Book #1 Down

That's right. I finished a book in three days, that is a new personal record for me. The book is entitled The Religion War and it is by Scott Adams. This was a sequel to Adams' first book, God's Debris and he is the author of the Dilbert comic strip. The book, unlike the comic strip, held my attention for it's duration. Although it is a fictional book, it deals with some good questions and will definitely make you think about the way that you view the world and even yourself.

My Flickr Pro account is up and running now so you can almost bet that there will be new pictures there everyday. Speaking of pictures I have noticed over my time of getting into photography that people get nervous when you get your camera out. I recall a time when I was in Boston over Christmas break where I was going to take a picture of a cool waterwall inside an office building. No sooner did I have my camera out when a security guard barked at me. Apparently I am working for al Qadea...or maybe people are getting just a little too paranoid. I mean after they told me not to take a picture inside, I went outside on the street and snapped a picture of the building.

I don't know how many fans of Seinfeld there are out there reading this, or any other TV show, but Future Shop is having a sweet sale this week. Buy one box set get the another free! I picked up seasons three and four of Seinfeld to complete my collection up to season 5. You need to check it out.

You may appriciate this flickr group. There are lots of interesting bits of law about taking pictures that most rent-a-cops tend to ignore...

I'm not sure if we can be friends anymore. Next thing you know, Bush will assume I have links to the Al Qaeda network because you can't keep your camera put away. I'm sorry, but some hidden concentration camp isn't my cup of tea. (I'm not really a conspiracy nutjob, but I don't think many of us know what happens to the people that show up on CNN all the time with supposed links to Al Qaeda.)
