Anyone want to see a pic of my 2 boys? I really feel like I'm getting older by the minute.
One moment they're babies and then the next thing you know, they're all grown up and hanging out with those no good girls who have nothing better to do.
OK, here they are....
My oldest Bob. I wish he'd get a job, all he does is lay around the house.
My youngest, Bill. He can be a sneaky rascal.

As far as hanging out with girls goes, my older boy has found himself a nice one. The idea that he's old enough for that now is still disturbing, though.

You think?
He does enjoy using my computer and all the sites it has to offer. He's been angel and I've never caught him doing anything he shouldn't. His brother on the other hand...well. I swear there's at least one in every family.

Heres one of my favorite pictures of the "mini-reika"
I found it to be quite poignant as she was peering thropugh the fence at the other children playing in the yard behind us.
I can only hope she doesn't spend her lifetime being "on the outside looking in."
Blew it up to an 8x10 and have it hangiong in our living room now.

o.k. trying again for a slightly larger image.
can't do it larger using imageshack I guess, or more likely I just really don't know what the heck I'm doing! _________________ Did I dream this belief, or did I believe this dream?

oh, cool, Reika!
I double clicked on the picture and it took me to your imageshack album with all the Mini-Reika's pics! and they are bigger, like you wanted them!

Mini R looks lovely from the back. I'd love to see her.
When Ubby ubby ubby was acting strangely at school, I used to drive for 3 hours there and back to help him in the classroom. His teacher mentioned the A word to us - she has an aspie son. Nah! Can't be. And then I saw him at school lurking behind a post and watching the other kids play. It reminds me of the photo of mini Reika.
Now he has friends! "Everyone wants to be my friend," he groans, "and I want to be by myself!' But he has friends over, and goes to visit others in their homes. _________________ NEVER EVER GIVE UP

The above image (the linked one) was only 115 K Bytes.
ImageShack believes it was shot with a PENTAX Optio M20 - a camera that says it can do 7.1 Mega Pixels, I.e. something like 3,000 by 2,300 ? (over 23 times as big).
I suppose it depends to some extent on what resolution you chose to take the pictures with, but if you say that you blew them up successfully, I doubt it was only 640x480, which is only 0.3072 Mega Pixels. (Except.... the camera does say that it does "Movies at 30 frames per second at 640 x 480 resolution", so if these were frames out of movies, maybe 640z480 is what you have, and blowing that up would be inappropriate.)
In terms of what you can upload to ImageShack, I uploaded this a while back:
which is still well under their limit of 1.5 megabytes.
There again... I may be talking rubbish. I don't do cameras. _________________ new, adj. Different colour from previous model.
Novinson's Revolutionary Discovery: When comes the revolution, things will be different -- not better, just different.
That is the camera it was shot w/ (Christmas gift from a customer who thinks that all parents of special needs children are "specifically chosen by God.") I personally just think we're people who love our children and "rise to the occasion."
Needless to say the only thing I can do with the camera is point and shoot,(tekkie inept at everything, not just computers) have never taken video or anything,( have a video camera for that)
Here's my friends/foes on the bike trails and this was just a baby, The Momma was somewhere nearby you can count on it. They can be VERY dangerous and unpredictable and they are EVERYWHERE here. Over 2000 moose live within the city limits full time.
Trying to upload a picture of my oldest daughter when she was modeling down in San Francisco right now also. It won't let me upload those pictures for some reason, the only thing I can think of that's different about them is they were scanned in instead of my plugging in the little memory thing off the camera. Maybe that's why it won't let me upload them. I don't know.
This is Lake Hood (busiest floatplane airport in the world) We ride around it a lot, it's about an 11 mile loop, mini-reika likes the planes. I'll get a picture of it in the summer that was back in the spring.
And for you Nannnarob here she is in her GIANT(6 foot diameter) foam-filled beanbag burrowing into her stuffed animals. Her favorite way to sleep, buried in them.
o.k. now to submit and see if it worked.
I bet you all wish I'd never figured out how to post pictures now huh? _________________ Did I dream this belief, or did I believe this dream?

Great pics Reika! Will have to explore Alaska firsthand when I retire. Good to see that while living there you actually experience it. I know several people who live within walking distance of the ocean and never swim in it or even look at it... ...live near parks and never visit them...

I call it McDonalds living. It is where you can pull up stakes and move where ever and plug right back into the culture, your starbucks, home depot, and Applebee's all waiting for you with your other favorites, bed bath and beyond, pier one and target store.
