Merry christmas, Stijners! :)

Merry Christmas to you and your boys, tweeze. SmileWavy

Merry Christmas Tweeze and the rest.

We have a easy 1/2 day. If you consider 11:00 AM half the day. Mostly I came in to get the scanner started on another job and get some free coffee. It will take the scanner 3.5 days to scan it all. It will make a few hundred gigs of files. I will VNC and check on it occasionally for the next few days so I will be working on Christmas! ;)

Of course from my phone a few taps and I can see the scan progress and be done in 20 seconds max. It is a tough job but someone has to do it.

You're just a modern day Bob Cratchit!

That's me. :D

Now I have to decide if I am bored enough to go ahead and print up some 16x20s for a client. He ordered the prints be said he would not be in until next year. I may just get them ready to print and want until after the 1st to hit the print button. The prints have no chance of getting bent or scratched if I have not yet made them. ;)

Went out to dinner with some friends last night. It was an Italian place that also did glass blowing. You could watch em making stuff while you ate a scrumptious italian dinner.

The guy explained you just blow a little air in and put your thumb over the end of the pipe, the air heats up and expands making a bubble in the glass blob on the other end of the pole. Then he showed us. When the bubble appeared in my best redneck voice I exclaimed, "That blowed up real good!" He about lost it.

Evidently they sell a lot of those psychedelic colored vases and bowls with the ruffledy edges.

It was getting down to the wire, but I got my artsy fartsy in for the year.

Hey Richard, what's fer lunch? Jason's ?

Porsche-poor 12-24-2013 06:29 AM

Supposed to work all day. Leaving at noon to help wife with Xmas dinner prep. Just a tad more important that someone's bottom line.

Either Jason's or Zarate's is good for me.

GH85Carrera 12-24-2013 07:07 AM

Jason's. We ate at Zarate's just the other night and I still have leftovers in the fridge.

This is a picture my wife shot yesterday in our backyard. It is the Nandina plant all covered in ice, then yesterday we had frozen fog so we had hoar-frost on the ice.

Here is a close up.

I have the full resolution sharp pics I will make a print of. I think it is cool.

GH85Carrera 12-24-2013 08:35 AM

The print came out great. I took it a couple of blocks away to a company to mount it and all the folks that work back there loved it as well.

RKDinOKC 12-24-2013 09:01 AM

Looks like some kind of sweet candy.

GH85Carrera 12-24-2013 09:04 AM

Nope, just some very cold leafs. ;)

Porsche-poor 12-24-2013 09:36 AM

Great picture. No white Christmas here. Out of here at noon, must go home and prep for the family to show up.

Looks like impressionist art. Monet? ;)

Glen brings a touch of class to the place.

Jim Richards 12-24-2013 09:53 AM
