Anybody here know of a good skin ointment? Those pesky ankle chains are giving me raw skin again.


And you think you have enough time to apply the ointment between the whipping?  ;D

This is word of slaves anyway. If I pick direction and decide to just walk for the rest of my life , someone would stop me in a certain moment a forbid me to make one more step. If I would refuse , they would take that freedom they claim I own. And all I wanted is to walk .

Also... will the format change?

Think... beta... vcr... dvd... blueray...

Will our JPEGs have any value in 5 years?


My brother bought a 4 Track stereo system many years ago. It was so new that the store only had 1 tape available in the new format. So he bought the tape. A few weeks later the 8 track stereo system hit the market rendering the 4 track format forever obsolete. Last year I sold all my Laser video disks and player for a couple of bucks. The buyer had never heard of laser disks or the laser disk format.

I guess we need to expect obsolescence and hope the microsites have a way to upgrade to whatever format is the next jpg.
