This is why the Japanese are better at math. Once you figure this out it’ll blow your mind…
The lines and numbers above may not make any sense at first, but according to William C. at Themetapicture.com: “The lines over the circles are color coded. notice the single red line and 3 blue lines representing “13” group together while the single green and 2 black lines take their own group. [Simply] draw your first group of lines in one direction then your second group of lines going over the first, count the groups of intersections and there’s your answer.”
I am cleaning my desktop. I found some stuff I really didn’t know what to do with…
Leilani reads the blog a lot.. so here she’ll see it for sure.
I don’t like making fun of animals, but after seeing so many shots of majestic soaring or fish-catching eagles I thought this one was pretty funny
Now that I have all my photos on the desktop I found a whole lot of forgotten photos. These were taken in the Bay Area last May, on a group hike. Sadly I have forgotten what hike it was… at least I remember all my friends who hiked with us :-) I hope Andy can help with title and comments…
A few other photos are there too, not of the hike.
I worked on photos a lot during my Christmas vacation in Austin. Sadly, a day after we got back my Macbook crashed, and for a while I thought I had lost all the photos posted below, and some other stuff, as the last backup had been more than 2 weeks before the trip.
Only the display is broken, but since my data was in a File-vault (somewhat encrypted) it was completely invisible at first and I thought there was a problem with the hard drive. It was not really easy to get the photos off without the right tools, cables and connectors and the stores closed already (Friday night on Kauai… and Saturday too…)
Anyway, with a lot of good Karma (probably Leilani’s), 2 other computers and a lot of time (Sonja’s) we managed to get everything off. The entire photo library, all movies, the Christmas and camping lists… I was happy enough about that that I spent the last 2 hours posting all 200 or so photos in 17 posts (including this one), and while this article is on top you can see them all on these pages:
Or, as always, just use the “Older Posts ->” link at the bottom of each page.
So anyway, yesterday I wrote a caption on Leilani’s BD post that the skyping photo with Andy was probably the last macbook photo… but no. I found this one taken Dec. 23rd. Especially in it’s last 4, 5 months the Macbook had always been nice and toasty warm, and these long Kauai winter nights are cold… so Mikey was warming his cold feet underneath it. More often than that he just sat or laid down on it though, I remember posting a photo like that a while ago.
(I actually had brought it into the Mac shop in September, because I suspected that the running so hot could eventually damage something, but right as I was,… as things often go the diagnostics showed nothing wrong…)
