Suddenly, the movies from my iPod do not want to be uploaded anywhere (except, curiously, for Facebook). YouTube doesn't like them, and I just joined Vimeo which also rejected them. Anyone know why this would be, and how to fix it?

I'm having another one of those days. Two in one week is just not fair! At least this time it's not grouchy customers. Though, come to think of it, I might prefer that to my morning: at least the grouchy customers eventually hang up or go away ( Read more... )

I walked down to the park today, as the snow stayed closer to the coast and we had just a flurry, followed by overcast skies.

This is not the first time this has happened, and with the same company, and I should totally know better, but I was busy today and it just got away from me. By the time I called the company, everyone in their art ( Read more... )

The office building next door (which you can see in this picture) has been tearing up all the shrubbery around it and its parking lot for a couple of weeks now, which has been very distressing, but today they *really* pissed me off: they cut down a beautiful maple tree that I've enjoyed for three years now. It turned lovely shades of yellow & ( Read more... )

Still @#$%&* here. Classifieds still not @#$%&* done. Leo forgot the @#$%&* legal ads.

Where's that beer?
