APATHETHIC PEOPLE are the pathetic ones..


it’s not the distance that separates people from each other, it’s the wall they build among themselves..


only miserable people make other lives miserable..


its the simple things that surround us, we oftentimes take for granted, are the most important things in our lives...

things like friendship and love... after all its what we do to other that will shaped their thoughts of who we are in there lives

Why is it that i have being here for a couple of weeks but still no sign of getting to know someone that we may spend the rest of our life together?

For the longest while i had a James patterson book and had no interest in reading it until about eight days ago, now i have read about six of his books and reading one at the moment and have the intention of reading alot more more. Have anyone read his books and what do you think?

Some people seem to be scared of the unknowing and mystery's that night holds in store for us all.

Thing like that noise on the staircase at night the sound you dripping coming for know where ghostly cry and feelings of unease as you walk in to a dark room.

Terrors that lay in wait for us all those dark shadows that seam to be all around us when we turn out the lights and the moon lite is the only light that came really be seen.

Creepy is it not... the thought that start to run though our minds or nightmare starting to come to life before our eyes could it really be happen is a demon spider thing going to hop out of the darkest part of our room and eat us alive and live blood dripping down the walls slowly for our friends to find and our body lieing in bit's on the floor in a pool of blood.

I doubt it...in our minds yes in real life na

But is it not funny how our mind work some times from just a thought or from some things we may have seen or heard that day...the real truth is that the most scariest place in the world in not the hotel bates or a graveyard where the dead come a live to freest on the flesh of the living but our on inner minds.

Feel free to share your nightmares and darkest wickets thought.

Well I think I'm going to do this more often. For every conversation I have here, 1 turns out funny.

He said "Hi"
I said "Hi back"
Then he asked... "Whats your cup size?"
Very sweet. Really whats in your head?
"Well depends on how much coffee I want to drink."

Sorry guys buts thats just too personal.

Two years ago I bought a Maxtor 250 gb external hard drive. I have since used it to store my MANY photos. I have spent countless hours categorizing about 25,000 pictures into about 80 different folders based on photo type or client and each folder has subfolders based on cropping and then turning them into samples.

Last night the unthinkable evil took place. It malfunctioned.
While I was sleeping, apparently hard drive gremlins snuck into my office and did something to my external hard drive.
Both of my computers (laptop & desktop) indicate that the external hard drive needs formatting. Shit ! If I reformat my drive, all that data will be lost forever. Thus, I just read several articles on data recovery and concluded, that it just isn't worth the $1,500 or so to partially get it back in some altered form. I've reached this conclusion based on several additional bits of crucial information.

The first salient point, is that I still have all the pictures on (memory) compactflash (CF) cards. They are the memory cards my Rebel XT (camera) uses. I do not re-use my CF cards. I typically use 4gb, 8gb or 16gb cards and when they go on sale, I buy lots. I have 4 extras awaiting future use and a one half used one in the camera now. My ex-gf used to complain that I was wasting money and that once I download the pictures I should erase the CF card and re-use it. That's what most people do. But, I protested, even when the cards were much more expensive. I never fully trusted the hard drive, nor CD Roms, which I used exclusively to back up my photos back then. More recently, I bought the external hard drive as an easier and more capable solution to the back-up problem. I got it at Office Depot for about $100 over two years ago and since I only turn it on when I use it, I figured its stability would outlive my internal hard drive. Wrong ! The internal in my desktop is still puttering along. I guess that's because it only moved once, when I moved last summer. The external has moved many times a week. Indeed, its even been on vacation with me.

The second applicable aspect, is that I've been eyeing a new external hard drive. Prices of those have come down, or should I say, that capability has increased. This past week I saw a TB (terabyte = 1,000 gb) one at Office Depot on sale for about $100 and 1.5 TB for about $135. So, I have decided to get 2 of the 1.5 TB ones. I will use one as a primary back-up and the other as a back-up to that one. Thus, if the hard drive gremlins get to one of them, I will have the other and then copy that onto a new one and lose little time (insert evil laugh here). At that time, only Bill Gates knows how large in capacity they will be.

The third point is, that I just backed up all my best photos (cropped) and the corresponding samples (my info "plastered all over them") onto my laptop. I do that once a week to add the new ones. Thus, in conclusion it will take a lot of time to get all those photos sorted back into the 60 or so categories and subcategories, but I will be even better off after I am done and even better prepared for hard drive disaster. "Use stumbling blocks as stepping stones" has always been one of my mottoes, as is "be prepared". The latter concept was ingrained into me way back during my Cub Scout years and I've always carried several rubbers in my wallet since and often been very thankful I have.

Regardless, I wrote this as a warning to you all - be prepared !! As the computer articles that I read this morning all pointed out, it's not a matter of IF you'll have hard drive failure, but a matter of WHEN. May it R.I.P.

Apparently I don't. Today God has seen fit to grant me an education in medicine. At work I completely hacked off the tip of my thumb! No stitches or anything required, it just sucks! That is all for todays rant.

Though the web site cannot help me to find my Mr. Right in my location, it helps me to enjoy reading blog when I cannot sleep.

It's really happy to read blog here, to write and to get back comment. To share and to know I'm not alone to face my loneliness. At least a place to let me fill in my time when I cannot sleep...
