    • Last Den of Sin Here are a few shots from Friday night. Everything was shot without flash -- I had my flash with me, but never got around to putting it on the camera. I haven't been able to go completely flash-free at the club in _years_...no matter how I pushed my D70s, it just couldn't quite handle the low light of a goth club. The D7000, though, doesn't even pause. This is fun. ➡

    • Pimp my A95 In the end, much amusement was had, and my little A95 went through a lot of quite silly experiments. This is the kind of stuff that happens on a slow day in a camera shop. Can't say that I'm complaining. ➡

    • Weird 'I' before 'E', except after 'C'. And unless the word is 'weird'. Why is that? I constantly get it wrong, and it drives me up the wall. ➡
    • Happy Birthday Macintosh! I'm a bit late to the party on this one, unfortunately, but the Macintosh turned 21 years old today. Even better, there's one heck of a birthday present to the Mac community out on the 'net now: the long-lost video of the original introduction of the Mac by Steve Jobs. ➡

    • Orkut Much of the buzz this past week that I utterly and completely ignored has been about Orkut, Google's entry into the social networking trend. I've never been too hot about these things — they seem kind of silly, reducing friendships and acquaintances to the level of Pokemon characters (collect the whole set!). ➡

    • Happy B-day Mac On this day in 1984, the first Mac went on sale. ➡
    • Over my head I'm having a hell of a time getting Image::Magick (a command-line set of Unix tools for manipulating graphics) installed and working on my system so that MovableType can see it. Been banging my head against this for most of the last two days, without much success so far. ➡

    • Enterprise: Dear Doctor Never having watched Quantum Leap very often, I'm not overly familiar with Scott Bakula's acting, and this was one of the first times I really thought I got to see more than a variation of the 'excited kid out playing in the universe' that Archer has been so far (something I chalk up a bit more to the writers than to Bakula's performances as yet). ➡
    • Flaming down Broadway I hadn't known this before, never having seen the Torch relay before, but it's not done with one runner from start to finish through each town. Rather, they have multiple runners, each one carrying a torch for a short distance, at the end of which the flame is passed on to the next runner with their own torch for the next leg. ➡
    • Karl got fat! Er…phat? Um… This is one of those things that mom would kill me for admitting, but I've occasionally thought that getting a motorcycle would be a lot of fun. ➡
