The Week in Review

11 Aug 2006

It’s another wonderful Friday afternoon, and I feel like making a quick “review” post. Ready?

  • Dave and Des are engaged! Wow – I knew it was in the works but not when (when a guy follows his woman to another school, what do you expect?). Congrats to them!! (update – the wedding has occurred!)
  • I went wakeboarding this week and landed a mute grab. Nothing huge, but hey, its my first grab evar!! Now I just need to get this photographed…
  • I almost bought the new Sony DSLR-A100, but stopped at the last moment. I then read the preview of the new Nikon D80 (released this week). Now I have no idea what I’m gonna get – I have to wait for the production model review to decide – and that’s at least another month of waiting.
  • Some terrorists almost blew up some planes. Now I can’t take liquids or electronic devices on my next flight. Good thing I wasn’t planning on flying anytime soon…
  • Speaking of the terrorists, a lady had to peel her banana before flying and this other lady likes to cover NYC with rubber bands (ok so its technically called art)…
  • Here’s a cool tutorial on turning a photo of a house into something more eriee
  • This is a gallery of amazing vector art. You really really really won’t believe this. Really. [here's a little tutorial]
  • Here’s a handy guide to fighting back when those jerks at the RIAA decide to call your number
  • Oh yea, and ’tis high time to start being more careful when TP’ing someone’s house.

Well, I suppose that covers most of it. I’m spending the weekend in Columbus to attend Ryan and Jenna’s wedding, so I’ll try and take some photos to post up (along with a little narrative, perhaps). With all these weddings and engagements, I’m starting to feel a little “behind the times.” Ho well… ’till next time, “be cool!”
