Photo Fun and Updates….
Tuesday, February 12th, 2008Sorry for the posting delay, things got busy at the chocolate factory! Although my temper has been fairly short lately, I am proud to report that I am officially classified now as a non-smoker. Having been 44 days now with no craving of the Camel goodness, the Chantix site says I can call myself a non-smoker. I have to say to all of you curious about it, it was friggin’ easy. No B.S. E A S Y ……
Like bending steel with your scrotum. Or spending Easter with your deaf-mute third cousin. Easier than chewing tin foil with open cavities. Easier than meeting your daughter’s first ‘boyfriend‘. Easier than…. geez I hope you get the picture….
Actually, it wasn’t as bad as I make it out to be. Once I got used to being able to breathe much better, handle all that loss of fatigue, and truly came to grips with the actual odor I put off (rather than the nicotine tinged one), it was cake.
On to fun !!!
Do you like taking pictures? I don’t. Do you like looking at pictures? I do. How can we meet in the middle? Well, I’m glad you asked! Check out PicLens. It is cooler than the Fonz, easy to install, and so useful that it will change the way you search for photos. Check it out, put it on your computer, and enjoy the virtues of assisted search!! Also, be sure to see 3 other whiz bang ideas for photo fun that I posted on the Texas-Fire Photo Discussion page.

I’m gonna have to check out Piclens more later on. I’m off shortly to try and get some pics.

I’m not sure I get it…is it just for viewing pics?

it is. the way that I have used it the most so far is by going to Google or Flickr and searching for a broad spectrum topic, and then using PicLens to search quickly thru hundreds of photos.
i’m sure it has many other uses, but for right now that is what has amazed me about it

I have to agree with you Mookie, CHANTIX does work! I smoked 2 to 3 packs a day. If I can quit, anyone can quit!!! Trubee
