VisiPics (Duplicate Picture Finder)

This is some awesome software. It is also free. I got it from downloads.com from what I remember. Be prepared for a lot of time to be spent working on this if you choose to get it.

Welcome back me.

Well I know I have neglected this by far. It is time to change that and get shit done.

In the Kitchen

Hey have you ever gotten stuck on what to fix or a recipe that you wish you had. Well I found a website a few years ago that have been a wonder to use. The place that I go when I need ideas or help is www.allrecipes.com . It is quite the website. It has it where you can look up by ingredients that you would like to use for a dish. It also has it where you can look it up by many other categories. When it shows the results for a recipe search it can be further customized by rating, relevance and such. One of my favorite recipes that I have come across is called Buttermilk Cornbread. I have also come across a really good Truffles recipe.

I make all kinds of stuff for the family and many things for the guys when we are gaming and this website has proven to be quite the lifesaver.

I thought I would share this with those that have those clueless moments on what to fix or those that want a recipes that has been tried by many and loved.

Starving Artist

Here is something I have always wondered about. How do artists that are Po' ever afford their art supplies? I have more than quite a few others out there when it comes to some of the basic things. But the one thing that is on my mind that I am lacking for material things is the art supplies that I need to be able to create my works of art to the best of my ability. Now don't get me wrong I do have some art supplies but they are in the beginner supplies category. ACK!!! Imagine having a wonderful idea for all kinds of poses for a model and not having the nice Digital SLR camera with the lighting props, instead you have the disposable camera where you go and pay for some inexpensive 3x5 one copy prints. Now that can be aggravating.

I have wasted my money on trying to find monetary help in the form of searching for grants along with endless hours of trying to find a good deal on art supplies where I find something I really like but of course life takes its toll and priorities holler at me and snicker behind my back, while my creative side shakes its fist.

The scholarships out there are another matter. I am almost 30, married and have three children but don't have the qualifications anymore like I used to. So it is a bitch to even find something that matches what qualifications I have to offer.

Where is an understanding Philanthropist or more when you need them???

Hmmm.

Well, here I have joined the WWW of blogging. Boy do I feel like a bit of a nerd. Oh wait, I AM A NERD!!! LOL. NOT all those that blog are nerds though. I have been debating on doing this for quite some time and finally broke down and started it. It has been overdue I guess you could say.
Everyone that knows me is aware that I am quite opinionated but then go figure I am a LEO and have to roar about a few things here and there. Albeit I am pretty good at sticking my foot in my mouth at the same time once in a while.

But, here goes.
