Year in Review?
No. I’m not ready yet to look back at 2007 or look forward to 2008. However, I did do some more photography experimentation. I won’t explain how these images were made. I’m sure it is painfully obvious.

Christmas Beanies
I hope you had a great and wonderful Christmas. My sister Teresa unloaded a new batch of beanies on me. I now have 7 new beanies. As it happens, while I was wandering around town last night, Fashion Photographer Jay Janson happened upon me several times and kept insisting on… Read More »Christmas Beanies

But the angel said to them: “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you. He is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:10-11 Merry Christmas! At Christmas we remember… Read More »Taiwan Times – December Issue
Bethelehem in 2007
To know me at all is to know that I listen to NPR on the way to work and the way home every day. I was really struck by this story on the way to work this morning. Although I do kind of want to punch the guy who said… Read More »Bethelehem in 2007
Symposer
We are quickly approaching Jay’s annual wine tasting party known as Symposium. This event always lies on the 2nd Saturday in January. Interestingly enough, this also happens to be the same way that Patterson Dental picks the date for their holiday party. This puts Willy in a bit of a… Read More »Symposer
Kentucky Fried Methodist
I’m not sure how the subject came about, but one day I was talking to Shannon and she revealed to me her extreme disdain for the cross on top of her church. I didn’t really know how somebody could dislike a lit up cross on top of a church. I… Read More »Kentucky Fried Methodist
Somebody Bet on the Bay
I ran into and old friend by the name of Sean Clubine at Best Buy yesterday. For some strange reason we began recounting horror stories about our time spent at Wesley Woods. Then he asked if I went to Mexico for confirmation. I didn’t. He asked because he wanted to… Read More »Somebody Bet on the Bay
Film School: Beowulf
\I heard something yesterday that incredibly angers me, but that might be for a later time. Here is a new episode of film school about the movie Beowulf. Jay is getting pretty good at the editing. Now if only I were to improve we might have something here. VIDEO DELETED
Film School: Calm Down
This episode is devoted to a movie made by a co-worker’s cousin. There is a prize for any person can figure out what word has been censored. VIDEO DELETED
American Gangster
This blog is 89 views away from 10,000! That might not be many views for you, but it is a lot for me so bugger off. No, I don’t mean that. Keep coming back. What a great weekend to be a Cyclone! In reality it is always a great Cyclone… Read More »American Gangster
Wristcutters: A Love Story
Just to explain what is going on in this video, somehow the original recording was lost. Jay recapped what I said with my good buddy Emperor Solar System. VIDEO DELETED
Michael Clayton
Here is another episode of film school. Ummmm . . . I sure like to ramble and I think I actually discuss this movie for about 10 seconds of the 2 minutes of actual screen time. I need to start preparing for this stuff. Apparently I can’t just sit down… Read More »Michael Clayton
Tales from the Computer Mine
I am a person who despite appearing outwardly chaotic, is very much a person of ritual. There are several websites I check daily: The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks Mustaches of the Nineteenth Century Horror Movie A Day However it is one website in particular that has made me think… Read More »Tales from the Computer Mine
Clearing My Head
I’ve been sick lately. Without going into too much detail, about the color and size of things that have been extracted from my body lately I will just say that I’ve never been one to let me body dictate to me my social engagements. That is unless my body just… Read More »Clearing My Head
Calm Down
I work with this guy that has a cousin that makes movies. He recently loaned me a copy of his cousin’s most recent epic. It is about vampire and a gang of high school kids killing the vampires. No matter what prism you look through, it just isn’t very good.… Read More »Calm Down
Darjeeling Redux
Here is the “completed” version of the Darjeeling Limited review. It is in two parts and is still way too long. The only real difference is Jay threw on some and some credits. There is hopefully 5 new reviews on the way. Principal photography has been completed on reviews for… Read More »Darjeeling Redux
The Hot Hand
I’m not a big gambler, but the last two wagers I have participated in, I have been the victor. This entry is really just a reminder to Jesse that in a little more than 2 months we will be sitting in theatre watching the movie below on his dime because… Read More »The Hot Hand
FTP Issues
So a guy I work with hosts my website on his server. This is a pretty good deal for me because he doesn’t charge me a plum nickel and I get pretty much all the space I could ever want. However, he recently moved my website to a different server.… Read More »FTP Issues
Prison Overcrowding
I don’t want to pile on, but what has been happening with the Iowa football team this season is a disgrace and an embarrassment to the state of Iowa. I’ve always thought that Ferentz was a great coach and I know that nobody can control 125 or so hormonal, young… Read More »Prison Overcrowding
