I was just messing around with the camera yesterday trying to kill the battery. I took this in my kitchen. It is strange how the window and light shows up but not the wall of much of the table.

FlickR Stuff

I have been trying to get more and more of my photos on Flickr placed on the Google map that is provided. So far, i have gotten most all of my St Thomas, Duke University, Epcot and Universal Studios placed. I also have various other photos on a map from different sets. Another example would be the Baltimore Harbor pics that i took with my LGVX 8600 Cam Phone. It is a neat option to be able to do that. Feel free to go and look at some of them.

Enjoy!

Sunday Morning Bike Ride...

Well folks we went to Pocahontas Park this morning at 7.45am and we hit the trails. We rode Lake View I,II,III. We have ridden I & II before but never III. It took off from Lake View II and it was really a GREAT trail to ride. It had many more turns and hills and was long. We decided to park inside the main park and not ride from Quala Lot as that would have added about 3+ miles to the ride. As it turned out, we rode about 14 miles this morning. I drank an entire pouch full of water! It was so hot and humid and there was not wind at all other then when we were riding our bikes. It was a fun ride but i have been really tired all day since i rode this morning.

Well, i need to get ready for sleep and work tomorrow...

How to use Firefox as Windows Explorer or File Manager?

Firefox
is the most commonly used browser among the bloggers and blog
followers. If you don’t like to clutter your windows experience by
opening lots of windows then you can use Firefox as Windows Explorer or
File Manager. As Firefox comes with tabbed interface, you can open all
the file locations in different tabs which otherwise would have come in
different windows.

So How to use Firefox as Windows Explorer or File Manager?

By default, Firefox can not be used as Windows Explorer. As Internet
Explorer can be used as Windows Explorer also, all that you have to do
is install the IE Tab plugin for your Firefox.

(Windows XP Theme used in the image: Micorsoft Zune XP Black Theme)

Now, open an IE Tab in the Firefox and use the file extension
“file:///” followed by local drive to use Firefox as Windows Explorer
(For example, “file:///D:/Lyte%20Byte”). These file locations can also
be bookmarked like a regular webpage, so the next time all you have to
do is just click a link in Firefox to open up a folder in your computer.

If you are looking for a Windows Explorer with a tabbed interface, you can also use IE7 in Windows Vista or XP. Also checkout “How to get a tabbed Windows Explorer or File Manager?”

Out Kitty in Color.

I was just messing around and shooting the cat in color using flash. She does not like the flasha nd you can tell in this photo! I took several of them like this and she looked the same...

My Lillies...

I took this set today. They are located off our back deck. There are about 100+ blooms. They have been opening all this week and will continue well into next week. I hope that you enjoy them! The third in the set was taken in Blacka nd White. I thought that the contrast was really nice between the blooms and the other things in the yard.

Sunday Morning Bike Ride

We are going to go and ride Lake View 1,2,3 tomorrow morning. If we rode from Quala Road lot, it will be 18 miles. I think that we are going to park in the main park and cut out about 3 miles of the ride.  I will give some updates tomorrow after the ride.

Paul Van Dyk - The Other Side

I am so hung up on this track. I love the Dip Dish Remix clocking in at over 9 minutes. It reminds me of The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot. PVD had a good style on this track with the male vocals.I am just sorry that i was not able to purchase all the mixes of this track.

Seal - Don't Cry [OFFICIAL video]

This was almost the highlight of the concert that i saw at the Woodlands in Houston summer 1994. He did an extreamly long rendition of this song. I wish that he would release that version!

Seal - Future Love Paradise [OFFICIAL video]

Another song that i loved of his. I bought this album when i was in college at SFA(Nacogdoches Texas)summer of 1991.

Seal - Crazy [OFFICIAL video]

I saw him at the Woodlands in Houston Texas. I was totally blown away by him. He had Phil Hartnoll from Orbital as his keyboard player and it was an amazing show. I would really love to see him in concert again. Summer 1994

Information Society - What's On Your Mind (Pure Energy)

This was the first concert that i ever went to in a club. Rhinestones in Beaumont Texas. I was 16 and i was wearing a Bomber Jacket that i purchased at a store at Parkdale Mall called Chess King...

Snow - Informer

WOW!! Club FX in Vinton Louisiana.

Snap! - The Power

I saw them at Rhinestones club in Beaumont Texas.

bg the prince of rap - this beat is hot

I always loved this track because of the KLF rift that is mixed into the song. The production was superb as was many tracks of this era.

Maxx - Getaway

Reminds me of the clubs i used to go to in South West Louisiana.

Mysterious Art - Requiem

1989 Folks. Very good tune.

Pool 1

Pool 1, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

While at the KOA, the girls went to the pool. It was freaking COLD!! I did not swim but they did. I was told that the pool was opened on the 22nd of May. It was too cold for me. The water was really clear and I thought that the photo was really neat with my shadow in the water. Notice the ripples in the water. This was taken on Saturday morning after it cleared off from the rain that we had the night before. It was about 76 degrees for the high temperature on that day. I took this in 16:9 Aspect Ratio.

With this grave stone being well over 120+ years, you can tell by the deterioration of the stone from being in the weather for so long. I did not know any of the people buried in the cemetery or what they died from, just that they ended up in this particular site.

The kitty is watching you...

This was a very hard photo to take. The cat was sitting on the bench with the sun and shadows on her from the big window. I took the photo in RAW format and then used Image Data Lightbox Sr to convert it to a Jpg. I did a bunch of RAW photos this evening. I am impressed how the cam dealt with the bright and dark contrast of the setting.

Another Kitty Photo...

I used the flash for this photo. She does not like it and omst of the time looks away when it does its metering function. She did not for this shot.

Looking into The Dead Zone..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I do not know how many graves that are located here but it is many of them. This is located about 3-4 miles from my house. I wanted to get some of the fence looking over to the graves. I used 16:9 aspect ratio to capture some of the vastness of this cemetery. I was not able to get them all in the photograph. The fence makes it look like it is forbidden to enter the area if you are a living person.
