Potential new car!

Might be looking at a 2010 Mercury Milan Premier V6.  :)

Ridiculous!

Seriously?  Do people have nothing better to do than sit around and wait for you to use your debit card, steal the number and then go on a shopping spree?  WTF!?

Porsche 911 GT3 RS

pp_1240

Model:  2007 Porsche 911 (997) GT3 RS

Made by:  AUTOart

Scale:  1/18

Finally got myself one of these.  :)  I’m debating on whether or not to also acquire the green version…

Canon Wi-Fi Printer

Finally bought a wi-fi printer and WOW!  This thing is cool!  It’s the Canon MG5220 and setting it up was fairly easy.  $99 at Walmart.  :)

Chevy Truck

1972 Chevy C-10

1:18 scale by Highway 61







I love this model!  I've been wanting one of these trucks for awhile now, so this is very cool to finally have one.

Cheap Benz

$46 shipped.  Not bad for an AUTOart model.  Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.0 sedan.  Nicely done, overall.  I may need to do a side-by-side shot with the newer C-Class descendant of this car.  :-)

Shelby GT500

Greenlight finally released their GT500 diecast (1/18 scale):










Not a bad model, despite a few minor hiccups (including overly dark wheels, among other things).  I really like it.  They packed a lot of detail into this car.

Gran Turismo 5

This game is way overdue...like three years overdue.  It was supposed to be released "early 2010" and now it has been pushed back to "November 2010".  Yeah...I'll believe it when I see it.

On the night shift...

Grave shifts suck.  Especially when they are 12 hours long.  Ugh!

Paint Shop Pro X2

It took me awhile to figure out all the upgrades to PSP X2 over my previous PSP 7.  But now that I'm familiar with PSP X2, I can't imagine using PSP 7 anymore.  X2 is so much more powerful! 

I've added a very cool Alienskin Software plug in (Exposure 2) that applies filters that emulate film, and it does so very well.  I can create some very interesting effects with it...or just enhance the color and tonality of the photo.  Cool!
