This is a pretty amazing bit of video. Shot in 1905, by Jack Kuttner one year before the horrific earthquake and fire of San Francisco. He then went on to shoot a 2nd video in 1906, showing the damage and wreckage of what was left and the rebuild.

I made this with iMovie from Apple iLife ‘09 because 1) I really wanted to use this song in something, and 2) I thought it would be quite nice to see all the good stuff on my photoblog in 3 mins.

iMovie was nice enough to only crash once and act weird twice. Thanks Apple. 

Music by The Alan Parsons Project, titled Mammagamma.
From the album Eye In The Sky: 25th Anniversary Edition (Remastered/Expanded).

Enjoy.

Funny what you can do with a bit of editing. If only he was this honest, we could at least give him a bit of respect, albeit tiny.

This little website is pretty damn amazing. Hours of fun.

As a follow up to ‘Tone Matrix,’ Andre Michelle now offers audio tool, which combines multiple audio machines to simulate a full DJ set up. You can then output the songs to your hard drive!

808 and 909 drums + a host of effects and bass units. Not to mention a the cute tone matrix.

Works pretty well too.

Derek and Clive had some great moments, this is one of their funniest ones which had me in stitches earlier. I don’t think it’s “SFW”. Listen to it wherever at your own risk. But DO listen to it.

Quote from WikiConsidered highly offensive by many at the time, the sketches primarily took the form of bizarre, sometime drunken streams of consciousness led by Cook, with interjections from Moore.

Argentinean TV falls for a joke from the video game Monkey Island.
They have got to be one of the dumbest TV stations around.

I found this story on reddit, and I thought I’d share it with you:


“My job is so fucking unbelievable. I’ll try to sum it up by first telling you about the folks I work with:

First, there is this supermodel wanna-be chick. Yeah, okay, she is pretty hot, but damn is she completely useless. The girl is constantly fixing her hair or putting on makeup. She is extremely self-centered and has never once considered the needs or wants of anyone but herself. She is as dumb as a box of rocks, and I still find it surprising that she has enough brain power to continue to breathe.

The next chick is completely the opposite. She might even be one of the smartest people on the planet. Her career opportunities are endless, and yet she is here with us. She is a zero on a scale of 1 to 10. I’m not sure she even showers, much less shaves her “womanly” parts. I think she might be a lesbian, because every time we drive by the hardware store, she moans like a cat in heat.

But the jewel of the crowd has got to be the fucking stoner. And this guy is more than just your average pothead. In fact, he is baked before he comes to work, during work, and I’m sure after work. He probably hasn’t been sober anytime in the last ten years, and he’s only 22. He dresses like a beatnik throwback from the 1960’s, and to make things worse, he brings his big fucking dog to work. Every fucking day I have to look at this huge Great Dane walk around half-stoned from the second-hand smoke. Hell, sometimes I even think it’s trying to talk with its constant bellowing. Also, both of them are constantly hungry, requiring multiple stops to McDonalds and Burger King, every single fucking day.

Anyway, I drive these fucktards around in my van and we solve mysteries and shit.”
