The One Million Euro Lamborghini Reventon

Everyone knows I have an affinity for cars I could never afford, especially Lamborghini’s. I have no idea why, but when it comes to auto manufactures, you can have all the Ferrari’s in the world, if I could just have one Lambo. Lamborghini’s latest is also their most expensive, only 20 are available, and all [...]


Testing the iPhone’s Camera

I decided to take the iPhone’s camera for a spin today, here’s a few of the results, completely unedited. As you can see, the iPhone takes some pretty decent images for a phone, but it’s not going to replace your DSLR anytime soon. Call this your Daily Flickr.


What a Day…

What a day I had yesterday, first my DVD player broke, then Apple announced a shit ton of new iPods and dropped the price on the iPhone $200, on the very day mine was set to arrive. I immediately called Apple and the friendly support guy I talked to refunded me the difference. Thank god. [...]


What’s a Guy Gotta Do to Get a Decent DVD Player?

And another one bites the dust. This one lasted just over a year, as they always seem to do, just long enough to make sure they aren’t covered under a manufacturers warranty.
By my estimation I have now gone through no less than seven DVD players in the last eight years. I’m not even a heavy [...]


Netflix No Longer Sending Immediate Replacements for Mislabeled Movies

After a brief foray into Blockbuster Online’s service I have returned to Netflix for a few reasons; Blockbusters slow shipping (due to too few distribution centers), Netflix recent price drops combined with Blockbusters increases (never say I’m not budget minded), and Netflix’s superior HD-DVD selection (for that shiny new HD-DVD upgrade of mine). I’ve been [...]


The Cocoa Killer coming soon

I’m editing our latest Project Silence Film right now, The Cocoa Killer. Check back soon for the finished movie!


My Daily Rant (iPhone Related)

I have a blog. Now I’m going to rant (in a very random way).
Some people have complained about the iPhone’s touchscreen interface, claiming they will have to look at the phone to speed dial, and that could distract them. If what you are doing is so important that you can’t look away for 10 seconds [...]


The 4th of July: Are You Part of the Problem?

Tomorrow is the 4th of July, one of the biggest holidays in our country. Some of the select minority will have the day off to enjoy with family and reflect. The vast majority of the working class will go to work, as if it where any other day. Why? Does it really have to be [...]


Back From Washington

I’m back from my recent trip to Washington DC and I have to say it was quite the experience.
The day before we left, I was packing all belongings to take on the trip. All was going well until I checked my camera (an admittedly aging Canon SD 100) to make sure it was ready to [...]


Silence Is Going On Vacation

I last took a vacation in the spring of 2002, so I figure I’m about due for one (and that was to Huston, TX’s to visit a friend, Texas is far from a vacation paradise). I’ll be spending about 4 days in Washington, DC. I’ve never been there, so I’m looking forward to it.
I’ve always [...]
