    Been rendering my booty off to get ignored... so I'm goona let you folks ignore them too...
    The busted door is called Death Knocks but Once
    The Primitives is called Hunting and Gathering
    The nurse is called The Next Step Too Far...

    All very good! Why would they be ignored? As for the first one...what if I'm not home? Does that mean I get to live forever? :) I can live with that. He looks mean, anyway. But then, all my stuff would be stolen when the punks see that the door is busted down.

    First day of autumn for us on saturday so spring can't be far behind for you there :)

    Was raining a little before

    Yeah, meteorological spring today...but it's snowing! It's like birtdhays...it's just another day, the word spring means nothing!

    That's my complaint...for now.

    ...well gotta get to bed. Like I mentioned it's been a very long day that started early. Met up with some friends who bought me dinner and a couple pints tonight, so brain completely starved of oxygen and and very, very tired.

    Local team did good too, Portland over Brooklyn 124 to 80. Hopefully that's a good omen.

    Pray that the Senate does the right thing and finally approves the UC extension so the rest of us can get on with life and have the resources we need to get ourselves reemployed.

    If you can write your senators and tell them to pass this please do so. We need all the help and good vibes we can get right now.

    Thank you

    Night all.

    Always a good thought for you KK :)
    ...thank you.

    All of you here have been the greatest and have kept me going even when I felt her was little left to look forward to.

    ...more water from the skies in liquid from here. Not supposed to be happening until the weekend. At least it's not freezing. Have a workshop to attend to ay about on the job training programmes. Seems my skills and experience has pretty much done nothing for me so far so maybe a change is in order. If I can learn something that doesn't require putting extra strain on my already messed up joints & bones or a demand high degree of dexterity that would be great.

    i don't understand how to use the smart phone keyboard. it says i can scribble between the letters, but it adds funky words, not the letter i'm drawing.

    figured out how to use the camera but not how to find the picture after it makes the noise. my face looks sunburned red, i haven't anything sugary today, a couple of pretzel sticks and a cup of cawffee.

    says something about holding the voice button and the keyboard, but i don't see a 'voice' button. hmmmm

    i need a teenager to train me on the smart phone :lol:

    ...how true these days.

    A friend gave me his smartphone to enter my email address for helping with job networking and I couldn't do it without hitting two to three other letters at the same time. I finally gave up and wrote it down so he could enter it,

    I don't know how others can do it, especially with the thumbs which are the widest digits on the hands.

    I already have two still cameras (that use this stuff called "film"), Two video cameras (that use this recording medium called "tape"), and two computers with net access (and "real" keyboards). Just give me a phone that just works like - a phone.

    i don't even know why i bought this thing. i was on the phone with t-mobile support, he says for 50 cents more i can have unlimited data with my plan.

    so silly me is like oh, i need a phone with internet. now i'm paying an extra 10 for the phone every month.

    which was probably the dastardly plan all along.

    There should be one or two pages with photos of the phone and callouts showing what each button and input is. Usually that is near the beginning of the manual.

    Sound about right. I have a Samsung Alias 2, which can get on the Internet and all that...but I can't afford the extra money for the data plan, so I don't use it. It's just a phone. It's got a 2 megapixel camera...but I keep forgetting to save the image after I shoot it. I only have used it a couple of times.

    I even had the texting feature blocked on my account. I have nobody to text, and I was getting wrong numbers and advertisements or something. I don't need that, I don't have an unlimited text plan, either.

    ...keep a watch on your bills. After I was given a temporary "free" upgrade to their fastest service with my ISP late last summer, in January my bill shot up from 49$ to 85$ (without any warning). I had to get them to "downgrade" my service back to the basic level and issue me a credit for the difference as the premium service just didn't "turn off" when the bonus offer expired. You may find that 10$ becoming more of a surcharge in 3 - 6 months.

    And to make this even more ridiculous, their television service was added to my account and I don't even have a telly. Took me several CS "chat" sessions (primarily with offshore operators who had Hindu names) to finally have it removed.

    I stillfeel there is a discrepancy for I came across the original adjustment to my January bill and the payment amount was reduced to 31$ & change A few weeks after that I received a bill for 116$. I may have to haggle on this some more.

    I hold the smart phone with my left hand and type using my right index finger. Yes, I tap all 26 letters of the keyboard with my right index finger, not my thumbs. I am weird.

    Morning. The last day of summer, clear bright and warm and incredibly after all the heat some green is poking through all the brown and gold in our garden, how does it know to do that right on cue?

    I thank you everyone who commented. Except for the Door render in my own thread I did get more feedback here than in any other thread. Yes I'm a needy person but then I'm one of those insecure types. Also I just play at what I do, I'm not out for perfect, its just nice to get a looks good every once in awhile. Oddly my Jade stuff does very well, other stuff not so much.

    I've had a question for a long time, but was uncomfortable asking...

    How is your name pronounced?
    Is it pronounced Jaid-err-ale?
    Or is it pronounced Jaid-rail?

    Just curious, and I hate not knowing how to pronounce something.

    Last day of summer is half over, still amazed at all the green shoots peeking through the mulch in our garden, we only had a half cup full of rain the past two months must have been just enough :). Astounding tomato crop this year :)

    Count this as one more positive comment about your work. :)
    I can't always think of something to say about good work. "Good job!" starts to sound hollow with repetition, even though I always mean it. :)
