24 to the Peezy
Fuh sheezy. Yes, I got it. Thanks for asking. I know you were worried that I would forget. No. The new firmware for my camera peeked out from behind the canon.jp curtain a little after 9pm yesterday. Technically a ‘day’ early for us on the east coast, but maybe not in Japan? I don’t know […]

keep walking, or running
In honor and celebration of Amy’s inaugural training day, where she ironically sits on the couch in her PJs and tries to start trying not to eat more snacks, AND her new slogan to keep movin’™ – I present this super extendo commercial for Johnnie Walker staring Hamish MacHamish. Which is oddly a series that […]

Training, Day One
Today is day one of training for the first of my half-marathons and since today is Monday, it is a rest day! I ran 5 miles yesterday so it’s good to rest today. Tomorrow starts the running portion of training. Today I start trying to start cutting back on snacks after dinner and vino with dinner, at least […]

oktapodi
I remember seeing a teaser for this short animated film called Oktapodi a few years ago. You can imagine how brief a teaser to a short is. The teaser showed two octopuses in love, and then violently separated. It looked fantastic, I wanted to see more and I vowed to follow their progress! I promptly […]

hos
I’ve re-committed myself to the Hearts of Space radio show. Evidence suggests it’s been around for 30 years but I only became aware shortly after moving to New Hampshire. Maybe it’s because that’s when I became a more serious NPR listener or maybe it’s because the show airs at 11pm on Saturdays. Not a time […]

intervene
I like this guy Philip Bloom. He’s a DP, among other things, out of England and he’s become quite popular on the DSLR video scene. I understand he’s been doing a lot of TV and stuff for a while but I only became aware of him after I got the mk2 and started cruising forums. […]

bag it
My dad introduced me today to this documentary short called ‘Bag It‘ about the 100 billion plastic shopping bags we use every year in America. The focus is on a possible upcoming ban on bags in Boston. I get the impression there’s a longer documentary, perhaps? It’s unclear (see below). I’m not sure what’s going […]

the prouty – fundraising
Amy and I are signed up for The Prouty cancer research bike ride this summer. It’s something we’ve both wanted to do for a while but our schedule has never allowed. We both know friends our own age who are currently fighting cancer and I personally haven’t done enough about it in the past. My […]

tiny yellow houses
I linked to relaxshax.com the other day after finishing up Derek’s book about tiny houses and I’ve now enjoyed episode 1 of Tiny Yellow Houses over on the YouTubes. Really appreciated the special effects at the shore. Nice touch!

err on the side of comfort
My Aeron Chair showed up today, kid! The office sprinkled some overtime pay on us after the new year and I said to myself, now is the time to shine. I opted out on the chrome bling and the leather arm rests, but I cranked it to 11 on the other options. Hooked myself up […]
