Hey everyone...basic things...I like to make movies, shoot DV and 16, edit, and score music. I love sitting around with people and playing guitar, I've played for about 9 years and would probably be in a band if I didn't spend so much time behind a camera. For everything else, just look at my interests to the left, and send me an IM if you want -

Paper, Snow, and All Things White

A lot of things come to mind when I think about that furry white dog.  I was 11 years old when we brought him home.  My friends all seemed to like him.  While in school people would ref...

Step 1: Turn Water Off

There were two things I wanted to accomplish tonight, a list two things longer than most.  The toilet has kept running for the past few days, a sound that's only amplified by my reluctance in tal...

An Apple a Day

I've been bringing my lunch to work, and been in search of a third item. So far, I have a sandwich and some chips. Both taste just fine, but by about four o'clock I get hungry again, which makes me ...

Sing a Sad Song

Everybody needs a dramatic story. At least that's how it seems on "American Idol". It's a common tactic by the producers of these talent shows to dramatize the history of a potentially successful cont...

Two Thousand and Seven

Can I put 2007 into words?  Or maybe not into words, into a list perhaps?  What about a count down?  I don't want to do anything like "Best Events of 2007", because sometimes the ones t...

Not Quite Adding Up

It's strange the amount of amusement I'm finding in all of these web ads I see whenever I go to check my email or myspace account. It makes me wonder about the research that goes into not only the pr...

Testing Negative

When I'm at the supermarket I see all of these articles on magazines. The news is powerful and varied, wars, unstoppable diseases, and Bob Barkers retirement. On a quick skim in between information ...

Seeing Stars
