolo and be Holden, as the voltage drop displays, the leetle Light Emitting Diodes glow like fireflies.
I just though that was so cool I had to share, who knows, the info may be handy next time you're putting LEDs in your A1 instrument cluster.
That is all. For now. Go find something and/or someone interesting to read and/or do.

So the dating site I'm on sent a new set of 3 matches, and guess who's there. A classmate from high school! She's into art too, and was then, but I guess we never got talking. Just so weird that after the hell of HS, something brings me back, for a second chance. I'll see if anything comes of it.
God, I was an unpleasant person in high school, at least compared to now.

I'm pretty sure I was born in the wrong decade. I've spent about 3 hours listening to the Shangri-La's mix on YouTube. I love every minute of it. "My Boyfriend's Back" and "Then He Kissed Me" are two of my faves. They're such quality songs- no bullshit, no profanity. Sing about love, and do it unabashedly. Perfect. This also reminds me how much I want a girlfriend, especially if she wears retro clothes. It may sound shallow, but I really dig that. Those 60's and 70's outfits are so nice. Specifically, the ones here...
Yes, I realize it's a 2000's remake. Maybe it's their sensual dancing that's getting me, but there's something really special about what they're wearing. Oh, and the chick on the right's hair is really sweet! I love it.
Then again, I'm sure there is a reason this era needs me. If I were supposed to be born in 1947, why would I be born in '89? I've got something important to do here. I'm very passionate about things, and when I'm passionate I get things done; I just wonder what will come of it. Something great? I hope. But what I would much more love is to have a loving wife.
I've been a big Beach Boys fan for a long time; their melodies are just magical.

Man, that's so cool! I wish they'd come down on the price of the one they have here locally. $3,000 is just beyond my limit. especially since it has so many dings and is in need of some rust repair.
Since you unnecessarily rerouted all of the photo tools above the image, it has been a major pain in the butt to share my photos on forums. There was absolutely nothing wrong with having a dedicated button for each task. In fact, any designer will tell you that it's better to be able to click straight onto the button than be forced to navigate any menu. It's simple; if you have the space, use it. The new interface reminds me of a cell phone menu- cumbersome and redundant.
Do not make a one-click task take two clicks. It's backward.
If you're about to tell me how easy it is to do a certain task, stop. A good design would not need explanation. The old Flickr photo pages were WYSIWIG. This is unacceptable. Make Flickr usable again, or forget about my pro renewal.

Shitty ass night.
Well, the first part was pretty nice. Went on a bike ride in the dark, when my headlight decided to flickr out most of the 10 mile trip. The last half of the bike ride I was planning out the next date with this chick I saw on Sat. (We both had a really good time)
Got back home, texted her, and we became Facebook friends and whatnot. I see that she's "in a relationship" with a girl. I make a smart ass comment about the whole BFF relationship thing, and she tells me that no, that's a boy's name and she thought Saturday was just hanging out. Dog Gammit. This is so lame. All summer, and all I get is a "date" with a chick who's already got a bf. How hard can it be to meet a decent, single female? Not exactly looking for statistics for it, but it would sure be nice to "have" someone. How about instead of this , I am this  ?

Just a wee word of advice.... about the time you stop looking for her, she's gonna blow right into your life, and blow you away. Patience, darlin'.... good things come to those who wait.
