People with SLRs
It seems like basically everyone has an SLR in San Francisco. Probably just tourists. I saw a middle-schooler with a 5D and wanted to throw up. That’s the jealousy talking.

Iron Man
Really good but not 96% good. That means critics liked it more than basically every movie except Toy Story 2. As far as summer blockbusters go, I liked Transformers more. But that could’ve also had to do with not being … Continue reading

And, judging by this, so is Peyton Manning. Reminds me of the United Way SNL skit, except with grownups and it’s for real.

Realigning the site
I’m making a few changes to the site. I’ve been fairly stubborn about having the horizontal layout on the photos. I don’t actually go through all the photography posts that often, but it seems like it’s about time to take … Continue reading

Deception
First time in a long time that I went to a movie without knowing what sort of reviews it was receiving. And it reminded me of why I keep up with movie reviews. It has Wolverine and Obi-Wan. Hugh Jackman … Continue reading

Video of eagles dropping goats off of cliffs and coming back to scavenge. Exactly what it sounds like, so if you don’t want to see eagles dropping goats off of cliffs and coming back to scavenge, don’t watch.

Outside my house
Janice said I should take pictures of where I live. Here are a few shots outside the house and around the neighborhood. I’m renting a room in a townhouse. When I tell people where I live, the response is sometimes, “Oh the place with the stucco and faux Tuscan exterior?” And they say it like it’s a bad thing. I don’t I don’t know if I’m not cultured enough or something, but I like it.

Do you smell what Barack is cooking. Fast forward to the middle. The best part is how happy Obama is when he finishes saying it. Sort of reminds me of when Tiger Woods says “for shizzle”.

San Jose road trip: Nine
San Francisco Urban Hike 2008. I found out yesterday that the taxi up the hill to Huf would’ve cost probably $7, but I guess I wouldn’t have been able to take these pictures.

This was my first time watching a Wes Anderson film, and I can definitely see the appeal. I imagine it’s a love it or hate it type movie. The whole idea of brotherhood is handled well—Adrian Brody, Jason Schwartzman, and … Continue reading

Where I work and a little bit about the night life

San Jose road trip: Five
Lost Coast Brewery. I really enjoyed this place. The fries had some kind of lemon/Parmesan thing going on and the calamari was probably the best I can ever remember having. But I’m always saying so-and-so is “the best I’ve had/watched/remember” so take that with a grain of salt. So hey, if in the off chance that you happen to be driving through Eureka, I recommend stopping here.

San Jose road trip: Four
Images aren’t all the same height. So I just changed the width and height in the image tag of the 2nd and 4th pictures. That’s why they look horrible. If the others look horrible also, then I’m just doing a bad job behind the camera.

Comparing movies based on Stephen King stories, I liked 1408 a little more. But this has Tom Jane, who I didn’t realize was actually a real actor when watching the Arrested Development episodes. Same thing with Judge Reinhold. So that … Continue reading
