www.mychoice.ca is a website setup for smokers that feel the they are secondclass citizens. believing that it is their right to smoke where they feel like it.

I don't smoke. never thought I needed to start when I saw so many people trying to quit.

so I guess it is kinda like a catch22, prevent smoking in restaurants, smokers cry.
smoking in restaurants everyone else crys.

new file formats

apprently there isn't enough picture formats out there,

adobe has created another

but I can see why the info is useful,
but I think we are going to running out of 3 letter extenstions. any day soon.
heck even I have created a file format of MIR is our work 3d file format.

for Michelle

Payton had been pretty fussy for a couple of weeks expeicaly this week.

now it makes me wonder about the term colic, I am begining to think it is a term made up to pacify parents from worring that something is wrong...

crying like that can't be normal.

anyhow I just wanted to ask for anyone to add michelle to thier prayers.
she is having a tough time with the crying/fussing.

thanks

my 3d head

we built at work a 3d scannner, well needless to say the bosses are out and we scanned my head.



who knew work could be so much fun.

camera adds 10 pounds?

well I have been working on a 3-d scannner for a while now, and it is looking good

except that every thing is looking a bit skinny. not linearly either.

I guess I best get back to work and doing my Job of "making magic happen".
(a small joke that the we programmers are using now, since people whom do not understand anything about programming, that want something to do something else
that either requires alot of work or time, or isn't mentaly posible. basicly require magic to happen)(funny enough things tend to work in the end anyways)

dire?

This morning I woke up with a really bad toothache.
I put up with it for about an hour or 2. but it hurt alot.
so I tried some IB proven at michelles discretion.(more than max I might add to).
it help lots too. also I avoid taking pills for times like these so when I need them they are more effective.

I have a dentist appointment made for thrusday to be the earliest. unless I it is dire. which leads to the thought what is dire or an emergency, it's just really painful. and I have a high pain tolerance. some people whine for hours that their stubbed toe hurts. I can cut my self accidentally and not know how I did it when I see a trail of blood leading to me.

so with that in mind, being that my tooth hurts alot now, I would image people with less pain tolerance would have ran to the dentist or the ER long ago.

so being that was this morning and now it is 1AM I am now using the xtra-strength
tooth Gel stuff saveon had, and it's only working some what and the pills only help somewhat, I might find what i will call dire soon enough.

another thought

every one wants to feel Joy at its fullest, and when it comes to pain what most people think is "where is the tylonal?", now can you truely
feel complete Joy with out knowing it's opposite.

just a day

I have only been gone about 36hrs,

I left for New Haven Conn. at about 6:00pm,
and was back after a couple of airline delays
around 6am the morning after.

and when I held Payton that morning I had noticed that she has grown.

I had only been gone a little over a day!! and I could tell she had grown some.

like a humming bird

I have been having trouble, thinking about what to blog about.

my mind flutters back and fourth like a humming bird, not sure how it flys
but in constant need of nectar(or stimulation)

how this applies to bloggin is that I can never think of what to type.
and when I do, by the time I site down It's already flown off, never to be seen again.

when I have mental stimulation I head flutters, kinda like having a 20oz slurpie.
the sugar buzz lasts a while and keeps me up at night, but I am after more.

thats why i don't read fiction very much, it doesn't leave me with much to chew on.

techie fun

I have been playing around programming webcams for the past couple of weeks
makeing a 3 d scannner.
after some realy hard geometery and and bright lasers, I can scan objects in 3d.

so anyhow I was playing around with edge detection algorythims when applyed to a live cam, it produces some sweet effects
