I have been holding off on the Windows Service Pack2 which could of allowed me to upgrade on several of my programs that I had once had. Just a few of those things that I had wanted to try out were the Windows Media Player 11, and the Internet Explorer 7. Another upgrade (since I like to dab into some graphic design) is the program Paint.Net which is a paint program with nice amount options to use to edit and creating pictures and graphics.

While I am at it, some other programs that I like that are not an upgrade, but just more free programs, are an Audio Screen Recorder where you can record anything on your computer screen. It’s pretty good for (just an example) you want to show a demonstration on how to do something on an internet page, etc.

Another one that I like is (which is also provided by wisdom-soft.com) is their Screen Capture Program. Capture an area of the screen, an active window, or the full screen itself.

Then there’s the Faststone Image Viewer where you crop, resize, edit, shardpen or blur, or add other effects to an image from your computer. It also has a draw board where you can add watermarks to images, decrease red eye, highlight, or add text to it as well.

Or if you don’t feel like adding more programs to your computer, there is actually an online website where you edit, crop, sharpen/blur images, etc, that I like and found one day and it will probably never leave my bookmarks is at SnipShot.com. I never heard of it or seen it used by anyone before until one day when I was answering questions for people on Yahoo! Answers. I tried it myself and I have had it bookmarked ever since.

Oh and if you are one of those people that like to add graphics to posts, comments, etc (example: MySpace.com), then Glitter Graphics is the place to go. They have tons of animated gifs, blinkies, backgrounds, dividers, avatars, dolls, myspace layouts, and much more!

Alright, I had just got myself carried away in here. lol! Eh, who knows? This might be useful to some of you…..

Thanks for your patience in me.

Hope everyone is well.

It does however, appear evident that there was a different side to Chris Benoit, that didn’t show up until it was too late for anyone to notice. Something that effected him so deeply, that he did not want to talk about it to anyone, and sadly, probably not even to his own family for that matter.

If you read many of the articles that some media has covered, they say that they believe that either ’this’ could of been the result of the actions that he took, or ‘that’ could of been what he consumed while commited these terrible acts.

I want to believe that he didn’t do any of this, but at the same time, he propbably did, and it is very sad that everyone in that house had to suffer.

It seems that everyone that knew Benoit, thought of Chris as a mentor, a soft spoken, kind individual, and of course, as a friend. Even the ones that were good friends with him, said that it didn’t appear there were any major troubles in the home and in the life of Chris Benoit.

I read stories about Benoit at his doctor’s office just prior to theses deaths. I heard stories that they found prescription drugs in the house, and I also read that they found an empty bottle of wine, and ten beer cans in the home as well. But where did they find the alcohol? Right by him? In the garbage can? Where? How old was the the left over contents of alcohol in those cans and the bottle?

The media and investigators were wondering why there was such a vast period of time (within that weekend) between the deaths of his wife and son before he decided to take his own life by hanging himself with one of his own weight machines.

So, if I were to take the media, the investigators, and other information from what has been reported online, this would be my theory…and just a theory mind you.

Benoit comes home after stating to his employer (WWE) that there was a “Family emergency”. He gets home, his son is sleeping. Nancy and Chris argue about something. When the fighting is over, and whatever they were fighting about wasn’t resolved, he consumed a great portion of alcohol and maybe one of his prescription drugs. Becomes angry because of the earlier arguement with his wife. With his judgement being impaired by a possible lethal combination of alcohol and prescription drugs, makes the terrible act. So, also assuming that after the crimes were commited and he sobers up (and this might be the reason of the time frame), realizes that he had done this, then panics, then  cries, and then grasps the realzation of what he has done, and finally, takes his own life as well.

As I said, this is just a speculation and nothing more. I think most that knew him by watching him on television (like I did) and knowing him personally, are eager to know what really happened. I know I am….

Family: Memorial for slain wrestler’s wife, son postponed

Why is it when someone gives you a compliment, you say thank you and feel good inside because you assume they are telling you the truth, but when giving yourself a compliment, you feel like you are lying to yourself?

Or when the world appears to be happy, but you want the rest of the world to feel your pain instead of feeling good just because of no reason at all.

Did you ever notice how important it is for people be on their cell phones driving down the street, but don’t feel the importance of safety while driving? They are too worried about that person they are talking to on the phone, that they fail to worry about their well being and others right in front of them.

I don’t know, just some “food for thought” in a manner of speaking…

“Joel was an important part of ABC News and we will miss him,” ABC News President David Westin said in a statement. “He was a brilliant reviewer and a great reporter. But much more, he was our dear friend and colleague. Our thoughts and prayers are with Joel’s family.”

Survivors to Siegel are his son, Dylan, and his wife, Ena Swansea.
