    PFF, yeah right.

    My wife is out of town, it's 3pm, and all I've done today is make coffee and eat a brownie (no not THAT kind of brownie), and listen to music.

    Should probably get in the shower at some point.

    So --- as y'all know, I don't get out much :|

    As evidence thereof -- probably everyone on Earth today was aware of this (except me). I guess there's this thing in Adobe Photoshop called content-aware (re)scaling. I am not even 100% sure what it's for. It seems to be algorithms to take an image in one format (aspect ratio) and convert it to another with minimal/acceptable distortion. Sort of like "pan and scan" in the old days of rescaling a movie film image to fit old-school broadcast TV on CRTs :p

    At any rate, it appears that the cadre of coders who developed this "feature" for
    Adobe may not be cat lovers. (which seems inconceivable, but I offer some empirical evidence below)

    Agreed! Has been unseasonably cold here in Nebr. Finally broke 60 today though.

    As long as you got your potatoes planted by Good Friday, you should be good to go! :)
