Happy Thanksgiving! Take time to Give Thanks (thanksgiving) for everything you’ve been blessed to have. No matter how things are going for you, others have it worse. Case in point, be thankful for the soldiers fighting abroad. Whatever you may think about the war, those poor men and women cannot be with their families this Thanksgiving. Instead they are in some hell-hole fighting to help people who don’t even want them there.

It’s been really pushing my creative limits to try and come up with a different shot each day. I will continue taking one picture a day, but for the next few days, I really want to take the Holiday to spend time with my family instead of messing with photos on the computer, so I’ll upload them after the holiday. So look for them then.

I think it’s now pretty obviously true what people were suggesting in the month before elections. All of a sudden, gas, whose high prices had been a thorn in the side of the Republicans, took a dive in price. The truth (no conspiracy) is that Republicans are in bed with Big Oil. Bush and others own oil companies or are on their boards and stuff like that. The conspiracy was that the gas companies were helping them out by lowering prices. (They could afford to with the huge profits they were raking in that summer)

Looks like flickr’s been listening to me. I kept asking them for ability to search by camera. Others kept rebuffing me, but I guess others shared my passion as well, because they now have Camera Finder. As you can see on the current graph of most popular camera, my camera, the Canon Digital Rebel XT, is the most popular. This is no surprise to me as I see it EVERYWHERE I go! In fact, checking out the Canon stats page I found that, as far as they can tell, there are 8 MILLION photos taken with that Camera and 2300 daily users on average! All I need now (and it may be there, waiting for me to discover it) is to be able to search my own photos by camera instead of EVERYONE’S.
