The Very Public and Unflattering Picture




We've all had it, that all too public and very unflattering picture posted somewhere. When you're least expecting it, the person with the eye for capturing the most terrible pictures, snaps away. Days later (or weeks as the case may be) the picture is there in the limelight for everyone to see, forever.

Recently this picture of me showed up. I was displeased to see a very unpleasing picture of myself in a recent photo stream. At first I was very upset and walked around venting. But after a few minutes I decided that in a few months people would start
forgetting about it. Even though I know I'll still be reminded about it, that I should not
waste perfectly good time that I could spend having fun. Anyways......

Sincerely,
J

Cheap Annoyances and Solutions


I found myself punching out the 3-D glasses in the current TV Guide for the Best of Both Worlds video. Of course, I was hopeful that my glasses from the movie theater would work, because they were obviously much better quality. Just incase though, these were my back up pair. of course we all know hundreds of thousands of these were made, so what is the probibility that thaey were going to be great quality.
So the night of the movie I invited my friend (D) over and and we both had our movie glasses, and TV Guide glasses, praying that the Theater ones would work. Well you know how it goes, we tried on the Theater glasses, of course no different from regular vision. So, we put on our TV Guide glasses despite the fact that they were completely broken. We held them up to our faces for about five minutes, at which point we had given up.
But after about two minutes of disappointment, we decided to make a solution. We took the middle pieces of our glasses, held them up to the good glasses, put them both on together, and voila! We used our problem (broken paper glasses) and combined them with the good pair and we had glasses that stayed on and worked just as good as in the theater.
So the next time your watching a 3D movie at hove with your paper 3D glasses, grab a pair of plastic sunglasses and combine the two. Enjoy!
