I have been fighting with a customer order. We flew a city that shall remain nameless that is not in Oklahoma. The city planners did not build the streets quite on the north south line. They decided it was too expensive to dig up the city and rotate a few degrees so I have to make the image rotated a few degrees to make the roads run straight. Why it matters to them is a mystery to us. I got all that done and now they notice the river that runs through the city is mostly sand bars and not much water. When we did the same project for them 3 years ago the river was full. The drought has changed that. Now I "get" to Photoshop the full river from the old image onto the new images. Golly that is fun!

I suppose you expect the food you are served in a restaurant to look just like the picture on the menu.

Soooo, If you see a black cat cross your path it means bad luck. What if you see a white cat and it doesn't cross your path?

It's 90 degrees here. We might have thunderstorms here or there. Should be a nice walk home tonight.

Are you sure you're doing the right thing, saving a Volvo from the crusher?

Today was a record cold high for the day. Tomorrow morning will break the record for the lowest temp ever for the month. They are forecasting 27!

We are really hopeing it will zap the Bradford trees and kill the pear crop. They are usless unless you are a bird.

Dang global warming!

I am ready for SPRING!
