They took ‘er economy
I’m not suggesting you watch the entire South Park “recession” episode (Margaritaville) because, well, it’s entirely unsuitable for viewing at work or home, it’s offensive and gross. However, if those things don’t bother you, there are some classic scenes that … Continue reading
You failed. It sucks. Now learn from it.
Honda is distributing a series of mini-documentaries via a special website and simultaneously, YouTube. I strongly recommend watching the video embedded below, an 8-minute video Honda describes as “an inside look at the mishaps of Honda racers, designers and engineers … Continue reading

Can you actually believe we thought video on the Internet was going to be huge?
The Important Part: There are those who preach that print is dead. I’m starting to believe it’s reading that’s dead. I am convinced people don’t read past the first sentence of an email, the first paragraph of a blog post, … Continue reading
A participant’s view from the Country Music 1/2 Marathon
During yesterday’s Country Music 1/2 Marathon, I used my little Canon TX1 (the ‘rex-cam’) to shoot some video from a participant’s point of view. The video below is very shaky and raw — no editing except to put all the … Continue reading
I love vacillation humor, I’m just kidding
I confess: I’m a Kristen Wiig fan. Anything the Saturday Night Live cast-member does cracks me up. I don’t know why, exactly, but her new character, “travel writer Judy Grimes,” is especially funny to me. I guess I’m amused by … Continue reading
