Default Harry, how was your trip to Australia?

Oh come on - that wasn't nice.

This is the era of hope and change. Like the bishop said yesterday -
"Yellow is mellow".

Er...

Never mind.
I know, you are correct. Harry hasn't been away from his computer
long enough to go anywhere. Sorry.


Hey - look at it this way - at least he was in one place - in a
quantum world, he could be anywhere and everywhere at the same time.

Just think, as soon as he figures out how to use Photoshop, we'll be
seeing a picture of him meeting Obama.

Only makes sense - as soon as I figure out how to do it, I'm going to
have a picture of me meeting Obama. :)

Aarrgh. I'd love to meet Obama. Just a handshake would be enough for me.

Not much chance of me learning photoshop. I don't have it on any of my
computers, and I have no interest in getting it or learning it. If I
wanted to produce abstract art, I'd get some brushes, canvas, and
paints. Just about any photo software package will attend to the bit of
post processing of photos I do. I use Aperture when I need to. Those
sneaky folks at the Apple store run free or almost free classes for
their applications, and darned if they didn't hook me with that and the
free tech support when I need it from English-speaking locals.

In fact, last time I was at the store, I actually had an "appointment"
for a consult, the schedule was running late, so I walked across the
mall corridor for a coffee and when I came back it was my turn. No
endless meandering through automated telephone systems.






Here's a tip that might save you a trip to the mall for a consult. When
the screen won't light up, check the power cord.
