What's the grooviest remedy or quasi-medical intervention that you've tried? Did it work?
Mine: holographic repatterning. I think it did work, although all rational parts of me smirk when I say that. Also, something called 'myofascial release.' That worked, too. But the 'soul reader?' Didn't do anything for me.
Why is crystal more desirable than glass?
What have you most recently concluded is a waste of time and eliminated from your life?
Assume technical competence. Does it matter if you like your dentist? Your hairstylist? Your mechanic?
By 'like', I mean, you get the feeling they're a good human being, and you think it would be pleasant to have a beer with them, someday, if such an occasion were to come to pass.
What is college for?
Another way to ask the question: by what measure should those connected with a college determine whether it is providing its students with a good experience?
Have you ever had, or seen, a male dental hygienist?
What's the most improbable, irrational, romantic risk you've taken?
How did it turn out? Do you regret it?
Last night at dinner someone brought up the Myers-Briggs test. I perked up and so did Neighbor. Our hostess pulled out her test results. 517 chimed in: "Do men find this stuff interesting, or is it only women?" The other two men at the table shrugged. Apparently not.
Men, women? Who cares about the Myers-Briggs test?
I think it's interesting. I am an ENFP. Way, way off the charts in the P zone. Borderline T/F.
What's the most insightful or helpful or practical or inspiring or sensible thing you've read or watched or heard on the topic of leadership? How about on making meaningful contributions?
I'm thinking about both leadership and authentic contribution. (Maybe I don't mean "both" because maybe they're facets of the same jewel, or sides of the same coin, or whatever.) I'm interested in what you have found wise or helpful on either subject.
I scanned in a bunch of photographs of Belle -- the old-fashioned kind, made with film, back in the day. I used Picasa to crop them (because the file made by the scanner includes all of the white space surrounding the photograph), but that only seems to work within Picasa. When I try to upload the cropped images to this weblog, for example, the white space that I tried to crop away is back.
If it's not obvious, I'm a complete ignoramus about photos. My goal is to end up with the digital equivalent of these 3 x 5" photographs. My tools are a Brother scanner with an 8 x 10" scanning surface, MS Paint, and Picasa. And perhaps some other tools and software that I am not aware I own.
Can anyone help?
[UPDATE: I discovered that I have Microsoft Photo Editor, which let me do some rudimentary cropping.]
