So I'm an idiot.

You've read, perhaps, my commentary on Adobe Photoshop Elements. Well, I was quite frustated when I ran a recent batch process, and not only did my resize/convert job take seemingly forever to complete, it appeared to use nearly 100% of my CPU while it was doing so. This didn't happen last time. I let it run overnight, and much to my surprise, I quickly discovered what the problem was. The 2272x1704 JPEG images I was trying to resize to 1000x750 GIF's were set to inches, not pixels. Ergo, I was creating 300+MB GIF images with a resolution of 30,000 pixels!

This ain't your father's Photoshop.

No, I don't. I do a lot of dumb, stupid and otherwise not-worthy-of-mention type things that you don't know about.

Anything you do hear about is usually something I don't mind getting grief over.

I did tell you about the latest Blue Portal project called Big Sister, right? We're always watching...

Gosh, I've been getting that line a lot lately. What, do I look like a prime target for intimidation tactics?! Sheesh.

No, just someone to be monitored closely.

Ha! Yes, I could be the next real threat to society as we know it.

I half expected my face to be photoshopped into it.

But if it makes you feel any more comforted, I would shoot first and ask questions later. In fact, on my list of to-do's before the end of the year, is to get a concealed weapon permit and a handgun to actually conceal. Me with a gun. Are you scared yet?
