No work, but at least I got a ton of stuff done on the comic maker. Made a small window with the image controls in it, and hooked them all up. You can now rotate, make transparent, scale (both each side individually and proportionately) and I changed the horizontal/vertical control from being a checkbox to just being a button. I also implement layers, so you can now add, hide, remove and reorder layers and that all works. You could actually almost do a comic with it, if you didn't want any dialog. That's the next thing, the very tricky thing.
Yup, no calls today, what? But I have one scheduled for tomorrow at 10:00 and I'll drop off the laptop to the Hilton guy who works in the city.
Don't know why I didn't put this on before, but I hooked the dino app I made up to the site! You can find it here. I remembered it because I saw a comic relative to yesterday's post:

Then I hit the all button a couple of times and came up with some more funny ones:

Speaking of friendship, Sean's tomorrow! For the one shot game. Hope my Sith Lord can bring some good 'ol fighting to the party. And it will be a party, I made brownies!
And of course visiting grandma, because you can't have a moment of pleasure without an equal moment of pain. I learned that from ST:TNG.
Anyway, make your own dino comics, if you can hit a button, you can manage it!
No sun today, sigh.
I even checked my phone to make sure it was still on, this is the slowest it's been... in forever! What the heck, people?
Oh, I did look at the system the guy dropped off. First time plugging it in, worked great! No problem! I was like, "what's the issue?" Then the second time, after leaving it awhile, no can do! Huh? But... But... Piracy! Wait, no. It just worked! How come... arrg!
Hope Mizzy isn't home crying right now, but instead feeling confident about passing the Bar. She'll know in.. a couple months or something? They don't get the results out fast, let me tell you. I don't think, anyway.
Started reading "A Crafty Killing." Pretty gripping so far.
New MacBook Pros! Thunderbolt can operate at 10Gbps? Huh, I guess they don't need fiber after all. What, quad core processors, in a laptop? It wasn't that long ago we were cursing along with G4 laptops because G5s were too hot-n-heavy for desktop machines. Now we have 4 of those suckers plugged in? What's the world coming to? You pay for it though, I looked at similar systems from dell, and while they don't have the quad processors yet, they were still half the price. Hummmm.
