I wanted to join the fun too!

It took me more tries than I care to count but I figured out how to make animated snow in Photoshop.




It's not something I will be doing alot but it is nice to know that I figured it out. The next animation I think I'm going to work on is rain but it's not going to be today.

You know, I find it interesting that after this years election, the main reaction I heard from people was what a big waste of time and money. Yet now apparently most of us would rather their be another election instead of trying something new.

I have a lot to say about all this, but every time I try to start I keep making the ideas bigger and bigger until the point where it's too big to actually write out and post. Why can I not be precise? Still, I find it really exciting to be a part of such a historical time in this country. Mostly, I just want Canadians to give this coalition a try.

I'm annoyed that the pro-coalition rally is being held tomorrow at noon, I'm just not going to be able to make it. I soooo want to be able to show up and be a part of this and show my support, but god damn it, I have to work and it's happening too fast for me to make arrangements. The rally is being held on parliament hill if any of my Ottawa friends are interested and able to go. I will be there in spirit. Hopefully there will be another one soon.

Insane Journal has been taken over by the holiday spirit.

It's weird. I'm not really into the holiday thing yet...it just doesn't seem possible that it's already December 3 and the holidays are indeed upon us.

My tree isn't up...NOTHING is up, actually, and we usually have three trees. I haven't bought Christmas cards and I've already received quite a few. I've bought *ONE* gift and that's only because my son sent his list back in like...September and wanted something very hard to find and I staked out Ebay early to find it. I haven't even THOUGHT about what I'm getting my husband or Clover. Getting her to make a list is IMPOSSIBLE...she never wants anything.

I am just not in the mood yet. I want to backtrack so I can try it again. It's going to be here before I know it and I'm gonna be scrambling like a fool to "enjoy" the holiday. Someone stop time for me, please?

I haven't started on my gift_xchange entry yet either. *freaks out a little* I might have to change my name to Scrooge this year.

Jetzt wo meine Konzertvids endlich hochgeladen sind und statt mal endlich was für die Uni zu machen gibts jetzt den ( Farin Urlaub Racing Team Konzertbericht aus Frankfurt! )

Actually I know part of the reason why.  Thousands of jobs, and that is just directly, not counting the domino effect...

But the arguement that the Big 3 gave initially about their issues being that people can't get credit and it not having anything to do with what they do (or don't make) doesn't hold water.

Let's see....

Down here in TX in the heart of SUV, Truck and gas guzzling country there is a 18 month wait list for the "Smart Car'.  There is an average wait list of a year for most hybrids.

This alone tells me that it is an issue of the auto manufactures not planning ahead and making cars that people will need.  Just as the Gas/Oil companies want to drill on protected land.  Never mind that that would only be a stop gap.  No new oil source is forthcoming and eventually it will run out.  

But they are more interested in the short term profit and to hell with future generations.  Where the sensible long view would be to explore new and cleaner sources of energy and conserve what oil we have as best we can until those sources are viable and in abundance.

Just saying....

And feel free to disagree.

And I want to know that too! :DD

Please go back to THIS post and then you'll know why I'm soooo nosy. Lol
