6-Step Stroll Through The Park

It is HOT again! I intended to drive to the beach where it is lovely and cool...but, my eco-logical side kicked in and cancelled my plans. I stayed closer to home, still got to ride in my air-conditioned car and burned a lot less gasoline.

I tried a new video technique. The video is comprised of still photos, shot at 6 step intervals along the trail. My journey also led me to post an idea on the Halfbakery. Be sure check out the Halfbakery site. Weird, funny, thoughtful, stupid...you name it! Lots of ideas.

Video: Red Apple Karaoke 7-9-08


I wasn't the only genius who took shelter from the heat and made the trip to the Red Apple.

We actually had good singers, great singers and awesome singers last night. You have to decide which is which. Of course not everyone was taped and the poor singer was omitted, explaining why there is no video of me. I've posted some snippets of the singers who were taped, onto this video.

Note: If you are singer and would like a full, dvd quality clip, e-mail me. You must put "Karaoke Clip Request" in the subject line of your e-mail and indicate in your message the time that your snippet starts so I can send you the correct video.

For a limited time only, there is no charge for your video if your have Yahoo Messenger and can do a direct file transfer. I'll send instructions in a reply to your e-mail. No requests will be honored after July 20th when the original video will be erased.

Video of Fireworks in Stayton, OR - 7-4-2008


Stayton put on a great fireworks show this year. The had a number of "faux finales" and it really got the cheers going from the crowd. The grand finale brought the house down. Good job Stayton.

Parking was not quite as nice as the show. Next year, I won't even start my car until ½ hour after the show is over. Parking was dusty and with only a single driveway for 1,000's of cars...well, you get the picture. I finally parked and listened to Luciano Pavarotti sing Puccini's "Nessun Dorma". Awesome!

Stayton 4th of July Parade - July 4, 2008 (Redacted)

If you want to see high-quality pictures of the parade, check out Celine's blog. She takes absolutely fanatastic photos. If she ever decides to give lessons, I'm first in line.

(I'll have to figure out how to stop my hands and body from shaking to even take a "decent" photo)
