Rich People Make Me Sick.

 Must really be nice to buy or get whatever you want. The super rich is even more disgusting, they have how many expensive cars, how many expensive homes, etc., etc.? Do they really deserve it? Probably not. Why would you pay football players and or actors millions of dollars? The fact is, your paying them when you go see a game or a movie. Why do you think tickets are so high? And... just like the record company, who gets most of the money, the company, not the artist.

Probably most of these rice people are crooks of some kind, just got lucky, or it was handed down to them like with Trump.

Remember the saying when you was little..... "you can be what ever you want to be when you grow up", now that's a big crock of shit! When I was in school all I remember was your basic schooling, I never heard other things you might be able to learn in school, if there was actually anything.

School pretty much sucked if you ask me, I learned more out of school then in school. But we all can't all grow up to be what we want to be. The reason for this is because we all don't and or can't learn like others. Take for instance learning to play guitar or doing math problems. For some people one or the other seems to come naturally, while other might get it but have to struggle at it but do eventually get it, yet others seem to never get it.

Yet some of these super smart people like say a doctor, lawyer rocket scientist, or brain surgeon can't even change a flat tire. So what's wrong with that picture?

There are a few things I'd like to do better, have a bigger vocabulary, and be able to draw. It seems a lot of people in prison have both, why is that? I know people use words at times which I know what they mean, yet I'd never think of using a big word like that, would never come to mind.

I remember when I was in school I wanted to take auto mechanics being I worked around cars at home a lot. But that class was full so they offered me autobody. I think I went one day knowing I didn't want it and also I think working with a cars body you have to be somewhat artistic to shape fenders and or other parts of the car's body so it would look right. As for me, I have enough drawing "stick men"!

Anyways.... don't believe you can be anything you want to be when you grow up. Some people will, but I think most people who want to be something and try being what they want soon find out it's harder then they thought and don't understand things so they drop out. 

It's one thing when things seem to come natural to you, but when you have to work and work at things to try and understand it and you still don't get it.... well, maybe you should move on to something else.

I kind of wonder if collage is like school? They end up teaching you things that you never use in real life.

Printing Pictures

 Let's face it, printing pictures can be expensive and time consuming. There is also the fact some printers print better then others. I guess it might come down to how much money you want to spend on a printer, but buying a better printer doesn't always guarantee good picture prints. Then of course printing pictures gets expensive buying ink all the time. I just checked at staples and for high yield black, and the other three colors, it cost $78.99! Just the other week I bought my first refurbished cartridge's (same as Staples)  for around $26.00! That's a big savings and so far they seem to work fine.

The printer I have is an Epson Workforce Pro WF-3733. The printer does a pretty good job and it's more printer then I need as to say it does more then I need. The only reason I bout it was because at the time it had a good price on it. As for printing, it prints pretty fast and pictures isn't to bad even though it's not considered a "photo" printer, but again, the ink cost is high.


Of course you can always go to somewhere like Walmart to print your pictures. A 4x6 will cost you like $0.09 per picture, go to a 5x7 and the price jumps to $0.58 a picture. I never printed pictures at a store though I must admit.

There is a better way to print pictures rathen then using your printer and that by using a Sublimation printer. So, if ink for my regular printer cost $78.99 four all four colors, with the sublimation printer I can print 750 4x6 pictures for $124.00!

Below is the sublimation printer I use.


I had this Sublimation printer now for over a year and still haven't went through a roll of paper. If I go with 5x7 prints I can get 400 prints with a single roll and and with 6x8 I can get 375 pictures per roll.

As for sublimation printer's printers there are a lot of them out on the market and it depends on how much you want to spend on one, if you want one. Of course I don't print a lot of pictures, but when I do print pictures I don't want to have to print a picture a number of times to get a good print.

I did notice one thing about this printer, well it's not the printer but the software you use. Any software you use should be able to send it to this printer, but the one software I used when I first got the printer, it would print the picture fine but after it printed the picture it would spit out a plank "sheet" after the print. That means every blank it would spit out after the printed picture is a picture print you would lose.

I then changed software (just for printing) and the it quit spitting out the "blank" sheet after printing the picture.
