It looks like this is an annual thing for me, so I’ll give it another go. Angela and I are ever-so-slowly making the shift (back) towards using Apple hardware and software in our lives, so I do have quite a bit of interest in MacWorld each year. Plus, it’s nice to watch the stock jump!… Continue reading MacWorld SF – 2007 Edition
Following Scientists
Sometimes I feel genuinely guilty that the part of a sermon that sticks with me the most is one that I simply find incompatible with what I feel to be right (and often, not even the gist of the sermon, as you’ll see here). Now, I am probably towards the opposite end of the Presbyterian… Continue reading Following Scientists
What Facial Expressions to Use When You’re Expecting
So Angela and I have been reading some different books on pregnancy. Okay, she’s been doing most of the reading so far as she has about five different books. I bought one, titled Pregnancy Sucks for Men: What to Do When Your Miracle Makes You BOTH Miserable, which is a fairly entertaining read as well… Continue reading What Facial Expressions to Use When You’re Expecting
Larry Lessig Presentation on Free Culture
If you have a free hour and would like to learn about free culture, then I highly recommend you watch this presentation by law professor Larry Lessig. The tools for free culture, particularly copyleft and Creative Commons, are expanding and Lessig points out how this applies to all creative materials beyond just software. I strongly… Continue reading Larry Lessig Presentation on Free Culture
Photography of Israeli Defense Force Women Soldiers
I’m not an old man, by really anyone’s account. Even Timothy Leary, were he still alive, could technically trust me as I’m not yet over thirty. However, the one thing that makes me feel my age perhaps more than any thing else is to see photos of soldiers serving at war. They go to join… Continue reading Photography of Israeli Defense Force Women Soldiers
Stop Motion Action Film on YouTube
Most of YouTube is crap (then again, 90% of everything is crap). However, it is gems like this live-action, stop-motion film “Tony vs. Paul” that make it the future of video and entertainment. I think some Hollywood effects studios could learn some tricks from these guys. Some of it’s silly, but it’s an entertaining five… Continue reading Stop Motion Action Film on YouTube
Driving In My Car
So, the other day I was really feeling bothered by the fact that I wanted to write on the blog, but hadn’t had the time to do so. I noticed that I had yet to take the DV camera out of my bag (or man-purse, as Angela calls it) before going back to work. I… Continue reading Driving In My Car
End of Year Gadget Cleaning
Well, part of all that I’m trying to do this weekend between our stinky fridge and New Year’s celebrations is put up a bunch of old junk on eBay so that I may get some new computer money1. Well, it turns out we have quite a bit of stuff to sell. No, none of it… Continue reading End of Year Gadget Cleaning
You Stink
I’ve got loads to put up online and so I don’t want anyone to think that I’m doing nothing. However, as I’m sitting here transferring photos and video to the PC I’m drinking a glass of milk. That’s no so weird except for the fact it stinks. What’s more upsetting is this milk has been… Continue reading You Stink
