Cool Tech Toy

Monday, May 24th, 2010

In time, I’d like to have a plethora of nifty gadgets around the house. I thought this was a pretty nifty idea. Sure it’s not altogether functional, but hey, it seems like it’d be a great conversational piece!

Things, But Very Slowly

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

I think it would be a blast to take the time and have the resources to explore the world we live in with great detail to discover those things that previously go unseen. Take, for instance, the Brainiac’s, “Things but very slowly” collection. Here’s a compilation of the types of things that would be fun [...]

Inspired Bicycles

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

Just a quick post about a fella and his bike. I came across this video while perusing a photographer’s newsletter, and he had the fortune to work with the guy on the bike (and his sponsor). First of all, I think it’s pretty cool that photography can carry me into different avenues of talent that [...]

TED Talks

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

When I think about what “exciting” things I’d like to do in my life, I think of movements that I’d like to be a part of, even if only peripherally. TED Talks are just one of these venues. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design, but since it’s inception seems to have ballooned to all manners [...]

Making an Impact

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

It’s been an interesting couple of days of learning about the one and only, Bobby McFerrin. Everyone knows Bobby by his world-wide hit, “Don’t Worry, Be Happy”, but few (myself included) know the depths of talent this gentleman happens to have. Sunday afternoon I stumbled across a clip of Bobby captivating and educating an audience [...]

Vacation Rental!

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

Today we met Philip, a real-estate/retail dude who was on vacation on a cruise ship to Juneau. We gave him a ride to Western Auto (of all places) to grab a pair of jeans as his only pair was in the wash (fish blood), and he had a tour in the afternoon on the icefield. [...]

The Bucket List

Friday, July 17th, 2009

What’s your bucket list like? This is a great video put to Tim McGraw’s “Live Like You Were Dying” song, but with video clips from “The Bucket List”. It’s very well done, and hopefully for the state of this site and your enjoyment, it stays on youtube indefinitely. Think about your bucket list. What items [...]

Explorations of Nature’s Beauty

Sunday, July 12th, 2009

My friend and fellow photographer, Daniel Buckscott, has been blessed with many things. I think the one that I’m most envious of is the fact that he gets the opportunity to explore so many of natures beautiful places as part of his ongoing efforts to document it, educate others and protect the environment. In time, [...]

What it all means

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

Watch this. It’s of course slanted towards the photographer, as it was originally drafted & posted on Scott Kelby’s blog as a guest post, but it resonates with the soul because of his honest review. 100 mph on a dead end road, or something more significant?

Mushrooms and Shock Waves

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

The other day I sat down to watch Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (number IV) and saw a scene that for some reason sparked another idea of something cool to do in life. I’m not sure how it will exactly work as I’m not particularly interested in being anywhere near an [...]
