8-Track

Found this 8-track of my dad's today in my grandpop's basement. Too priceless.

Panorama App Makes Wide Angles A Snap

Get it. Snap. Like snap a photo.

Anyway I got this new app and tried it out on the train. As you can see, I need a little work aligning my pictures. But in theory, this could produce some really cool photos.

My First Cappuccino

It is now May and that means I am once again drinking coffee. Two days after starting my month removed, my brother in law brought over his old espresso maker that I had been asking for.

Now that I am back to caffeine, I found it fitting to break it out and see what it (or I) could produce. All in all, not bad. Sure, I burnt my finger on the steamer and the Capp was a bit light, but I would still call it a success.

No DVD

I got on the train today and it had these amazing new seats that were more of a couch cushion. I though to myself - good thing I have The Wire or id pass out sitting on this seat.

Turns out I didn't not have The Wire. I left the disc at home. Needless to say, it wasn't log before I was out. Felt sluggish all day too.

Yard Work

And what a nice day for it. Start of a new season today. Broke out the tractor and proceeded to get it stuck in a part of the yard that holds water. It was a messy affair getting it out.

Last ride for the tractor too. We are getting a zero-turn in this week! If it is as good as I expect I might consider cutting neighbors lawns this summer for some extra cash.

My New Setup

My parents got me a wireless keyboard and it has made my iPad even better. While surfing and just the general portability makes it even more portable than a laptop. Sitting down to write some emails or type up a doc is definitely made easier with a keyboard. Sure I could just grab my laptop, but the iPad is still more portable and lighter than my laptop even with the keyboard.

License Plate Frame Choices

I like taking note of people's license plates when they say something, frames too. But this one was just asking go be taken note of. What is going on there?

They Are Everywhere

The Toyota Prius. Don't believe me? Start paying attention to them when you are out driving. You are guaranteed to start seeing them everywhere once you do.

Wake Up Song

So much of your energy in the morning is based on those opening moments of the day. How startling, how disoriented are most of our mornings. Instead, putting on a record to slowly bring you out of that fog is a way that gets me so much better adjusted during my morning routine.

LP Art

12inch prints like this are reason alone to buy physical media.

Double Takes From Music

A siren in a song or a music title that is also the time of day, it can be confusing.

Storage Containers

Nothing good happens in storage containers. I mean look at this. Does it even feel safe?
