If you haven’t seen this, this is a video of me editing up an Intro for our show. Lots of fun to do…even at fast speeds!

Thanks to Scott Johnson for the inspiration that I got from his videos “Diary of a Cartoonist” videos at YouTube.

Check out this guys YouTube video. He says that he neither plays the drums or the piano. However you wouldn’t guess by watching this video.

Thanks to JT over at the GigCast for sending me a link to it.

James Kim and his family got stuck in snow on a mountain road in Oregon. James left after several days had past looking for help. He didn’t make it.

Rip James, thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

Looks like Mary Poppins was remade into a Horror!

I think that I had posted this last year, and there seems to be more on there now.

These are “classic” pictures of Kids and Santa…where the Kids are freaked out.

hey…The Santa on page 5 and 8 seems freaky to me. I like the poor sap that looks like he needs or has had a stiff drink.

Check it out.

Friends in Tech present, “Lucky the Reindeer and the Island of Misfit Geeks”

Santa is trying something different this year and is enlisting all the
elves to create a new MMORPG for all the girls and boys. Demos have
gotten tough reviews and there is a lot of work to be done before
Christmas.

Lucky the Reindeer and his friend and Elf, Herbert, Leave Santa’s
Workshop out of frustration because they feel like they don’t fit in
and are not included in the round of development. Heading out to look
for the one place that will accept a geek for who he really is, they
travel in search of the Island of Misfit Geeks.

Will they find the Island? Will Santa be good to his word and get a
good game out in time for Christmas?

Seems like there is a new service running around that puts bloggers in touch with people or organizations that provide products or services. What happens is I set up an account on Reviewme.com and I set up my blog as a potential reviewee, and classify it in a particular area (ie. Technology, or Gaming etc). They rate my blog with a money value and advertisers can come in and pick and choose what blogs they would like to offer money to to get those bloggers to review their product of service.

I found the service very easy to set up an account. Looks great, as long as I can write reviews, get paid, and be honest about what I found…I see this as a win-win. Very nice.

Even Pets can get into the act. I am still not sure how to get one of these on my cats..they wouldn’t sit still for me to put something on them.
