and when there was no meat, we ate fowl and when there was no fowl, we ate crawdad and when there was no crawdad to be found, we ate sand.
You ate what?
We ate sand.
You ate SAND?
That's right

testing out the polaroid peel-back large format film

developed some pictures today

had to scan them because I don't have any photo paper to make prints, which sucks because some of these pictures would look sooooo much better developed in a darkroom. Here are a couple sections of the negatives that I developed today...they are basically just test shots, I was trying out a different medium format camera. The main reason I took the pictures was because it was REALLY foggy out, thought it would just look cool...but like I said, alot of detail was lost because I scanned the negatives on a regular flatbed scanner. The film is 120mm Arista, 100 ISO (click on the pictures to enlarge them)

usually

when I post something on the internet, I'm typing as if I'm actually talking. I think I'm a good writer when I concentrate, but usually it's just me talking. Sometimes I am screaming

300

sometimes I go to movies to deliberately not give a fuck about character development or to relate events in the movie to life. I mean, you could relate Ghostbusters to the war on terrorism if you really wanted to, albeit it would be a more ambiguous relation. Point being, I dont give a fuck that it can be related to current events. It was related to an incredible graphic novel. I went in expecting it to be 100% related to a graphic novel, and that's basically what I feel that I got. Some parts more awesome, some parts worse, but ultimately it kicked ass.

trying to get back into the swing of blogging

new goal = 1 post a day, or at least a post per week

the only problem is that I don't have anything to talk about

I recently watched An Inconvenient Truth and was really amazed at how captivating and charasmatic Al Gore is, he's a really incredible public speaker

Also I am scared

weird crop of my face with a little bubble of spit in my mouth
