Turning a Frog Into a Butterfly

My first exercise in my Photoshop class was turning a toy frog into a picture using the Light/Darken/Transform tools.  Not sure how this will help me in real life, but here is the stock image:

And one of the images I made by manipulating it:

My Favorite Day of the Week...

is Chicken Parmagiana day.  I wander the streets of Melbourne until my nose and the menus posted outside restaurants (genius! USA take notes) read “Chicken Parmagiana”, or “Meal of the Gods”.  Now I don’t just bolt in every restaurant that has this delicious dish, oh no baby birds, they have to earn it.  Since I am a poor uni student it has to be reasonably priced.  Once these two criterium are met…game on, take me to the trough.  The joy I get from this leads me to why I vote for a mandatory “Eat What You Love Day of the Week”…I think everyone would benefit.  Here is what it’ll bring to the table

  • Happier people
  • More productive people
  • Nicer people
  • Stimulate the restaurant business
  • Stimulate all vertically integrated businesses

This day could alone take any slow economy and put it into hyperdrive.  Did I just cure every economic slowdown in the world?  I think so.

Tomorrow’s topic: Cannibalism: The Cure to the World’s Hunger.

I Love Bandwidth!

It’s true.  I love bandwidth.  I love it so much I went to my 6GB cap in 10 days.  I guess I’ll have to change a lot of my Internet usage habits.  I miss America’s Internet.  I did find an unsecured wifi for my iPhone to hop on though, score.

Australia...you're so cute.

I just checked the weather for tomorrow and this is what it has told me:

“Times of clouds and sun, High of 61 degrees.”

Translating to Americanese:  Partly Cloudy.

What a good outlook on like…eh tomorrow’s going to have times of clouds, but no worries it’ll have sun too
