Over 10,000 digital photos taken

Yesterday afternoon I took digital photo number 10,000. Between the three digital cameras that I've owned (and excluding the one that I borrowed from my sister, which was a gift from her friend Char), I've taken the following. From April 6 2005 to May 9 2007, I took 2924 photos with a Canon 300D (Digital Rebel). From May 18 2007 to March 29 2008, I took 6447 photos with a Canon Digital Rebel XT (350D).

Recently, I've been thinking a lot about where I'd like to be when I get older. For as long as I can remember I've been thinking ahead - it's just the way I am. The time frame has spanned from a mere hours from the present, to a number of years. Thirty (30), though, is a pretty special kind of birthday. The fact that it's about 3 years and 3 months away for me, makes it even particularly more so.

Yes, I'm still alive, I'm just not posting ... Since Friday I've been fighting a cold/flu, and the cold weather hasn't much helped. However, last Saturday morning I was feeling better, and along with lunch, picked up a camera I'll be writing about once this cold is dead. Another camera? I've still got my Canon 350D, but I haven't used it since it's gotten so cold. I decided that if I picked up a point-and-shoot camera I'd probably take more pictures.

Right before Christmas of 2007, I purchased a copy of Warhawk, for the Playstation 3. I didn't pick it up until the day after Christmas (what a bad idea; I should have just purchased in store, but ...) and have played a mere 16 hours (94 games). With my total points of 1153, I'm only 113315 out of the 410195 players, world wide. Granted, that's not too terribly bad, but I need to make a goal if I'm going to apply myself.

The other day, after a deal of research, I decided to pick up a copy of <oXygen/>, which is "a complete cross platform XML editor providing the tools for XML authoring, XML conversion, XML Schema, DTD, Relax NG and Schematron development, XPath, XSLT, XQuery debugging, SOAP and WSDL testing." This provided to be the key to finally understanding XML Schema, or at least getting a working Schema for an XML file.

A while ago, I posted a link to an XML file that contained my vehicle's gas information. Since my vehicle recently turned over its 10,000 mile, I figured it was time to post the link again. View my vehicle's gas information.

Years and years ago I was young. My father had moved out of his parent's house by this time (meaning the time I'm recollecting on), and had possibly lived at at least one other place. Anyways, he ended up living at my Uncle Pat's place. I don't recall the first couple of visits to the place, but I remember the place well enough. Recollections of the place itself will have to wait, though, since that's not what I wanted to speak about.

A while back, I ended up recording a number of my pieces using the free Audacity software. However, the files soon disappeared from the Web. These have been added to the respective posts, and are once again available for download. Use the listen tag to find the articles. At this time, it looks like there are just three, but more will be added.

Updated for BlogEngine.NET 1.3! Not a very original name, but I can see how it was created ... Anyways, I'm proud to present another theme for BlogEngine.NET, called MWRT-002. This theme is based upon the template of the same name by MyWebResource, and made available on Open Source Web Design. A zip of the theme can be downloaded from my testing site at JamesRSkemp.net. Download the zip file - for BlogEngine.
