MmmMmmmmm Spicy! “Hello, my name is David. And I’m an addict” I’ll admit it. I’m an addict. A caffeine addict. I seldom go a day without a 10 or more ‘cups’ (what do they call a cup, 6 oz. or something.. pffft.. rubbish) of coffee. That means I go through beans like a Mexican canned [...] Text message I received yesterday I received that text message while en-route to picking up the kids yesterday. Reading that first sentence can really give one’s heart a stop. That strange part was that I’d had a dream last night about them being in an accident, but just dismissed it as random dream time [...] Last night, around 1:00 AM I popped outside to try some free-hand night shooting with the Canon 50D camera. Being so early in the morning, light was basically non-existent. I’ve never shot the camera at such and extreme ISO. It’s and experiment to see what noise levels are experienced at those speeds. There are [...] Over the last week, I have seen a new emergency airlift helicopter landing at the hospital. Airlift Northwest – EuroCopter EC135 tail N139AM I’ve seen this airframe type in use before, but the livery is different from anything I’ve seen to date. One of the nicer aspects of this type of aircraft is [...] The last couple of days have been pretty nice. I had my older 20D camera body loaded with the 100-400L Zoom and next to my desk. More than a few times a week, the AirLift Northwest helicopters bring people into the trauma center at Harrisons. So, I decided to snap a few pics. They [...] America Rising CAN YOU HEAR US NOW!?!? Your progressive ideologies are bankrupt, now our country and economy are not far behind. Time to spend some of your slush fund buying a clue. You had the mandate, you had all the power, and you failed. It’s time to concentrate on strengthening America, not your stranglehold over [...] The Progressive Revolution hit’s another road bump. While riding the ferry to Seattle yesterday, I could not help but overhear a conversation between what was most certainly (in my eye) a heavily Liberal leaning older woman, and a pair of travelers from the UK. Talk of Tony Blair, George Bush and Gordon Brown (whom the travelers thought was a complete mistake), [...] My friend Steve, in Reno, sent me this link. Norm Dicks seems to taken off gaurd. It’s interesting that this meeting appears to be held in the very building that carries his name: The Norm Dicks Government Center Somehow the conversation at work devolved into us finding this little gem: Hemp for Victory. 1943 Film by the US Government. It’s 10 min. long, and seems to have been sped up a bit during digitizing. According to the websie where I found this, the film was VERY difficult to locate, and a usable copy [...] |
