Flash (Flood) Back

I remember back in aught-four when the Big Sioux River burst its banks. Yeah, thems was the days. (FYI, just fiddling around with posting video to Google Video. Seems pretty slick.)

My Music Collection

Nobody who reads this cares. Heck, nobody reads this, period. Regardless, here is a link to a list of my entire music library. Feel free to browse. And let me know if you see something you like.

Frightful? Only If You're Commuting

The weather outside is definitely snowy. Which turned a 35-minute drive into a 90-minute one. Still, I guess I'd rather have slow traffic than hazardous speeding traffic.


Here's a photo I took during the snowy turtle-race.



And here's what it looks like from the window of my office building. Kinda pretty when you don't have to consider driving in it.

Oooooo...Fliptop Lens Cover Action

I just got a new lens cover for my soon-to-be-fading-into-obsolescence camera. My other cover had broken, so I opted for the mighty Olycap. It's pretty sweet, as it just swings open. No more fiddling with dangling lens covers or accidentally popping it off. The only thing I have to make sure is to open the cap before turning on the camera. The cap will get in the way of the extending lens and probably not feel to good to the internal mechanisms. And if it breaks the camera, well, I guess I'll just have to get a new one :)

To Reiterate, I Love Macs

Remember that Macintosh font issue a couple posts back? Looks like it's not limited to iChat.


I guess that doesn't matter. I mean, the fact that OS X is so sleek and cool and swooshy makes up for the fact that I can't read a darn thing I type.

This Is Pretty Fun

Care for a minor diversion? Check out Vectorball. It gets cool after the first few levels. Admittedly, I haven't played enough to get more than a mediocre score.
