    Thanks for the input Jim and all. This is getting expensive. I bumped the memory up to 12GB Trichannel DDR3 SDRAM at 1066hz-6 dimm with the 23 inch monitor and photoshop elements standard. I have not hit the order button yet. You probably know the feeling....hand over the button and saying...

    Tuesday with Alfie

    Congratulations on the new job Al. Whip, that last photo is really intriguing. It reminds me of what we might see in Jurassic times. That plant in the photo that only looks as large as the tree in the background appears to be Pennsylvania smartweed, commonly only about 6 dm tall at most. You...

    Not the Pines, but fun nonetheless...

    Old Kaintuck. The dark and bloody ground. I'd like to see it someday.

    If they are as wrong as this, I'll definitely stop using the National Weather Service site.

    Snow ??

    I don't want to dampen any excitement you guys have, but I don't get the disparity between weather reports. I mean, its not even close. http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?site=phi&CiTemplate=1&FcstType=text&MapType=0&MapType=3&site=phi&CiTemplate=1&map.x=243&map.y=137

    Flood paddle

    I looked on the arial from 1930. They had literally stripped the lower part of the Oswego of trees (cedars and pines apparently)...which would have contributed to massive runoff.

    Flood paddle

    Hey Gabe, break out that canoe, waters 10 feet high and rising! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:OswegoRiverNewJersey1939.PNG PS: some research: August 20, 1939 - Tuckerton receives 14.8 inches (376 mm) of precipitation, which is the wettest known tropical cyclone in the state. [20]...

    Computer

    Thanks for the advice and offer to help. The one thing I am unsure of is the monitor. How big is too big? After awhile, does your eye get tired of trying to look at too much. Also, if this is what Dell is offering to come with it, maybe I should look into a monitor with better quality? PS: my...

    Apple Pie Hill Tower Smashed Again

    Settle down Mike....easy. I was reading this thread. It was an honest mistake. When you said that..."And technically I wasn't using a # to defraud someone, just protecting my identity".....what you really meant was...."I wasn't thinking right at the time...I was blinded by the urge to protect...

    And so it begins....

    If that is what they are doing, then I agree it is wrong.

    Flood paddle

    I went down to the river after the falls. Awesome power, wasn't it? I just knew if anybody fell off that boardwalk they'd be dead, never mind scared.

    Boy, you sure do take advantage Al! Guy, it looks like at 10:30 in the eye, I could reach in and pull a flap of the sclera surface back. I hope that is not what happened to you, a slice, but I think it has.

    ætna furnace, Tuckahoe

    John, It seems to me, based upon what I have read, that what you have there is a result of either too much flux (thereby lowering the slag to a melting point where it solidified), or the guy at the bellows took a nap (or got drunk) and allowed the fire to cool too much, also lowering the...

    Stone Searching

    I'm sorry to see you had an injury Guy! Hope it turns out to be a temporary problem. I remember on Scott's hike I jumped that canal and a stick on a branch on the other side went into my eye. It bothered me for 24 hours, then went quickly away.

    :) I have walked naked down a sand road in the pines before. It was absolutely liberating. How should I describe it....I know......FREE!
