Today's Peeve

It's gotten so I cannot watch a pro football game on Sunday without turning the sound off and listening to music instead. Other than the top groups, the announcers usually suck. The commercials seem never ending (especially the break after a touchdown, come back for a kickoff, then back to another 3-minute break) and half of them are the networks plugging their crappy television shows.

Corollary: Ads for the network's new shows: "everybody's talking about ...". How is that possible when THE FIRST EPISODE HASN'T EVEN AIRED YET!

Panoramic Fool

Since Photoshop CS3 came out with its fantastic photomerge feature to blend layers, I have been having a ball with my digital SLR in creating panoramic photos from some of the vistas to be seen near Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. I have added a bunch of them to the Larimer County photo gallery.
