First, Fed-ex claimed they couldn't find my house, so they sent it back to Adobe. After several hours on the phone with Adobe we finally ironed out the situation, or so I thought. On Monday, four weeks after I had paid for Lightroom, I received a package in the mail from Adobe. I eagerly opened it, only to discover it was a training DVD for Photoshop. As you can imagine, I was quite irate.</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">I am now waiting on them to send the correct program which I paid for.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">On the bright side, this week I designed a logo for myself: </span></span></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joelrichardson/3974979149/" title="A logo by a piece of π, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2496/3974979149_019f763878.jpg" width="500" height="500" alt="A logo" style="border:none;" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Also this week, a friend of mine, Sydni Bibb and I went and took some photos together.

If you have to get a loan from the bank to pay for a steak, a restaurant with prices like these will result in pain and discomfort. And you will be in debt for the rest of your physical life. And you will be forced to live on the streets. And you will take up quilting. And your teeth will rot and fall out of your mouth. And your wife will leave you. With the kids. And your Xbox. And your cat. Well, I guess that's a plus.<br />You will hate yourself, and everyone. You will loathe people, animals, the earth and all manmade objects. Life will be terrible. You will long for the comfort of a grave. Death will be your only escape from the madness, unless of course you believe that suicide is a sin, therefore leaving you on this sickening place called Earth until the fury of God in Righteous Anger takes your life by means earthquake and flood. Well, I guess that's a bit of a stretch, but you get the point.<br />Another object we must consider is SANITY/QUALITY. Here is a good example: once, a friend of mine, and myself were looking for a place to eat. We wanted somewhere that could prepare the food quickly, so we stopped inside a McDonalds. Granny the cashier either had a rare lung disease, or was simply trying to cough something up out of her throat. It was quite a repulsive sight. We very purposefully spun around and made our way towards Arby's.<br />The next and arguably last factor is CONVENIENCE. There may be a restaurant with all of the previously mentioned qualities, but if it is located in Seattle, and you are in New York, it is no good. </span></span></span></div><div
