As the title of the video says “Why every guy should buy their girlfriend a Wii Fit” , Guess I should put it on loop

Ahhh boo, looks like Youtube removed it, but I found another version.

If your not sure what she is doing head on over to the Nintendo Wii Fit Site.

Rumor on the net has it that this is the girl in a bikini on Flickr

Tahoe City Meadows,
originally uploaded by Gate-Way.

This is very close to the cabin in Tahoe City, in fact its about 25 min walk from the cabin. Each Year this meadow changes from snow, to a swamp, to a nice field. Just thought I would share this picture from Lake Tahoe. It’s been a while since I had a chance to update my blog.

Of course this was during Memorial Day weekend, usually this time of year its in the 70’s and shorts weather, but we ran into snow this time around.

I have to say I really like this one and the story was great, I had heard rumors over the years that the next Indiana Jones would be about Atlantas and I think they finally decided to go with something else and have been hard at work on this new one. Harrison Ford as old as he is, he still does a great job in the movie and the action, humor and mystery is non stop.

Don’t worry I won’t give anything away but I did really like this one and I need to go back and watch the previous ones again, to see where it fits in my list of Indiana Jones movies I like.

Enjoy some photos from a private lunch after the screening, these are some props from the movie and of course these wont give anything away. They wouldn’t let us take pictures of the really cool stuff, and I agree it would give some things away.

Unfortunately I only had my shitty camera phone for these photos, oh well next time

Sorry for the poor quality, oh well, also I’m not going to post some photos due to the lack of potential spoilers… but if you want to see some more head on over to my flickr account also no spoilers there either.

I’m curious as to how this movie will do when it opens up next week, I do say I had a great time and getting up at 7am to catch the movie was worth it.

Here is a screen shot of the singles cover and we found something interesting looking at the id tags stating to visit www.nin.com on May 5th…  Hmm makes you wonder whats going on next.

Here is a screen shot of the Id Tag pulled from iTunes.

Trent seems to amaze me at the things they are pushing with web technology and releasing more media in digital format.  I hope just more artist pick up on this type of stuff and move to more towards digital downloads, screw the Record Companies!

WTF is that about?

Thats an additional $17.30 extra added onto my ticket price. Holy outrage Batman, what the hell are they getting away with here. Ok let me look at my order again to make sure I didn’t accidentally order the gold plated ticket.

Here is the break down:

Main Ticket: $35
Total Convenience Charge: $9.56 (wtf thats not a convenience)
Order Processing Charge: $5.15 (you know processing feeds for cc’s are about 2-3%, thats about $1.05 buddy)
Ticket Fast: $2.50 (oh sure, I just wanted to print my ticket, so you charged me more than a stamp, envelope, paper and mailing it)

I could drove from my house, across the Golden Gate Bridge, paid the $5 fee to go across the bridge, then went down to the Warfield ticket office probably paid $37.45 (im taking into consideration 7% tax), That still leaves me almost $10, where I could of went to this cheap Thai place for some good ass spicy drunken noodle.

This is a complete outrage as to what these companies get to charge now. I mean things on the web are supposed to be cheaper. WTF kind of rip off is this Ticketmaster?

Sasha and Digweed, I need to have a nice chat with you guys at the show, this is really crazy, at least if they threw in a free drink or two I would be happy but I sure feel ripped off.

Flickr Vision is a simple website that takes photos that are posted in flickr that have been geo tagged (gps data embedded into the photo) and displays them on a 2d or 3d map. Its pretty neat and you can find your self just watching the 3d version for quite some time. I do want to point out this isn’t real time, meaning that the photo posted could of been taken a day ago but someone just decided to add it to flikr, what is real time is when they add it.

anyhow head on over to Flickr Vision and check it out for your self. I prefer the 3d view personally.
