By jfg69 | May 29, 2008
Whats the cost of fuel where you live? Here on Long Island, in New York I’m seeing around 4.10 per gallon average for unleaded regular at “bargain” stations like Shamrock and US Gas…

Little Johnny
By jfg69 | February 9, 2008
Little Johnny and his grandfather are sitting on the front porch together, when grandpa pulled a beer out of the cooler.
Johnny asked, “Grandpa, can I have a beer?
Grandpa replied “Can your pecker touch you’re ass?
Johnny answered, “No Grandpa, It’s just a little pecker!”
Grandpa said, Then you’re not man enough to have a beer.
A little later Grandpa lit up a cigar.
Johnny asked, “Grandpa, can I have a cigar?”
Once again, Grandpa asked, “Can your pecker touch you’re ass?”
Johnny answered “no,” again.
Grandpa said, “Then your not man enough to have a cigar.”
A little later, Johnny came out of the house with some cookies and milk.
Grandpa asked, “Can I have a cookie?”
The boy asked, “Can your pecker touch you’re ass?”
Grandpa replied, Hell yeah, my pecker can touch my ass!”
Little Johnny replied, Then go fuck yourself! Grandma made these for me.”

New logo image
By jfg69 | January 31, 2008
A quick job in Photoshop, I whipped up a new logo image. Hopefully, this should be temporary till I come up with a better idea, but its so much better than a “Your Logo” logo!
Took the original image, selected a portion of the edge of the image, Ctrl-T to transform it and pull it across the original text. This preserved the fade of the image background.
Layer styles: Add stroke, bevel/emboss and a drop shadow- and we now have a new logo, quick and easy!

Afternoon radio
By jfg69 | January 31, 2008
The last couple of days I have been listening to Dennis Miller on WOR Radio 710 here in the New York area. I’m starting to enjoy listening to Dennis and his commentary more and more.
I think maybe I’ll go watch him and David Spade in “Joe Dirt” again. What ever happened to “Joe Dirt 2?”

Ferris Wheel
By jfg69 | January 31, 2008
Photoshop:
Here is a shot taken a few years ago (2002?) at the Orange County Fair in Middletown, NY. It was getting dark and the ferris wheel looked real nice with all the colored lights spinning. This was taken with the Canon S40 p&s. Wish I had my K10D back then!
As luck would have it, I mislabeled the photo as taken in Wildwood, NJ 2002 while post processing. Unfortunately, I have no idea where the original or the PSD is to correct it!
I’m pretty sure I was using PS7 at the time this was done. Added few minor tweaks, dont recall exactly what- but hue and saturation come to mind.
