Thanks to all who checked out my new article with
accompanying video. This was a first for this
website combining written content & media. Click

Today is the
winter solstice and the earliest winter since 1896. Days will gradually be getting longer
tomorrow, cuz today is the shortest day of the year.
Need to redesign my websites to more current
standards. Larger widescreen monitors were not
around when I began this site in late 1999. This
is a toughie, because of the many different settings
used by visitors and devices used to view.
Tablet and smart phone visitor usage is small now, but
growing.
12/20/12 Decided to debut my new video and text based article
today just in case the 21st (tomorrow) doesn't work
out OK for us. Sound track is spot on.

Been burning the candle at both ends trying to wrap up
my new article before this weekend. Then,
possibly debuting this piece on Sunday. What
this article covers to the best of my knowledge is
ground breaking. Focusing another aspect of
trolling with downriggers. What is this new
thing? ...guess you'll just have to wait and see.
Installed more RAM memory in 2 of my computers trying
to get a little more computing power to handle video
files. What I need is pricey workstation
superbox to cut and edit high-def videos effectively.

12/18/12 Among other things spent the best part of yesterday
...working on my new article, "Gettin' Down."
Still in need of minor rewrites, but it's mostly
done. This article will feature about 5 minute
video showcasing what's it like on the bottom of Lk.
MI.
My latest work will debut on, or before Christmas Eve
Day. Combining both written content and 5
minute video with narration is a 1st for yours truly.
Another 1st? ...this article done in the widescreen
format for nowadays monitors that are 16 x 9 instead
of the older style 4 x 3 aspect ratios.
The video in this article showed me how
woefully inadequate my computers are at editing
gargantuan 4 gig HD video files. 4 gigs is about
1 hour of raw HD footage.

Closed today out respect for the Connecticut massacre
victims.
I tried to write about it, but my words skills are
just not up to this task.
