    ..oy, long day of politiking today.  Important stuff though. 

    Brain feels like a bowl of rolled oats that was made with twice the recommended amount of water. Planned to make a big pot of curry today, never got to it.  Moved that to tomorrow's agenda as it will be rainy and somewhat cold so don't want to go anywhere as my bones have been aching terribly for over a week now. Going to be wet and chilly for almost another week yet so more achy days on the way.

    Fraggin' spell check took several clicks to finally activate. Been doing that a lot lately.

    ...I have that and a number of Howie's other sets. Purchased them for scenes that take place on the grounds of the Grande Estate in my story, but had issues porting the characters in as Carrara doesn't recognise some of the morph and skin resoruce kits which I used.

    I know I've ported Daz setups and "scene subsets" to Carrara before (ver 6.1) with no toruble.  For some reason, 8.5 Pro seems not to like it.

     

    had some luck saving G2M as 'scene asset' in DS4.6, then loading it into carrara.  there's no way to swap the uvs inside carrara.  hoping someone workin on a plugin for that. cant use g3 characters. >.<  
    still trying to figure out how to get the hd character settings to port over.

    Look for a free one online.  I know there are plenty, I looked years ago.

    Also, go to the scanner's manufacturer's website, maybe they have some there for download.

    not tested yet, found a free 128barcode font.  but they need check-digits, binary, start/stop codes.  
    on the bright side, CODE128 is alpha/numeric

    ...looks like further up Bourbon, out of the main tourist area.

    Haven't been there since the late 70s.

    Not only do I miss Po Boys, but Crawdad Bakes, Takee Outeees (a chain of Chinese take out places that serve food on a skewer), Felix's Oyster Bar (no longer on Canal St.), "Having Fun" at Pat O'Brien's, and of course sitting at Cafe Du Monde drinking coffee and noshing on Beignets.  Used to ride the St Charles Streetcar every day to and from work and into town (lived up in the Garden District just off St Charles on Napoleon).

    ...attached is a pic of the neighbourhood and the apartment house I lived in as it looks today.  The building with the large garage door and sign on it nearest the camera used to be a firehouse when I lived there.  On the other side of the apartment building is a sports bar named Fat Harry's which was a hangout for the Tulane University crowd (we called it "Frat Harry's"). 

    Apparently there is now a bus line on Napoleon, there wasn't one when I lived there.

    St Charles Ave is by the traffic light

    I visited New Orleans once back in '82.  Spent one night in the French Quarter.  I remember some of it.  I do remember my other half and I waking up the next morning on a 2nd floor wrought iron balcony overlooking Bourbon St., naked.
