Banana: The Atheist’s Nightmare

Kirk Cameron from Growing Pains, and some creepy dude with a banana fetish have convinced me.

Timelapse Fun

In preparation for our Italy Trip, I just bought a new camera, a Nikon Coolpix P4.
I’m liking it so far, and one of the cool geeky features is the ability to do a timelapse movie. It will take a picture every 30 seconds (or longer, unfortunately not very configurable) and then stitch them all together […]

Hi John-

In August of 2004, two friends and I trekked from Madison, WI to Coventry, VT for the final Phish concerts.
Along with hordes of dirty hippies came a deluge of rain. We managed to get in early, but this […]
