How to make the best movie ever

With the multitude of awesome movies out this summer, I figure might as well show you what works and what doesn’t work (from my point of view anyway).
Surely, there are more then a single post’s worth of things that contribute to a movie, but, I’m no expert at directing movies, (just check my YouTube channel), [...]

Bon Jovi Live at Central Park

You may or may not have heard that Bon Jovi did a free concert at Central Park yesterday.  Well, I was there, and it was pretty damn awesome!  Two of us from Deadly Computer were there, and one of my friends came too.  We got there at 1:30pm, and then waited till 8pm for the [...]

How To Stay Occupied on Jury Duty

Well, given my recent time on Jury Duty over the past week, I figured I would give you guys a few pointers as to how to stay occupied while you’re sitting, waiting for something to do.  Also, given that I was on Jury Duty, I didn’t deem it prudent to come up with a post [...]

The shield will be down in moments…

…you may start your landing.
Whoever this is officially has the greatest wireless network name ever.  The only thing I ask of you is if you are out there, send us an email.  Because we want a picture of it with no encryption for just a second so we can say “The shield is down!”
Oh, and [...]

The Zune Car

While waiting inline at the Apple Store in SoHo last night to see Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway promote their new movie Get Smart, this car passed by which clearly has the Zune logo on it’s spare wheel cover, and on the side window.  Clearly that person is obsessed.
Here’s a bonus picture of me and [...]

Jury Duty downtime

I has it.
So there will probably not be many updates this week.  But I’ll try to get some in in the evenings anyway.

Photo Winners

Alright, after a very lack luster response to my Photo survey from last week, I have some winners.  Only 9 people responded, and one I had to not count cause they checked all of them, and that’s not what I was looking for.
Here are the 4 that you choose:

The Happening

M. Night Shyamalan’s new movie The Happening came out yesterday. I saw it.  I enjoyed it.  Now I want to talk about it.  Or, more specifically, Shyamalan himself.
It seems that no one (at least critics, and well, people in general I guess) respects him as a director.  And I don’t know if they ever did.  [...]

Which Photos should I frame?

So, I like to take pictures, lots of them.  Up until December, I had just kept them either as digital files on my computer, or as the original 4×6 printed versions (I still use a 35mm SLR, I’m old school). However, in December, I had one of my pictures enlarged, printed out, and framed as [...]

Some Downtime this week

The entire server will be unavaliable for an unknown length of time starting anytime after 8am (EST) Friday, June 06, 2008.  The reason being, we’re upgrading the cable at my house to digital tv, and phone, and apparently that requires a new modem, and I’m not allowed to install it myself.  So Cablevision is coming [...]
