My Photos

All photos are my own, unless otherwise stated.  For those of you who think you need a high-powered camera, I did these with a Cannon point and shoot, when I first got away from film and into digital.  Among them are some, which I have turned into graphics in Gimp or Photoshop.  Gimp is free, and I can assure you that for most purposes it is just as good as Photoshop and easier to learn to use (They have a really good manual, which you can download).  I believe that Gimp has made it possible to work with raw photos now as well.

I have a really nice Nikon I bought, but since the car accident I was in, my wrists are not as strong as they were, and I haven't been doing photography.  I'm planning to get a lighter camera, and start doing more photography really soon here.  It is one of my loves, and I miss it.

Truth Or Consequencies

I wrote this essay as a comment to articles on the following site: http://www.becker-posner-blog.com/archives/2007/02/ One might not think so, but there is a relationship, between trans fat, global warming and the drunk driving issue. Unfortunately, I think that the problem has to do with education. These days in school, we are so afraid to step on someone's toes, so we avoid teaching morals in school, and why should we? Are you shocked? Read further. It has always seemed quite interesting to me that no one can come up with a simple means to start teaching community, integrity, self responsibility and the like to young children from their very first textbooks. I don't see that the word God has to be in there or in order to do that. All great religions teach a core of values that cross borders. There are values that are there in the constitution and the creation of America . By the way, a constitution created by people (whether or not you want to call it a dem...

Finding Agreement

Someone made a comment as to my using 'We' on the list of questions a few posts back. I used the word we in reference to we, as the human race! This is a semantic disagreement. It was 'We' not leaving myself out. If I say, "How long is the human race going to", it is a bit cold, depersonalized and it is sounds like I am leaving myself out. I then could be accused of thinking myself superior. If I would say, "How long are the the Jews or the Muslims or the Christians," it is separating myself from them. Now, think about this in reference to religious works that were written hundreds and hundreds of years ago, which we expect to translate literally and were often times written in poetic language. If you add to this that we are all in human form and the consciousness of spirit has to filter down through a mind of certain time period's knowledge and experience, even in saints, and then add to that, holy books were often written way after the ...
