enjoy.

yep, the work weekend has now come to a close, and boy did I leave one hellofa mess at work, since I didnt do crap all day t'day I sort of just left it for the next guy who has come in to work t'nite. wink,wink. and so anyway, the good thing about just getting off from working this weekend is that now every one else is either nursing a hangover, getting ready for work t'morrow, or now dreading the monday morning blahhhs of going back to work, and so for me, I'm just getting ready to crank it up!!! so I'm going to fire up the juke box-crank it up loud-get sloppy-spill some drinks-and pee,pee,peeee...just alittle throw back from the sauce y'know. and so that any of you who should feel bad about working t'morrow...I'll be here thinking all about ya ok? tee,he,he. soooo more blogs later...now where did I put my headphones???

"Your Blog has been viewed: 901 times"...DANG!! I just missed it again. guess I wont be making any oh!! yes!yes!! calls t'nite huh.
boy I dam near overslept, well I actually did, as in jumping up throwing on some clothes and racing to get to work on time this morning. since I spent to much time writing a blog last night. to bad there arent any voice blogs available then I wouldnt spend so much time getting it all out of my head and putting it down in writing...just give it time dave, there will come the day. yea right! I can see it now...dear blog, I ummmmmm..... uhhhhh, I guess that today was a good day. ummmmmm..... and.......and oh yea I almost forgot, I ummmmm, was sort of thinking toda/mr. d_ashley your two minute blog is almost up, you now have ten seconds to finish/ummmmm, now ya'll just wait a cotton pickin minute here you assho/your time has now expired, thanks for your blog.
oh well, guess I'll just have to learn how to get it all down in writing huh. or did I say that already? he,he.

Richard Pryor died today...the one and only "king of comedy" and not that video of others who think that they are....

you wanna know what I like about the photo page? since I have it set on "all" the latest uploads? is that you'll never know whats going to POP UP! he,he. its never a dull moment.
and since I use an accelerator/ad blocker it does break down the photos until I "refresh" them, and so it does add a sort of mystiq[sp?] about it, as when Im looking at the "thumbnail" page...with all of these little pics that are sort of blurred or broken down so that all I see in most of them can be either shadowy, hazy, or left to the most extreme imagination.... which can make these photos very interesting indeed.
some can even be comical as well. he,he
like the photos of faces, you know the head shots...as I think Im looking at a possible GOOD LOOKING woman in her most blurred beauty, I will open the photo to enlarge with great anticipation of seeing exactly what she does look like, and as I "refresh" the picture of this perfect female specimen....all I see is one who looks like a train wreak from hell...
sort of makes me just want to save the blurred one as is onto my comp. and save for later imaginations.
and so after recovering I look at others...such as the ones that are produced with what at first looks like a photo that has been artistically "refined" if you were...as in the lighting has been modified to appear as in red or blue. so for the red ones, I open the photo gleefully with the idea that Im going to see a real work of art that has been given thought to detail and lighting that will trully enhance the scene...only to find a photo taken with the flash not going off like it should have, and only a 50 watt lightbulb lighting the area, and I cant exactly tell just what is it Im looking at, whether be it a man, woman, or what have you...Im not kidding here folks. so, beware of the red ones is all I can say.
and so the blue ones, ahhh yes Ive now learned what to expect out of these as all of them are the same. and these are the ones that have been taken...you guessed it...AT-THE-COMPUTER!!!
and I dont think that this needs any setting up here now do I?
yet these are the ones that have been given quite alot of thought to detail I guess for it does seem that it is quite the popular picture to take, as in...mouse in hand or hand on mouse but you cant see it, the ever so popular gaze...yep at the monitor screen and not the camera, and the other hand on some part of the body that this little itty bitty web cam failed to capture...now, is it just me? or is this not the most favorite picture of them all?,and that most are just dying to share with this kind of photo since its the most popular?...I guess, but I dont know...do you?
my look at the time...past my bedtime, as this is the weekend to work.
so, just to say that I am not anywhere close to the fine photos that are here, just that I see them aliiitttllleee diferently with my ad blocker...wink,wink.
remember, a picture has a thousand words...lest mine should reflect but one. bad.

this is for the maple leaf that I had found along my way...

----------------------------------------------------FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND---------------------------------------------------
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one belonged to him, and the other to the LORD.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him and he questioned the LORD about it. "LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me."

The LORD replied, "My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."

keep the faith my friend, and to the others who shall happen this way. dave.

I have some pics to share[look dat(v)way] though unfortunately I lost everything from a comp. crash and I had not backed up any at all. yet I did manage to salvage what was still in the camera as in the end of summer camps and hikes, but I had put on disk some cave exploring and a few others that I will share here.
sorry for the loss of sharpness in the photos. Dave

exploring a cave in Aragon, GA.
it was once used as a bar, but I dont know how long ago that was.
btw. the green thing off my hip with the strap hanging down is an army survival knife that I was fortunate enough to have bought from an ex tank commander, who was[and the knife] in the desert storm battle/s before he retired... cool huh.
