- My iPhoto database is corrupt. When I run iPhoto it crashes instantly and I've had no luck getting it to launch without loosing all my database info such as film rolls and image rotation and so forth. Further, I haven't been able to find anyone who's had similar problems and been able to fix it. So frustrating. |

- Oh, another thing from my visit to Georgia. Upon explaining that I've been attending an American Baptist church, a discussion ensued with my grandfather, who's an upstanding member of a neighborhood Southern Baptist church in his small city. Some question came up about the difference between the two, and I asserted what I've understood for a while: that the SBC broke off from the main denomination because the SBC founders believed that slavery was okay and the ABC believed that it wasn't. That went off about as well as the proverbial fart in the church; |

- John Kerry started airing an ad today saying he never called for a 900 billion dollar taxincrease. The ad repeated his claims that he will cut middle class taxes, cut the deficit and improve health care. His health care plan will cost 900 billion dollars, by his own estimates. Obviously, the numbers don't add up. How can you cut taxes, dramatically increase spending, and still cut the budget? |

- I was always the kid who insisted there was a monster in the closet or under the bed or outside my window. Many, many nights in my lifetime have passed sleeplessly due to my overactive imagination. For a couple hours tonight I became convinced that a villain might be hiding in my backyard. Mind you my dog Q, with his keen ears and zeal for barking, would alert me if anything mildly unusual were to arise. But somehow his dutiful watchfulness can’ |

- I have a file drawer packed with old church bulletins and orders of worship. Last night I pulled out the file and went through it, removing the lookalikes from the same church until the file contained only unique handouts. Usually I stick these in my Bible, and when I get home they get removed from the Good Book and wind up in the file. When I'm traveling and visit a church, I make sure I save whatever printed Order of Worship is handed out. Most of them are from Reformed, Lutheran, and Anglican churches I've visited over the years along with the ones from churches I've held membership in. |

- Had an interview yesterday, and I've got one tomorrow as well. If everything goes well, I will be very much employed before my birthday. Maybe now I can buy a foot spa for my tore-down tootsies. Oh, the pain!... |

- Jenny, you've just identified a key problem with researching SEO - many articles become swiftly out of date, and yet may still be around. Worse though is that hundreds of articles get ripped off and reposted, so that some articles put online today are actually just plagiarisms of things that were already out of date, yet are presented as the latest info. |

- Un an après sa création et une interessante première édition placée sous le signe du cinéma de fantômes, le festival Strasbourgeois Ecrans Japon offre de (re)découvrir une sélection de 11 films d'après la thématique "amour/haine, sentiments jumeaux". La sélection s'annonce riche et équilibrée entre classiques (La Femme des sables de Teshigahara Hiroshi, Désir meurtrier d'Imamura Shohei ou encore l'Empire de la Passion de Oshima Nagisa), film cultes (Furyo du même Oshima, Elegie de la Bagarre de Suzuki Seijun), raretés (le très beau roman-porno Le rideau de Fusuma de Kumashiro Tatsumi), films contemporains (Sonatine de Kitano Takeshi, Tokyo Decadence de Murakami Ryu) et avant-premières attendues (Le Seprent Blancde Yabushita Tajii, Seance, le nouveau Kurosawa Kyoshi et surtout Gozu de Miike Takashi, présenté dans sa version intégrale). Comme l'an dernier, le festival aura lieu aux Cinémas Star à Strasbourg, en partenariat avec d'autres salles de la région. Le rendez vous est donc pris pour les 02 et 03 avril 2004.
