A boxshot of Microsoft Write for the Atari ST. A nice word processor, although extremely buggy. I don't think there was ever an update available ...
A moment of honesty in my journal in December...
I did two pages of this but the light's so bad today, i couldn't seem to get a clear enough photo of the second page. So watch out, more to come.

"It is not enough to write a revolutionary poem" is an adapted version of the "Southern Constellations: Poetics of the Non-Aligned" exhibition that was first shown in the Museum of Modern Art, Ljubljana in 2019. The second edition was presented in the Asia Culture Center in Gwangju, South Korea in 2020. The exhibition in Rijeka is conceptualized in a different way as it happens on the occasion of the sixtieth anniversary of the first NAM conference in Belgrade. It focuses on the historical cases as a kind of introduction to the cultural politics of the non-aligned movement; projects and researches presented are related to the cultural exchanges and cultural programs between Yugoslavia and the non-aligned countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America. The exhibition also includes contemporary works that examine the relevance or the use of NAM’s ideas for today from the position that “it is not enough to write a revolutionary poem”.
Curator:
Bojana Piškur (Museum of Modern Art, Ljubljana)
Featured artists:
Dan Acostioaei, Nika Autor, Đorđe Balmazović, Ferenc Gróf, Ibro Hasanović, Dubravka Sekulić, Hyun-Suk Seo and Mila Turajlić

I don't know if anyone ever reads my descriptions, but I write them anyway, so there!!
Was out today (August 20th 2021) on a forced vacation day, from 9:30AM til' almost 4PM. 80F today but it felt like 100F. This is a very active line and I probably flicked 20 freights today. 750+ flicks. By the time I get rid of a few duplicates, and bad ones, I'm guessing it'll be about 700 +/-. 700 to straighten, fix any color issues, upload, and also ID the writers. It's lots of time and as you can imagine, it's a lot of work, but so far it's been fun. I'm trying to not rush myself to post before I'm ready. I already have the flicks, and they're timeless. So getting them posted ASAP!!!!!! is not really my concern. Duh..
Had an interesting interaction with a guy while out there. Guy with backpack had walked back and forth across the tracks a few times. The lat time I saw him he was on the other side of a set, about 100 yards away. Next thing you know he's coming closer..... Closer..... And I'm like WTF? I'm way out here minding my own business. He walks within' like 10 ft. of me and I say "How ya' doin'?" he says something, and then says "Trains?" and I say "Yep." and he says "Oh.." and walks away. I think he was feelin' me out, as there's a small population of people who's homes are shall I say, mobile. I've talked to a few of them, and have never had a bad interaction, I just don't like people walkin' up on me when I'm trying to get away from the rest of the world out by the tracks. I go out there to get away from people, not to interact.
======================
I follow some other amazing photographers on flickr, but for this I will talk about the ones who flick the freights. There are a few that I really love. Some it's because of the great locations they shoot at, and others it's the amazing little details they manage to capture. For me (right now) I don't have the luxury of walking the lines and seeing pieces static. 99.999% of my flicks the freight is rolling by at 10-50 mph and sometimes I don't really even know what I have until I get home, dump the memory cards and go through the photos. Because of this, most of my flicks are just straight on shots and documenting what I saw and where. I saw this freight here, on this date, here's what was on it, and i captured it. Buffed or scraped next week, well I have it on "film" for future generations (sounds corny, I know). There are times when a freight will stop in-front of me, and I'll walk up and get some shots of monikers, but it's rare.
Obviously in any area there are sidings where freights park for extended periods, I know a few spots, but as I get older, and older, do I really want to leave my car parked on the side of the road and walk 2 miles to capture some little details I might normally miss? I'd love to, but it's just not practical for me at this time, any many other people do it better than I could. Retirement is getting closer every day, maybe then, when my weekdays are free. :-)
======================
During the Covid lockdown, I was working from home, and I was getting out benching like 2 & 3 times a month. Back at work, I'm lucky to have the energy to get out once a month. Every time I do manage to get out, I come home and my batteries feel re-charged. It's been so f-ing hot here in SoCal though, I can't wait for cooler weather and some clouds in the sky.
As always, thanks to the writers!

A group of inmates at the Arizona State Prison Complex in Phoenix (ASPC) brought some issues to light this recent holiday season by writing and performing a play for the Corizon Health and Arizona Department of Corrections staff. The play focused on the potential loss of families due to the harmful results of substance abuse, as well as how individuals can overcome adversity and trauma by using their personal strengths, family and communities for support.
ASPC-Phoenix houses mentally ill inmates in need of intensive psychotherapeutic services. All reports state the inmates benefited immensely from their playwriting experience, and staff members were universally moved and humbled by their message.

As you could notice, Iolana have got a "new" body. I write "new" in " ", because it is not pretty new. It is after Top model resort Teresa and it has black stripes after leggins. I wanted to give her articulated body, but that one I have bought from Barbie style (barbie doll with only articulated hands - show later) didn´t match by the color. I couldn´t stand to watch her on ald body, so I have changed it on this and it is realy muuuuuch better.
I have changed her haircut as well. She was beautiful before, but now she is "WAU!!" for me.
I am so happy from her, so sorry for nearly the same pictures. :-)
Of course a dog can't sit still for long, he kept wanting to follow the light along.
