592: Three Good and True Rat Stories
All three of these are true; I couldn't have made them up. I was an eye witness to all three and even ate some of number three. If you are a little queasy, you might want to read these accounts a bit later when your system has settled down.
Rat Story #1 ocurred recently after we had constructed our house in rural Veracruz. It was made o
593: Tips In Shooting Nude Digital Photography With Black And White
The world is celebrating color in full spectrum, not just in the environment but also in the computer.

Why still use black and white? If
594: Were The Good Old Days Better
When people refer to the good, old days, I don't know if those days were better or just different. I know the cipher zero was different. It hadn't been confused with the letter "O" in numbers.
I remember candy bars costing ten cents. Not only were they cheaper, they were bigger. Both children and dentists were happier.
There was a time whe
595: What Does America Say To You
The flag, apple pie and baseball - what does America say to you?
To me it also says freedom. It says pioneer spirit. It's our pioneer spirit that inspires us to build bigger and better. Shopping malls, amusement parks and space travel have been new worlds for us to conquer.

596: What Happened To The Lazy Days Of Summer
Because we live in a time of stressed-out multi-tasking, I think everyone deserves a little time to be lazy. Unfortunately, my conscience is hyperactive and won't listen to me. I have to schedule time not to do anything so I don't feel guilty about not doing anything productive.
Nevertheless, there's a fine line between being lazy and being pra
597: What If You Made a Web Page and Nobody Came To Visit
What a problem. You spend all your spare time for months creating a web page. Staying up late into the night even when you have to get up and go to work the next morning. Your wife or kids or friends wonder what happened to you and start to believe you do not care about them anymore.

599: When Is A Makeover Over
"Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?" When my mirror giggled, I made an appointment for a makeover at the "New You", a very chic beauty salon.
Did I want a manicure or a massage? How about a new hair style? I wanted the works. In by nine, out by five - just like my dry cleaning.
As soon as I walked through the salon's
600: Where Does Time Go And How Can I Stop It
As a child I thought my grandmother was a bit strange because she complained about how fast time went. Fast? It was forever until cookie time. That was then. Now time passes so fast I feel wind burn.
I have to prioritize. I have to learn to say no because no one will say it for me. I have to stop worrying about things that probably won't happe
