Buenas Dias Coffee Hosers. Gary is off the disabled list, not 100% but well enough to play. Yesterday, he pretty much slept all day. He tried to take a nap but slept right through it. Gary took some time off from sleeping for some wor wonton soup ... then went right back for more of that sleep. While he got more than his fair share of sleep yesterday ... he's sorta missing it now.

 

[jcdeboever]

I wish I could sleep.

 

[terri]

Sleep hasn't been a problem for me since I got out of healthcare management. hmm...any correlation between the two, I wonder?

Morning, hosers! Glad you dodged a full-on illness, Gary!

Nope

Nope

LOL. To me the commercial, seemed to be insinuating (intentional or not) that this phone would make anyone a pro.

Yup, and no doubt there will be people who will believe it. And of course, there will eventually be a new photo exhibit somewhere of photos taken "exclusively with an iPhone 7" and that will be the 'proof' of how good the camera is.

Disregarding the artistic talent of the person using the photographic equipment is pretty much par for the course at this point

Not just limited to cell phones. I have an acquaintance that has conservatively $5k in camera and lenses. He knows how to turn it on, snap the shutter and change lenses, but other than that it stays on full auto. Has no clue about how anything works, and doesn't want to know, but can't understand why his images look mediocre when he's spent all that money.

Wow! I am giving a demo, tomorrow, on our "Next Steps in GIS" so I'm looking for data to place on the map. I'm in a geology mood, but our's is pretty boring eastern coastal plain. I did find US Coal Fields, and was surprised to see two near Richmond, VA but even more surprised to see an anthracite (AKA "hard coal") around Providence and Portsmith, Rhode Island! It's labeled "Anthracite/Other Uses" which I'm guessing is not fuel grade, so I wouldn't expect the UMWA setting up shop anytime soon.

Hey, hosers.

Sad day over here. Buzz's kitty died. She was about 16, and was having some issues but they were manageable. Then she just took a turn within the past week. She went quietly in her sleep this afternoon.

Good bye, sweet Piglet. You were a good and fine girl.

 

[Gary A.]

Sad. Piglet looks very sweet.

Good bye, sweet Piglet.

So sorry for your loss.
