Jacqueline Potter Collection Photography

Many of you have known my love for photography in the last few years. And many of you have been my guinea pigs along the way! The reason for Jacqueline Potter "Collection" and not Jacqueline Potter say...jewellery, is because I wanted to leave room for Photography under an umbrella name. Now you know! :-) So without further ado, I invite you to my photography gallery at Jacqueline Potter Collection Photography website.

Should I submit this to Jay Leno?


Once again, I found this photo we took in Puerto Rico (we were there last July for our 1-year anniversary celebration) since I downloaded a bunch of old pictures from an old memory card. We thought it was hilarious at the time and took the photo with the thought we would submit it to the Jay Leno show. "Cars with Keys Only" - I didn't realise that cars are sold without keys these days??!! :-)

Would you believe Dylan let her out of the house dressed like this?




Yes, I am on a roll today....Well, I just managed to download pictures from an old memory card that I've been meaning to do for a while. And needless to say, we came across some really funny pictures (Kodak moments perhaps) that we just have to share with you.


Back to the picture....it was Sunday morning. I am usually extremely low maintenance but for some reason I was having such a hard time deciding what to wear - I guess that's what happened when I actually cared about what I wear (for a change!). So while I (we) knew I was looking a bit "ridiculous", we were running late, so out the door we went to church. It was such an odd and disastrous ensemble that when we got home later that afternoon, we had to take a picture of my outfit. Yes, I really did leave the house, went to church, walked all over Edinburgh, in that outfit. It's a miracle that I didn't stop traffic with the traffic-light-inspired wear!


Paying taxes owed with credit cards - have we reached a new "low"?

You tell me.....according to Yahoo Finance today (dated March 2, 2008), "The Internal Revenue Service even has a list of features and benefits of paying your taxes by credit card, which include convenience, safety, availability, security, quick confirmation and the chance to gain rewards." What?!?! In one simple gesture of pretense convenience, I think the government is fueling the spiraling economy of United States. One of my co-worker's famous allegory for mis-directed focus is "you are worrying about the finger nail when the whole arm is falling off??!!". In this case, are we applying a band-aid to a leaky dam?

Happy Lord's Day!
