It's a good thing you didn't say "Ditto"!

You're right, it was soulmodeler that did the first ditto, wasn't it?
EDIT: I can't find the start of the dito tree. The first thing I find is on page 19. I wonder where it went.
Good morning everyone, 29F here this morning in Cherry Valley, Ma, with winds blowing at 25 mph, giving us a wind chill temp of 17F (-11C). Skies are clear, but white out snow flurries are forecasted for later this afternoon.
The U.S. Weather prelim. data is out for 2006, the average temp was 55F, making this the warmest year ever since records were kept (1895), and 2.5F higher than 2005 average. Scientist now ALL agree, finally, that all this rise is NOT due to natural, cyclical events, but due in large part to humans. Are you surprised???
JEFF: THANK YOU, I was getting dizzy and almost fell out of the ditto tree!!
LEE: Congratulations on your promo to E7!!!!!!!

I find the shading off into deeper water the trickiest to get right…I’m enjoying seeing acres of wood and foam slowly disappearing in favour of more realistic scenes. What fascinates me is the way parts of scenes, while staying within the original design concept, sort of “evolve” into shapes and spaces that were never planned in detail, but just seem to “come together” to be better than my mental image when I planned the layout. I got my two bits of sea poured this afternoon; the cove has turned out to be quite a turbulent sea. All far too soft to fiddle with yet, but colouring the wavy plaster to show the colours of the sea floor is going to be interesting. I’ve never used poured plastic “water”, and don’t like the idea for moving bodies of water anyway. I go for plaster with some “motion” to it, paint that, and add gloss medium in several coats, working in texture. For this cove, there will be breakers, I’ve got some WS Flex Paste for that.

Thanks RT! JR: …What colours are you using now for the “urban river”? Any dark greens in there with the browns? I find the shading off into deeper water the trickiest to get right…I’m enjoying seeing acres of wood and foam slowly disappearing in favour of more realistic scenes. What fascinates me is the way parts of scenes, while staying within the original design concept, sort of “evolve” into shapes and spaces that were never planned in detail, but just seem to “come together” to be better than my mental image when I planned the layout. I got my two bits of sea poured this afternoon; the cove has turned out to be quite a turbulent sea. All far too soft to fiddle with yet, but colouring the wavy plaster to show the colours of the sea floor is going to be interesting. I’ve never used poured plastic “water”, and don’t like the idea for moving bodies of water anyway. I go for plaster with some “motion” to it, paint that, and add gloss medium in several coats, working in texture. For this cove, there will be breakers, I’ve got some WS Flex Paste for that. I’m toying with the idea of chucking one of those mini whisks into the power drill, and beating some air into the Flex Paste to get a foam to represent spray. Ryan: Good story about the school crossing guard. The fines for speeding in school zones in Nova Scotia have just doubled! Feels a bit like the later stages of a Monopoly game. (Not that I intend to make a habit of speeding in school zones, but our local one is sometimes difficult to remember as the schools to which it refers are off the road, and so not “there” as a reminder. No crossing guards anywhere either. Jeremy: Welcome back, January is a third over already, so you are getting your wish, I guess! I have a mortgage to renew before March 1st., so am not wanting the time to rush too much. Jeff: your Thank God there wasn't a derailment,…that would have been far worse.

Folks, if you can spare a thought for dial-up users, and take the time to adjust the size of your photo files before uploading to photobucket or whoever, it would be a great favour. Those sites now accommodate quite large files, on the assumption that any civilized user is on high speed by now. We less than civilized yobs who have Aliant as their isp have to suffer. Dick, it’s Aliant I’m screaming at. “Aliant, Here For You” NOT Rant over, I’d better finish off that pie and get out of here. Goodnight all, and God Bless.

Thanks RT! JR: …What colours are you using now for the “urban river”? Any dark greens in there with the browns? I find the shading off into deeper water the trickiest to get right…I’m enjoying seeing acres of wood and foam slowly disappearing in favour of more realistic scenes. What fascinates me is the way parts of scenes, while staying within the original design concept, sort of “evolve” into shapes and spaces that were never planned in detail, but just seem to “come together” to be better than my mental image when I planned the layout. I got my two bits of sea poured this afternoon; the cove has turned out to be quite a turbulent sea. All far too soft to fiddle with yet, but colouring the wavy plaster to show the colours of the sea floor is going to be interesting. I’ve never used poured plastic “water”, and don’t like the idea for moving bodies of water anyway. I go for plaster with some “motion” to it, paint that, and add gloss medium in several coats, working in texture. For this cove, there will be breakers, I’ve got some WS Flex Paste for that.

I find the shading off into deeper water the trickiest to get right…I’m enjoying seeing acres of wood and foam slowly disappearing in favour of more realistic scenes. What fascinates me is the way parts of scenes, while staying within the original design concept, sort of “evolve” into shapes and spaces that were never planned in detail, but just seem to “come together” to be better than my mental image when I planned the layout. I got my two bits of sea poured this afternoon; the cove has turned out to be quite a turbulent sea. All far too soft to fiddle with yet, but colouring the wavy plaster to show the colours of the sea floor is going to be interesting. I’ve never used poured plastic “water”, and don’t like the idea for moving bodies of water anyway. I go for plaster with some “motion” to it, paint that, and add gloss medium in several coats, working in texture. For this cove, there will be breakers, I’ve got some WS Flex Paste for that.

Good morning fellers!
Chloe set me up a bowl of Kashi Go-Lean Crunch and some fresh blueberries. Oh, and a tall cup of fresh JOE! Thanks!
You know, as I drive into work every morning the sunrise is always behind me, and as I get to the top of the first high hill out of the neighborhood I can see the first glimmer of light peaking over the horizon. The orange, ochre, and red hues are just spectacular. Sunrises and sunsets are one of my favorite photo opportunities too.
And now for today's weather forecast here in the Piedmont...
No snow here, but in the mountains around Asheville they got some last night I heard!
Der John, it is amazing how many people speed around school zones, like they are in complete oblivion of their surrounds.
Congratulations Lee!

I find the shading off into deeper water the trickiest to get right…I’m enjoying seeing acres of wood and foam slowly disappearing in favour of more realistic scenes.

I got my two bits of sea poured this afternoon; the cove has turned out to be quite a turbulent sea. All far too soft to fiddle with yet, but colouring the wavy plaster to show the colours of the sea floor is going to be interesting. I’ve never used poured plastic “water”, and don’t like the idea for moving bodies of water anyway. I go for plaster with some “motion” to it, paint that, and add gloss medium in several coats, working in texture. For this cove, there will be breakers, I’ve got some WS Flex Paste for that.

I find the shading off into deeper water the trickiest to get right…I’m enjoying seeing acres of wood and foam slowly disappearing in favour of more realistic scenes.

I got my two bits of sea poured this afternoon; the cove has turned out to be quite a turbulent sea. All far too soft to fiddle with yet, but colouring the wavy plaster to show the colours of the sea floor is going to be interesting. I’ve never used poured plastic “water”, and don’t like the idea for moving bodies of water anyway. I go for plaster with some “motion” to it, paint that, and add gloss medium in several coats, working in texture. For this cove, there will be breakers, I’ve got some WS Flex Paste for that. I’m toying with the idea of chucking one of those mini whisks into the power drill, and beating some air into the Flex Paste to get a foam to represent spray.
