The verbiage’s of IRONMONKUS

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool.

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.

To reach out for another is to risk involvement.

To expose feelings is to risk expressing one’s true self.

To place your ideas, your dreams, before the crowd is to risk loss.

To love is to risk not being loved in return.

To live is to risk dying.

To hope is to risk despair.

To try at all is to risk failure.

But risk we must, because the great hazard in life is to risk nothing.

The man, the woman, who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing.

So, I went for a hike up Bells Canyon and took a few pictures.  They might look better if I actually took the time to do a little photo editing, but for stock shots, they are not too bad…

I’m also thinking about changing my webpage a little bit… make it cool maybe, maybe a little simpler, maybe change the way the photo album works… I don’t know, we’ll see.

The photos are at the bottom of the page… I don’t like how this photo album messes up the page and doesn’t have one page for each section of photos, so I’m going to be looking at changing the site so my pictures are more easily viewed.

Here is a direct link to the new photos called, “Bells Canyon (Winter)”… wait for it… wait for it… ok, go back and click on, “Here” at the beginning of the sentence… lol

EDIT:\\\So, I messed with the photo album action and I think it looks a little better than it did before.  You just have to hit the back button on the browser to go back to the main photo menu.  I also changed it so that all of the pictures would show on a single page when you click on an album, because when you clicked on a picture, it only let you cycle through that pages pictures… What does that mean!?  It just means, that you could have missed the entire second or third page of pictures!!!

I’ve always been thinking about changing the theme of this page, because I wouldn’t mind having a three column site so I can put up some funky widgets, but I have yet to find a theme that, “I” find to be cooler than this one.  hmm ///

Ok, so what is going on here!  I’ve written two posts in the last two days… WOW! Or, has it been two days?  Ooooooweeeaaahaahhh!  Yeah, whatever, time never stands still for me.

So, I’ve been behind the times in trying to keep up with everything and in-turn really not doing anything… lol

This latest topic is on the smoothness that is the book, “ENDER’S GAME!” by Orson Scott Card.  Though, this topic is not just about the book.  In fact, it’s not about the book!  lol…  This post is about the COMIC BOOK!  That’s right, the comic book.  Say it with me, T-H-E  C-O-M-I-C  B-O-O-K.  Now, I haven’t read this comic book, but I’m going to be cruising to the store sometime this week and purchase this bad boy.  Here is the website if you wish to peruse… That’s right, go back to the start of the sentence and click on the word, “Here (not this Here, the one at the starting of the sentence).” lol

I love the book and it’s one of my favorites.  It takes a lot to make anything my favorite, because I am so picky and my body doesn’t like to sit around for too long and my eyes tend to wander, a lot!  I have a hard time reading and this is only the second book that I have been able to finish; the first being, “Harry and the Hendersons.”  This is why I am so excited to get this comic book.  I’m hoping that it will be like the book and grab me, hold my attention span and take me to a happy place!  lol

I will let you know how it goes… Until then, take care!
