WatchTom Goes To The Mayor - Powerpoint I love the show and this gives me a laugh as I’m about to go set up some AV for a group of 10 people. I hope their presentations are as riveting.

On Tumblelogs
I’ve been using Tumblr for about 6 months now. In that time, I have come to this decision: tumblelogs are the way forward. They are going to change the way we blog. (Important distinction: I am not equating Tumblr with tumblelogs here, it just happens to be the service I use to publish mine, and probably the most popular one.) At the moment, long-form blogs are the norm. And why not? There...
WatchBaby trained to give the “evil eye”
WatchHonesty time… One thing anyone who knows me well knows, is that I was a huge fan of The Cure in the late 80’s. I never really listen to them anymore, but their recordings are always present nonetheless. Here’s an honest audio post from me with no pretension - one from The Cure. I’ve always loved this song because it was their transition from the Pop/Hook...
RIP Heath
He was quickly becoming one of my favorite actors for his versatility. The glimpses of his Joker portrayal in previews easily rivaled any other actor to ever put on the purple suit. The Dark Knight is in post-production. I hope it does his career justice, because it’d be one hell of a film to sign off on. Another River Phoenix. Sucks. — danielha What the hell?!?! This is pretty recent...
Watch“Ha ha… your medium is dying!” Meant to post this a bit ago, but doing so now to test out edited hulu videos. *edit: Well, there isn’t fine enough control over beginning and end points and the ads are a little annoying, but the video quality is very nice.
New Theme!
Been absent for a bit, during which time I’ve changed my theme. This is a (severe) modification of the “Bus Full of Hippies” Wordpress theme which was ported to Tumblr (credits in the footer). I like the change from my old dark-ish theme - not too sure what to do with the background for now, so I just went with a picture I took outside of my house this winter. Haven’t...
I just got a new Blackberry Pearl through work,...
Unlawful Harassment Prevention Quiz (Mandatory)
I had to take an online course from a compliance testing service for my company regarding our harassment policy. I finally went and did it today - here are some of the amusing questions and images: ________________________________________ I know too many people like this unfortunately… ________________________________________ I now have this to display proudly on my wall!:
WatchBrilliant.
WatchTest… for an alternative audio player. Just copied the embed code from a song uploaded to imeem and pasted it into a Video post here. Someone please let me know if it doesn’t load or if it does anything stupid like make you create an account to hear more than 30 seconds or some such shit. Anything basically that takes away from it being an easy, functional way to share audio.
Kelis - Milkshake Hehe… I was going through...
Nevermind’s production hasn’t aged well. Any more compression on that sucker, and it would really sound like fucking Boston. I wish someone would give Steve Albini a long weekend with the original tapes. I’ll bet he could restore some dynamic range and, ironically, make the record sound even huger. It deserves a modern, Vig-less remix. (Man, imagine if Albini had recorded the original drums — the...
New Year's Panoramas From Around The World →
Pretty cool that I stood on the bridge where the London one was shot almost a year ago to today. Also good to see the Milwaukee one… I moved out of the city almost a year ago - I miss it on occasion, and the New Year’s parties were always great in the “Drunkest City In America”.
Watch Richard Prince on VBS.TV - interesting video.
Determined To Quit →
I need to quit smoking (and get over the whole psychology of it) this year… checking this out as a resource.
