    Mr. Richard Haseltine is back. I was wondering where he went. I guess he was taking cover from the big storm that hit Europe a few days ago.

    I'm going to Youtube to look for videos of birds in Australia. later


    Finding Nemo is set in Sydney, partially. :) the seagulls there say "mine. mine. mine."

    i'm tempted to go to Australia now. :D Thanks for sharing the pictures of the birds and seagulls. Like I said before, I'll need to fly from BWI or Dulles Airport and switch planes in Los Angeles. The flight is about 25 to 30 hours with a layover. Wow. I noticed that there are more flights leaving Dulles than BWI. BWI is kind of a small airport but it offers flights to London and the Caribbean.

    I gotta eat lunch now. bye

    ...Halloween Complaint:

    Google decide to play a trick on me by changing the login screen for my GMail to a universal login for all of Google. In so doing the new sign in page does not remember my password.

    As I have not been required to enter the password in for years, I do not remember it either. I really do not care to go though password recovery/change because of this as it can suspend the account. The really screwy thing is I can access it normally from the workstation, just not the notebook. The two catches to this however is I cannot be running a render at the same time as it really slows everything down and I believe being online with the Workstation for an extended period of time is the reason for the blue screens (something to do with a command which stalls that relates to HTML).

    ...I don't know why they don't ask you first if you want these changes. Save for Net searches, email and you tube (the latter I can sign onto when I wish). I don't use any of their other services so I don't need some "universal all accounts" sign in. Ended up clicking add account out of desperation which is where I finally found my original sign in (with password filled in) buried.

    Another case of "don't fix it because it ain't broke"

    Reminds me of a line said by Bones McCoy in the first Start Trek film:

    "If I know engineers they love to change things."

    Complaint: I am massively hurting cause it is raining out, but it is pleasantly warm. My legs keep going numb while I'm sitting at my desk. I have to finish this texturing so can't take a break. I gotta get up every 40 minutes or so cause my back is tightening up and killing.

    Thanks. It's always worse when I'm working 10-14 hour days. Rain, snow, or cold just make it worse.

    I was looking these up after seeing those beautiful photos. I think I have them identified :
    Top: The Eastern Rosella
    Middle: The Crimson Rosella
    Bottom: The Western Rosella
    The Western variety is the smallest, at 10 inches long. I want one! Beautiful plumage. Much prettier than a dead Norwegian Blue. :)

    ...Qantas unfortunately doesn't serve Dulles You have to fly Ameriflot to Dallas or LA first. A better way might be to take the Acela to New York and fly out of there as Qantas has a direct flight that makes one stop. That way you don't need to fly on a domestic carrier, change planes, and get socked with domestic luggage fees.

    ...and it's 747 all the way.

    British does fly out of BWI and has a connection to Sydney via LHR (Heathrow) A bit longer trip but you get full cabin service all the way (unlike on a US domestic flight ) and a generous free luggage allowance.

    ...that happens to me as well. Usually it's my hips and thighs that begin aching badly.

    ...and to make matters worse, it's no longer pleasantly warm here anymore.

    Spent several late nights wrestling with a shader issue that kept rendering grainy no matter what I tired. Finally got halfway decent results from an overnight render last night. Still not quite the way I want it to look but the best I feel I can get. Woke up tired but I have a dinner invite tonight to get ready for.

    ...yeah, since the whole cell & wireless kick happened they are indeed a rare sight today. The closest one to where I live is about a mile away.

    ...and I live in the city.
