Flickr’s Odd Browser Color Inconsistency - Unvarnished, A Cap'n's log by Travis Smith

Travis Smith: my resume, bio and photos back to the main blog page

I’m lookin' at me photos on Flickr, and they’re not showin' up colored properly.  Th' problem seems t' occur only in Camino 1.5, whar th' images appear washed out and bluer.

However, in Safari on me Mac Book, th' images look as I intend them, th' same way they look in Photoshop and iPhoto.  This makes me sad, because it means that no matter how I correct them, someone’s goin' t' see them wrong.

Meanwhile, Susie and I had sundaes fer dessert and a nice roast chicken fer dinner, and watched three episodes o' Buffy tonight (I now be knowin' that Angel be a vampire, and there’s this lubber named Spike who just showed up and keel-hauled Th' Annoyin' One) and so it’s been a good day.

I invited about 15 people t' come fer Greek grub wi' Susie and I afore this week.  I figured that we’d get about half o' those t' come, and that we’d have a lovely Greek meal.  But me usual inability t' successfully plan events reared its ugly head.  Th' Greek galley be, when we arrived, closed fer no reason.  Like, no sign sayin' on vacation, hours sayin' they should be open, but just no lights on door locked.  So we had deent but not exceptional thai grub instead.

And o' th' people I invited, only three said aye.  Sure, they be me FAVORITE three, but still, th' lubber who lives 10 blocks away who couldn’t come, that perturbed me.  And th' two people who’ve always said they wanted t' come t' this galley we raved about but declined because o' somethin' I’ve seen them comely wench before, that bothered me too.

Enough so that I don’t really want t' organize somethin' again in th' near future.

In other what What News, I’m startin' t' get caught up on me backlog o' Flickr photos.  I hope ye enjoy them.

“Th' sad truth be that most evil be done by people who no nay ne'er make up their minds t' be good or evil.”

...who said it?

“Almost every American I be knowin' does trade large portions o' his life fer entertainment, hour by weeknight hour, binge by Saturday binge, Facebook check by Facebook check. I’m one o' them. In th' course o' writin' this I’ve watched all 13 episodes o' House o' Cards and who knows how many morrrr West Win' episodes, and I’ve spent any number o' blurred hours fallin' down internet rabbit holes. All instead o' readin', or writin', or workin', or spendin' real time wi' people I love.”

...who said it?

“Live a good life. If there be gods and they be just, then they will not care how devout ye have been, but will welcome ye based on th' virtues ye have lived by. If there be gods, but unjust, then ye should not want t' worship them. If there be no gods, then ye will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in th' memories o' yer loved ones.”

“Only th' person who has learned Continual Love comin' from a heart o' Gratitude/Worship can effectively deal wi' th' problem o' loneliness.”
