drag racing on 17th street

Went to watch the queen’s last night. I’ve always heard about it but never made the trip. It’s quite a scene. Check out the good footage i got:

A great football ending

I missed the news this weekend, but check out this video of the ending of Trinity doing over 20 laterals to score a touchdown to win on the last play of the game:

iPhone will take down Blackberry eventually

I had a Blackberry Pearl and loved it.  I was planning to keep it - until i saw a friend’s iPhone.  It was just so frackin’ slick that i couldn’t stay away.  Does Blackberry do email better?  Yes.  Does Blackberry have some better/smaller sizes that are better for a cell phone?  Yes, definitely.  But is [...]

Music industry is actual doing ok

Just read a good comment about the Music Industry on Chris Anderson’s blog: here.

The Dirt on/by Motley Crue

I just finished reading the book The Dirt, a semi-autobiography of the 80’s band Motley Crue. It’s a great read that is pretty mesmorizing.
