I want this dog (Australian Blue-Merle Koolie). Oh and this puppy. That is all.

You're kidding me. 2008 must hold the record for fasting passing year in the history of recorded time. I swear a second ago was mid March and now it's almost September? Yikes man! Before we know it the new NBA season will kick into gear. Craziness. Dudes, I am about 95% complete with all the wedding videos and what not I've been working on. For those graced with the honor of attending our wedding what is there to expect? ...greatness. Okay, that's a little much, but I am enjoying all the little goodies we h ave put together. Marieta is really going above and beyond. What have I have been doing? Music, Videos, I lined up the dj, photographer, videographer, a few small things here and there. I'd say the work is about 80-20, the weight being Marieta (however, the video projects I've done take days/weeks to prepare so don't think I haven't been grinding out each spare moment.) Want a preview of those videos? well I can't really do that but I can show a c...

My official statement on the Dark Knight: Whoa. That movie was so good it was just a whoa. To quote Wesley Willis it was a freak out hell ride to the max. The few parts where the pace slowed were still so tense that it was hard to breathe some times. Now I know a lot of people are saying it but I have to agree; Heath Ledger deserves an oscar. I don't think any charactor has been played that intensely. NOT A SINGLE ONE. The opening bank robbery establishes the jokers take no prisoners scheming but when he breaks into the mob boss meeting, oh man, brutal. Now, I wasn't a big Ledger fan prior to this film. I depise 10 Things I Hate About You and Knights Tale is barely watchable, but after his performance in this and Brokeback Mountain, I'm actually feeling a little upset that we only get to see Heath one more time. It's obvious he was really starting to feel his craft, and throw himself into charactors in a way that few have before. (Pacino in Godfather and Godfather two, ...

I'm finally going to see The Dark Knight. I worked this morning, and I'm putting in some overtime at KCBS making sure that a new web writer understands how to use the webcode and the whole uploading process (so basically she does all the hardwork and I watch over her occasionally to say "No, you need to convert the audio from Wav to Mp3." Hardwork). So 13 hours of work on a Monday adds up to what? A free day tomorrow and a date with Batman, Joker, Harvey Dent, THE WHOLE GANG! I spit in the face of sleep deprievation. So what if I'm a month late to the party, I am still getting to it before it leaves the silver screen. Tomorrow is going to be pretty sweet. Finish up some a few wedding goodies, do some drawing for a childrens book, work on the wedding tunes, and Batman. Today is kind of like cramming before a big test. I'm shoving as much work as possible into today so I can do something important the following day. So awesome. Oh and tomorrow I turn 26. Yow...

31 days till I say I do. Pretty exciting. Looking at my list of goods to get done, it's seems pretty manageable. I kind of feel like my list is full of surprises so I can't give you the details but some of them are finding people to take pictures for our photo guestbook, finish the wedding music, and talk with family members... so there's a taste. Marieta's list starts to deflate and than one project turns into five so no rest for the weary. I know it's all gonna get done. Just looking at the list I can see that there really are not many things to buy or what not, just coordinating the details. Making sure we have everyone in the right place and all contracted peeps happy. I'm excited. After this weekend my list is gonna be a ghost town. I'm rocking it. Videos are almost all done. And that's a big deal. When that's done I will have probably edited down close to an hour and a half of video stuff (shower stuff, kids corner stuff, and surprise videos), ...

That's me and my new phone, the LG Dare. Touch Screen, 3 mp camera, great video, in camera effects for video (slow mo, fades, edit). Good stuff. I like it a lot; however it is an example of my lust for new tech gear, and to that end... Best Buy is putting vending kiosks in major airports. A little late to this game if you ask me, but still one more thing to tempt me from parting ways with my money. Working the early shift at channel 5 this morning, one of the anchors was cracking wise about guys and tech goodies. "Oh I needed it, I needed it." ...Is that true or what? Tech toys for guys are the equivalent of clothes and shoes for girls except much more expensive so we can't indulge nearly as much; however, that won't keep us from spending hours oogling cameras, tvs, mp3 players, software, etc. Oh man do I have this bad. You know in Waynes World where Wayne finally buys that Fender Stratocaster (a guitar that I don't consider all that awesome [even though I...

Dude, does that look freaking delicious or what? You have got to check out the stuff over at hannah's gluten intolerant blog: Gluten-Free Garden . She is really got something going there.

Meet Spencer Dennis Jensen. Jordan's new born son. How cool is that? Every time I think about this little dude it kind of trips me out. My best friend has a kid. He's a parent. ALL MY FRIENDS ARE HAVING BABIES! Well... not truly my friends. I mean Marieta's best friend Autumn has two kids, her other friend Sarah got married this past May and absorbed two youngins , Matt and Angie just adopted a girl, and now Bethany and Jordan have one of their own. BETHANY IS YOUNGER THAN ME! Hmm ... I haven't figured out if its them having kids that weirds me out or the idea that I could be a parent in the near future. YIKES! Let me get married first people, one step at a time. Oh and how weird is it that I came here to post about Spencer and this is how I'm greeted at my blogger dashboard: THEIR EVERYWHERE!

Well, that's not entirely true... Yes I am in middle of the 16 day straight workstand, but some of those work days are only five hours long. Now, before you say that's nothing, you must know that I am waking up at a 4am for those five hour days so adding delirious fatigue to those short work days makes it feel eight hours long... On top of that the play portion of my life right now is wedding work. Okay, my wedding work yesterday consisted of rounding up some pictures and working on the wedding march but that's not exactly riding an innertube down a waterslide. I MUST SEE THE DARK KNIGHT THIS WEEKEND! If I don't I wont have any free time until August 14th! CBS gets their time, Marieta gets her time, whats left for Batman? Shouldn't someone be concerned about his feelings?

Browsing through my reader this morning an interesting article popped up . 13 days into its box office run the Dark Knight has taken in close to 350 Million bucks, so people are wondering if it has the stones to take down the big one... Titanic . That's a pretty tall order. Pretty boy Leonardo Dicaprio and a mirage of a great story destroyed the box office en route to 600 Million domestic bills. At the time people were calling it the best movie ever made, now looking back thats pretty hilarious, but it did push it into a couple of the top oscars. Similar to Titanic, the Dark Knight is crushing the American hype-o-sphere. everyone has been loving this film since Heath's ravaged mug hit the net over a year ago. Colleges have probably already started devising marketing class ciriculum. Most advertising campaigns suffer from a public backlash but with The Dark Knight redefining viral marketing, we weren't given the opportunity to get sarcastic. The building anticipation help ...
