you done with the fake river yet? Just kidding.

The ones and zeros are not the problem its how the two programs add them all up. They are not even made by the same company. So much so that the program I use comes up with an error screen " hey we didn't make this are you sure you want ot trust it?"

We go through that with a manufacturing plant that started surveying their own plant long ago with plant coordinates. The front gate might be the starting point for their drawing but the rest of the world does it different. They have been in business for over 100 years and they still can't tell what elevation above mean sea level the plant is.

Oh yea, it came out great. If you look REAL close at the shadows of one of the bridges in the water it looks a little off, but I bet no one will ever notice except me.

cool! Now if only that would solve my problem.
The client is pissed we have to spend time re-cading structural steel to insert in our 3D model when its already done. Well we did a demo of the other vendor's model in front of the client, crashed the computer. Did it few times to prove the point till our CAD guy said hey look at that my desktop....again.

Went to Podiatrist wound car specialist today. He happens to be a guy that used to own a 944 Turbo and autocross at our events. He says if I had come to him back in October my foot would have been healed by Thanksgiving!!! Says he will have me heel and toeing in no time.

Glen, Brian Miller now owns his old 944 Turbo. He had a BMW m5 for a while, now he is playing with a Buick Grand National.

Isn't that always the way, "if you had only come and seen me first" I am sure I have even had mechanics say that to me, lol.

But hey! If he says he will have you line dancing in no time, hell yeh!! Gor for it, give him the money!!!

World has gone mad again, poor people just running and having a good time in Boston, if you can call running a marathon having a good time.

But what the hell is going on, when people want to just destroy the lives of other people they don't even know!

My heart goes out to anyone who has been touched by this tragedy, and its yet another lot of TV kids shouldn't be able to see.

I was sitting on the porch listening to the birds, it is amazing just how many different songs are going on at the same time.

Okay enough softy crap, where are my zombies?

exactly.

AND if Dianne Sawyer asks one more traumatized person one more gory horrific details, lets have it all question I am going to turn her off.

Well maybe its just a good time to put a nice,... something I prepared earlier... on.

The news is pi55ing me off, their handling this situation is just sensationalist journalism.
