Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
a) What do people want for Christmas this year?
For the universe to give the people I care about a frickin' break already. Failing that, I would really, really like a sizeable gift card to one of my favorite clothing stores. I'm in desperate need of pants that fit.
b) What is your favorite present that you bought for someone else?
The Old Farmer's Almanac Gardener's Calendar I got for my stepmother. It has gorgeous illustrations, and all sorts of neat tidbits of information. I seriously considered keeping it and getting her something else. I've decided instead to simply order another copy for myself.

Anybody have a PDF to JPG converter handy?
I need to convert a few files. (About 7.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How many pages? Not that I have a converter -- I can't remember ever having seen such a thing. Just that if it's not too many, printing your screen (again and again) might be the simplest way out.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Clearly the ghost of the shrimp is fucking with you. Impressive shrimp.This is war. Next to fall will be three pounds of his larger brethren, marinated, grilled and served on paparadelle alfredo. A dash of vengence shall be added too for spilling my blood.

So if I do the print screen copy thing off the PDF I can paste it in an art format?

Kat, did UPS ever stop being irritating?
Nope. Sadly.

Yup. You'll need to go via a graphics program to trim out the other crap, but once you've print-screened, you are a heartbeat away from JPG, GIF, BMP, whatever's your poison.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I think everybody should just hunker down and avoid contact with people today. It's not a good day.
God, yes. It took hours for us to get our asses outside to do food shopping for the weekend, and we jsut took it slow and calm-like. I feel like a zombie or something, so zoned out to avoid all the badness.
a) What do people want for Christmas this year?
Man, I'd just love to get Season 1 Amazing RAce DVDs. It's one of those things I want really badly but will never get for myself. I'd also love some slippers from Lands End.
b) What is your favorite present that you bought for someone else?
I think it is a toss up between the Watcher's Guide and Monster Book that we got for Tom's nephew in Ireland who is just starting to get into Buffy, and the donation made in my grandmother's name to the convent that my great aunt was a part of before her death.
