Design and Creation Studio
I almost can’t apologize enough for not posting this sooner. I peruse Kickstarter often whenever I’m looking for the latest in technology. Sometimes I get lucky, but more often than not I find something after the campaign ended, with no update from the creator for years afterwords. This time, I had an idea, hoping to […]
Hooray for new equipment! We, I mean, I have acquired a Silhouette Cameo capable of vinyl cutting. My history of working with vinyl plotters has been reactivated, and viola! I present to you the very first Em2a Cartoon vinyl decal: For the record, I don’t remember tiny letters being that big of a pain in […]
Ok, when I sat down to write the last blog post, I fully intended to write down my steps and instructions. Then I took a nap and all motivation died (can you tell where? I bet you can if you go back 😉 ). So, since I got everything together, I’ve gone through about 3 […]
Can I just mention how addicting this hobby is? I’ve already started contemplating quitting my day job to start an aquaponics firm. Sylvia Bernstein has started an online Ning community for Aquaponics, where I’ve met and seen pictures of lots of people’s systems, at many different scales, and lots of people who have done this […]
I have always grown up having a garden. Living in Texas and the Midwest, these were easy to maintain, and I always managed to have bountiful crops and lots of herbs at my disposal. I tried to continue this tradition in Arizona, only to find that my green thumb turned a horrible shade of brown […]
So I realized that I forgot to give an update as to what happened with the pitiful external hard drive. “TS” took the HD to a local disk repair shop, who (after some confusion) opened up the case to discover that when the drive landed, it grounded out in 3 places. This means that there […]
On my About Me page, under my Disclaimer Stuff, you might have noticed that I reserve the right to “edit, delete, and block any and all inappropriate or unnecessary comments on this blog, as I see fit.” I generally reserve this right because there are those people out there who like nothing better than to […]
What do you do when your back up crashes? I’ll tell you what I did.. Freak out! Most of my crap stuff are backed up on DVDs and my .5 TB MyBook external. Had I known how crappy fragile the MyBook was, I would’ve jumped on my annual back up a lot sooner. Here’s the […]
I updated the favourites icon (FavIcon) on the EmaCartoon.com page last week. I told a friend subsequently thereafter, and was promptly thanked on behalf of all System Administrators. What? Why? How could a measly 16 pixel x 16 pixel image have such an impact to be thanked on behalf of all SysAdmins? So I did […]
I for one am not a big fan of politics, and as such, decided to keep most political comments to myself. This is mainly because I have strong opinions that don’t follow the main-stream of the blue-haired majority, and I don’t necessarily enjoy opening myself up to “trolling” and the like. However, there are a […]
