I had to merge two computer’s iphoto libraries tonight. This process basically sucks because iphoto has no real way to deal with duplicate images.
A quick search turned up: Duplicate Annihilator This program rocks and is worth ten times the amount it costs at $7.95.
I got angie a new razr phone and as she was reading the manual tonight. We came across this and it just about fell out of my chair…
(/)Microwave: Don’t try to dry your phone in a microwave oven.
You know some idiot tried this once and I am sure tried to do it and blew up their microwave and tried to sue the phone company. Now if this person actually died while doing it, they might deserve a Darwin award!
As some of you know we just got back from the National Garden Railway Conference in Las Vegas. I can’t believe how hot it was! On Friday it topped 112 degrees! Each day we started out at 7:30 on the bus and toured between five and six layouts each day. We arrived back at the hotel and attended several clinics and seminars.
I found the following topics of interest:
How to use drip irrigation.
Installing electrical in your garden railway.
Walt Disney’s Railroad Story
There was also a vendor show. I have about four hundred photos of all the railroads we visited. Most of them are for me to get ideas on what to do with my own railroad. I have uploaded only 6 of them as they are 2.5 megs each. (sorry I am not dial-up friendly).
I ended up buying a new Disney passenger car, some more rail clamp, two artificial sounds boxes and a pinner gun. I now have to find myself a compressor. But once I do, I will be hammering (no pun intended) out lots of trellises in no time.
The coolest part of the entire conference was the talk by Michael Broggie. He talked about the history of Walt Disney and his railroad. How his fascination with small scale trains turned into a very large dream that turned into Disneyland and Walt Disney World.
OK, while trying to find out information about the iPhone launch, I ran across this article on yahoo:
The first paragraph isn’t even a complete sentence. I don’t see who reported this number and later in the article they claim cnet.com estimates their number. Zero fact in this article and it’s so vague that you have no way to verify where the numbers came from.
Yahoo! where the heck do you get the people who takes these Reuters feeds and re-write them?
