Back to Photography

I'm going to try and bring my camera with the 50mm lens next week. Hopefully I can get some good photos of Baltimore without getting mugged. :D

And then the fight started....

My wife and I are watching "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" while we were in
bed. I turned to her and said, "Do you want to have sex?"
"No," she answered.
I then said, "Is that your final answer?"
She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, "Yes."
So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend."
And then the fight started...
****


A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She is not happy
with what she sees and says to her husband, "I feel horrible; I look old,
fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment."
The husband replies, "Your eyesight's darn near perfect."
And then the fight started.....
****


Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, grabbed
the dog, and slipped quietly into the garage. I hooked up the boat up to
the truck, and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour. The wind
was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio,
and discovered that the weather would be bad all day.
I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed..
I cuddled up to my wife's back, now with a different anticipation, and
whispered, "The weather out there is terrible."
My loving wife of 10 years replied, "Can you believe my stupid husband is
out fishing in that?"
And that's how the fight started ...
****


I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order
first. "I'll have the strip steak, medium rare, please."
He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?"
"Nah, she can order for herself."
And then the fight started.....

Time Warp 360

Since around mid to late 2008, Wednesday nights have become Discovery Channel nights.  It means we get to watch three amazing Discovery Channel shows: Mythbusters, Time Warp, and Prototype This.  Mythbusters is about Adam and Jaime trying to confirm or bust myths and urban legends.  Time Warp is about slowing things down to about 1,000 frames per second.  Prototype This is probably what DIYers want to do when they grow up....  or if they're given 2 weeks and a huge budget.

Discovery seems to be preparing for the next season because lately they've been playing reruns.  One of them is Time Warp's skateboard episode.

Watch and enjoy! (especially the 360)

Save it for a rainy day...

I hope you did.

This appeared when I accessed my account this evening:


From NYTimes.com: Government Seizes WaMu and Sells Some Assets

That was last Thursday. Earlier today, Dow Jones fell almost 778 points - the worst single-day drop in two decades

And Citigroup bought Wachovia


Well, goodbye iphone, hello ipon.

Russell Peters in Manila!

I received an email saying that Russell Peters will have a show in Manila on Oct 31 at the NBC Tent!

Nice!

For those who don't know him, visit http://www.russellpeters.com . Also, search "Russell Peters Outsourced" in youtube.

For those who do, and if you're in Manila, you better make sure you get tickets to this show! :D. I've seen "Red, White and Brown" in New York earlier this year and although I can't say that it's better than Outsourced, there's a lot of new materials in there that will keep you laughing from start 'til the end of the show.

And yes, I think he's way better than Rex Navarette.

We made it!



Team #82 with our car, Bebop - The little cow that could.


That Renault Clio survived the (almost) 2000 km drive from Boulogne to Besancon to Turin (thru the French Alps!!!) to Nice to Marseilles to Arles to Avignon to Beaune (Burgundy region) to Paris!

Will post more stories and pics soon!
