All I can say is "Crunch Week" at work is here... All three of my brain cells are working 24 hour shifts right now...
It's 1:36am Jul/27 right now, I haven't slept since 4:30am Jul/25...
Thank god for weekends... No new fractals for today, need to conserve brain power...

Is it normal for an Apophysis fractal to have a four day long render sequence? I guess there's nothing to do but wait...

Today is the first time I have watched the news in about ten months. I must say that I can not stand to watch what is shooting out of my television screen. I see death, murder, suicide...
One story that pissed me off beyond anything is how they had a story about this guy who just got out of jail, who may or may not be a repeat offender. They showed his house, repeated his address, showed his picture and hammered his name like a nail into wood. True, he was charged ten years ago for being a child molester, but it should be left up to the police to notify the surrounding populace, not the news to cover an extremely biased, paranoid eight minute section about this guy's address, house etc, so that any paranoid news-watching maniac can go and shoot everyone in that house, assuming that the person is not coming out of jail to start a new life.
The second thing that pisses me off is how they spent three minutes covering the fact that Paris Hilton got out of jail. Leave these people alone, no one really gives a shit if some rich girl that they've never met gets out of jail or not. How does Paris Hilton getting out of jail affect anyone???
Even the sports section had a touch of pessimism in it...
Thus begins another ten month period of loathing and avoiding the news... I don't honestly see how you people can watch this crap...

I just got back from a five day backpacking trip sponsored of the non-profit I work for (Thank you BFF).
I have plenty of new fractals on the way and will post them here in the near future.

I only now, for the first time in a week, have had any time to sit down and check messages, review new deviations, etc... Sorry to those of you who have left me a comment, favorite, watch, or note; and have not heard a response from me. I'm not trying to be rude, I just have not had any time for the last few days...
