Get my Friday on

So much to do, so little desire to do it. It's a story as old as I am. I can procrastinate like no other. Need to do something about that.
Reading the Graphic Novel for V for Vendetta, different from the film, liking it.
If you have never read the Watchmen, you really should. It's the war and peace of graphic novels.

As an aside I am in a new office at work, the new one is way better than my old one in the plague ward. It's nice being in a room where you can shout out something like "Are you a God?" and you get responses from the desks around you like :
"Ray, when someone asks if you're a God, you say "Yes""
and
"As a duly designated representative of the City County State of New York I order you to cease any and all supernatural activity and return forthwith to your place of origin or to the nearest convenient parallel dimension."

It makes someone like me feel like they are in the right spot. Before you ask, yes that 2nd one was done word for word.

Anyway, back to work, that thing I was procrastinating. Then beer.

Portfolio

I have put my photographic portfolio online. This is a collection of the photos I have shot over the last few years. I recommend the slideshow option with captions off, it takes about 6 minutes to watch the whole thing. It is broken into sections of Architecture, Cars, Animals, People, Landscapes, and Flowers.

The Dead Speak!

Today a great man of science died. James Van Allen was one of the found fathers of planetary science. The Radiation belts that circle our planet bare his name. In an impressive move, Walter Sullivan, science editor for the New York Times has come back from the dead to write the story on Van Allen. You see It's common for newspapers to put stories together for the deaths of famous people ahead of time. That way when they die they have the whole thing ready, just fill the date, the how, and print. In this case Walter Sullivan wrote the story about the death of Van Allen before his own death in 1996. Creepy. Van Allen was 91 years old.
