I consider it a personal failing of the "smarmiest pirate I know":http://peglegpete.livejournal.com/ that I have not been reminded of "Talk Like a Pirate Day":http://www.talklikeapirate.com/piratehome.html before now. So, since this bilge rat is not performing his duties, I'll do it for him.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, September 19th, is "Talk Like a Pirate Day":http://www.talklikeapirate.com/piratehome.html. In honor of such a [...]

Arrrrr, prepare to be boarded.
shock and surprise
Apparently, I'm too busy and important to provide you with daily updates over the weekend, so I guess I'll just have to recap all of that for you now. [...]
Exposure Dallas: THANK YOU!
To those of you who attended my showing last night with "Exposure Dallas":http://exposuredallas.com/, *THANK YOU* from the bottom of my heart. Your support and encouragement is unmatched and means more to me than I have words to offer.
If you missed the show, or would just like see the photographs that were shown again, or if [...]
ENTHUSIASM
I had hoped that by making a posting here about the unknown enthusiast that the culprit would show his face. And so he did. It turns out he is frequent reader of this site who decided to buy "portrait of a cow under a rising sun":http://djamesphoto.com/arranginglight/2006/08/30/portrait-of-a-cow-under-a-rising-sun/ as a birthday present for his father. [...]
I like your enthusiasm
One of you, though I'm not sure who yet, was very enthused by the announcement of my "new photoblog":http://djamesphoto.com/arranginglight/. So enthused that you ordered a very large print under the unintentional "at cost" pricing that it defaulted to (thanks for that, ExposureManager). So, thank you, I think. Now, who are you? [...]
the exhibit: this is what I do
The exhibit is tomorrow. I'm not sure how many of you are planning on coming. If you are, I'm very grateful for your support. On one hand, I want to be really excited about this. But, on the other hand I'm a bit reserved. [...]
Myschievia Portrait Studio?
When I find myself so strongly aligned with and interested in something, I generally want to jump right in without reservation and Myschievia is no exception. However, with such short notice and an already hectic schedule, I'm a bit short on ideas. But, I think this is a really good one. [...]
yes, I know the ways and means
Despite the fact that I worked from home yesterday, started at 6am, and only took a 30 minute lunch, I ended up working straight through until 5pm. There was just too much work to do. So, I didn't get any of the "Photoblog":http://djamesphoto.com/arranginglight/ changes done, nor did I get a chance to work on the "Website":http://djamesphoto.com/. Thanks for taking a look at it, though, and offering your opinion. It's nice to have feedback on stuff like this. Hopefully, I'll have some time tonight and tomorrow to get it in shape. [...]
cryptic answers: answer set #1
Here are the first set of answers to the "Cryptic Answers":http://revjim.net/2006/09/13/meme-cryptic-answers/ meme. [...]
love vs. ego
As much as I didn't want to, I decided I would just eat the $20 that I put into "the mis-prints":http://revjim.net/2006/09/13/making-a-bad-day-worse/. So, I reordered them yesterday morning and had Jess watch me do it to ensure I didn't press any of the wrong buttons and to make sure that I pushed all of the right buttons. We both felt confident that I did it right, so I had no reason to believe I wouldn't get prints of the sane quality I'm used to seeing from CostCo. [...]
