Pictures!

A few days ago I finally bought a digital camera. Impulse decision, as I passed Radio Shack. Consumer Reports has had the Canon Powershot A5-- line as Best Buys, and the current $170 camera was the A550. Might have been smarter to get an older model on eBay; oh well. I unpacked it on the Megabus to Indy, and got the 2GB SmartDisk out of its blister pack while armed only with a key. Woot! Then I took lots of photos, mostly of clouds and a girl passenger. Later some photos of my apartment, and me, and some campus ones I haven't downloaded.

seemybooksHUGE is pretty big, but is detailed enough to let you read spine titles. Also, that's about a third of my books. Maybe fewer, considering the case packed with paperbacks.

busgirl_thumbs, at full size (not online), lets me read some writing on the back of her left hand. Looks like FRIDGE. No idea why. I suspect that's better than 20/20 vision, i.e. even if I wore my glasses I wouldn't have read that myself.

The credit card computers got alarmed at my card trying to buy $200 of electronics in Chicago. I'm pleased, frankly; it's good to know they can catch that.
