Violet Helleborine Orchid (Epipactis purpurata) taken at an undisclosed location on the South Downs, South Downs National Park, West Sussex England
Julie's macpro refused to boot this morning, so instead of riding a nice 100k I spent the ENTIRE EFFING DAY inside trying to coax it into recovering the disk.
Sadly, I think that the disk controller on the 'pro is dying, so I ended up having to reinstall onto the original SSD after plugging it into a SATA->USB adapter (reinstall osx 10.8, recover s-l-o-w-l-y from the time machine server, and hopefully I'll then be able to insert the ssd into the machine and have it hobble along until I can swap in a new logic board. Failing that I'll just duct tape the drive to the outside of the case!
(And apropos of all hardware sucking, just look at the lens distortion at the edges of this photo!)
Drinker Moth Caterpillar (Euthrix potatoria) on the South Downs, South Downs National Park, West Sussex England
Leopard Marsh Orchid (Dactylorhiza praetermissa var. junialis) at Ferring Rife, near Worthing West Sussex England
What you should note here is that 3 our of my 4 internal hard drives, on my Mac Pro... are dying.
What's that you say, you only see 2 dying drives? Well.. that's cause the start up drive already died.. and I had to swap it with the old start up drive...
The issue here is that for some reason I did not install snow leopard on this hard drive.. and now my snow leopard disk doesn't want to install... which is causing SOOO many problems for me..
Not the least of which that flash doesn't want to work so I can't watch a significant amount on line video.. I can't run a pretty significant portion of my software... and on and it goes!

On December 23, 2014, I donated my Mac Pro 1.1 I got in April, 2007, so it may be help someone else express their creativity and productivity.
This Mac assisted me throughout college as well as writing OpenZoom. Farewell, my friend.

Tomice, Poland, July 2011
Disused railway crossing. It has not seen any action for quite a while. Even the stop sign is falling on a side. As they say in Poland - PKP (Pięknie, ku*wa, pięknie!).

iPad 2 with Bluetooth Keyboard; MacPro 15" 2.7 GHz dual-core Intel i7, 8 GB RAM with Cintiq 18" and a GriffinPowermate knob; Modbook 2009 4 GB RAM on an Ergotron stand with a mini keyboard, and a kneeling back chair to keep the lean-in from breaking my back and neck. All on a 48" wide Anthro desk, with about 2TB of daisy-chained Firewire 800 drives on the shelf under the desk.
Today is my first Saturday after the last day of school for students. It is still raining and is predicted to rain during the 3-day Memorial weekend before our 3 days of post-planning next week. I went to the Hair Clinic this morning and Mary Clark washed, rolled, dried, and set my hair. It should be easy to care for in Vegas. The dry climate will be so much better than this high humidity in south Georgia.
When I arrived back home from the Hair Clinic, I enjoyed surfing the web and reading stuff about American Idol Season 8 which was the first season I'd ever watched. I'm glad that I can follow many people on twitter. Danny Gokey twittered for fans to download all the studio versions of his performances. I checked my iTunes and saw that I'd only downloaded 5 studio versions; so, I downloaded the other 6 studio versions. Then I put them on my iPod. Now I'll have plenty of music to listen to while on the flight to Vegas in less than 2 weeks.
In addition, one of my favorites on YouTube, musicmaker85, uploaded a new piece on the organ. Yay!
Well, I'll have to admit that I've sat and half-watched the NCIS marathon on USA. I watch the shows better when I'm in my lounge chair in the living room, but, then I fall asleep. When I'm at my computer in my office, I get interested in reading something on the web and don't pay attention to the show or play a video from iTunes or from the web. Hmmmm......am I the only one who does this sort of thing?
And speaking of reading things on the web, I got on a tangent of reading about restaurants in Vegas. I thought I'd look for some restaurants with coupons from restaurant.com. I'm only interested in 2 or 3 that are listed, but I'm not convinced to buy them yet because of some reviews I've read. Also, Jim and I have our favorite places we like to eat. It's hard to change tradition.

Little Egret (Egretta garzetta) at RSPB Medmerry at Bracklesham Bay, near Selsey, West Sussex England
The sticky plastic protector for my macpro keyboard kept making marks on my screen. so now whenever I close the cover, I place this cool ass A4 art card over it to prevent the marks.
A4 mix medium piece
printed the base logo, spray painted the particles and then fine lines added with a fine tip pen.

Our 11th day on Holiday, back to San Elijo Lagoon
American Kestrel (Falco sparverius) at San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve near Solana Beach, North San Diego County, California USA
So I experienced my first business event and it was totally fun. It was less stress than a wedding but still worked hard to deliver good photos.
