8 years ago today, I got my first digital camera, the Nikon D1x. I always remember the date because it was on the same day as the first alleged* lunar landing. Since then, I estimate that I have taken over 2 million images, which is the equivalent of 55,555 rolls of film... so if nothing else, digital photography is better for the environment. I was an early adopter of digital technology. I was always a bit of a computer geek/Mac nerd, so when digital became available and usable in 2001, I jumped all over it and never looked back. I love the quality and control it gives me over my images and I think the instant feedback of digital has helped me become a better photographer.

tosh.o is my new favorite show on Comedy Central. it's kinda like Talk Soup, but instead of talk shows, the guy just finds random funny stuff on the web. Check out this clip that had me cracking up the other night:

I knew when the new iPhone 3Gs with video came out it would only be a matter of time before the found a way to share those videos with the world asap. Sure, there were a few services doing it right away, but none as easy as the new and FREE TwitVid app. Here's a video I made before my wedding last Saturday:

Michael Vick was released from federal custody today. While I think it was absolutely horrible what he did, and I am glad he went to prison (usually rich people find a way to get out of it), I do think he paid his debt to society and I hope the NFL reinstates him. I am certain he learned his lesson and I am sure he won't ever do anything like that ever again. I hope he is able to sign with a team and play this year. The Raiders should probably sign him since most Raider fans participate in dog fighting as a tailgating activity right? That's just my 50 cent!

Before you get all twitchy and send me hate mail, I am not making fun or making light of dog fighting... I am making fun of Raider fans! ;-P

For the record, I do believe we landed on the moon in the summer of '69. Who are these people that believe in all of these conspiracy theories? But, I don't think Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the JFK assassination. Also for the record, I do not smoke pot, but I do believe in individual freedoms and choices, that marijuana should be legal for those adults who choose to "partoke" in such activities. Discuss!
