Photos currently posted
Yesterday I uploaded some photo collections but didn’t post anything about them.
The Apt Series 1 – This was my first shoot with the camera. I pretty much took it out of the box and started shooting. The camera was on full auto for most of these pictures. I have a few more to upload to this section.
Car Show @ RIT – This was my first shoot on full manual. I was very happy with how it turned out.
Letchworth State Park – I’ve been to Letchworth State Park twice now, both times for Geocaching. The park is very scenic and I got some nice shots. I have more to upload from the second trip.
UE – MacFadden’s Castle on the Hill – This location was quite interesting. Multiple buildings, all in different states of disrepair. The main building was once a beautiful resort and is now on the verge of crumbling to dust.
Fact or fiction?
For the next few days I’ll be posting entries relating to this site, my thought processes, and my philosophy. That way future posts will make much more sense.
A major issue I have with blogs and society in general is the lack of real scientific sources. Someone will make a statement, such as “3% of adults have served time in prision.” The problem is that they can’t backup their fact or statistic with a valid source. They say something like “I heard it on the news” or “a friend told me.” Both of these sources are not valid! In order to be a responsible person you must state the true source.

Image Gallery!

The image gallery is up and running along with the random image function.
I hope to spend some time tomorrow on the first blog entry in a series about myself. I am planning on starting with my goals, then writing one entry a day about each goal until they have all been discussed. I will also discuss how my goals can relate to yours.

How this site will be run
Here’s a general outline of how this site will be run. I have decided that “Borderline Chaos” will be my default theme. I will add other themes as I find ones that are interesting. These themes will rotate on a regular basis, unless I decide that one theme is the best ever and doesn’t need to be changed.
Second, I will be adding a number of plugins ranging from minor to major. These will include rotating images, rotating quotes, a photo gallery, polls, and security updates.
Welcome to my blog!
I thought that it would be suitable to open my blog to the public today. My life took a 180 when I was arrested exactly one year ago (see “About Me” for more info).
What am I hoping to accomplish? Well, for starters, I hope to continue improving myself to be the best I can be. This blog will help me to that goal as a log and a motivator. I’d also like to help others improve their lives, using myself as an example.
This blog will be used to share my goals, my successes, and of course my failures. I also aim to help those seeking self-improvement achive their goals.
