Yes they are quality.

Recession Proof

I got a strange rash swimming in a bay in South Africa (I was bitten by something in the water, probably a jellyfish or something). Ended up seeing a dermatologist to check out what was going on. The fees that they charge are phenomenal!
I checked out the invoice and found the following:
$180 - 10 min consultation (there was one visit where I swear the doctor spoke for 30 seconds and then left)
$250 - removing a wart, probably 2 min work.
Total bill: $430

Lucky for me the medical insurance I have covers the costs, so I end up paying $30.

Still, I can understand why people would want to do medicine so much. If you can charge like that, and people are always willing to pay for their health, it's all good!

Kevvy, I hope you hit this kind of earnings! :)

Fixing Up The Archives

I was following the "Getting Things Done" method of archiving everything into one folder, and attempting to do that with my pictures proved slightly difficult, having about 6,000 photos. It was actually stuffing up my ability to backup that folder!

So now it's all fixed up, with specific years and actual dates to each event.
Tip of the day #1: I split the photos into years first.
Tip of the day #2: I write "05 - NYC" for all the pictures that I take that aren't part of a specific event for the month of May, "06 - NYC" for June etc. For events, I would write "06 26 to 06 29 - San Francisco", hence the folders will all show up in chronological order.

Going through old photos is always a very entertaining process. When did this idiotic thing with the ties at weddings start?
