I just wanted to say hi to old friends. I'm still kicking, though fairly 
lamely.

Been in a rut and moved my activities from one country to another
while I live in a third. Same old rat-race.

Also changed computers from PC to Mac. I had to get a new one and at
the time, only machines with Vista were being delivered. I couldn't
wait for Windows 7 so I went with OS X. I've certainly not become a
Mac-fanatic. It's alright, but there are a lot of things that are
extremely irritating (like the design flaw of not having a right-hand
mouse key and the idiotic placement of the cmd key right to the right
of the space bar, where we touch-typists hit it all the time, thinking
we'll find the "alt" key there, resulting in everything we were doing
getting lost).

This one will go down into the grave with me:

And this is what it looks like up here in the early afternoon:

Haven't got my scanning trimmed in for the Mac yet. Been mostly
digital and off-topic stuff.

Anyway, greetings!

Daniel
