Day 15! Before I start with an explanation of today’s video I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who has been reading/watching for these last 15 days. It’s really cool to share something like this with people. And equally as cool to know that I am not just talking to myself when I make these videos. Today is the halfway mark and I … Continue reading Kicking Ass & Taking Names
I’m famous, y’all! Check it out, I posted a Youtube video nearly 4 years ago as a response to something by a guy named MadV. MadV is a Youtube personality who does a mixture of magic tricks and inspirational, global rallying videos. Since posting the video on my (former) channel, it has been used in two different videos including a compilation video by MadV and … Continue reading Be Seen
Our fearful trip is done! January 22nd, 2010, was a sad day for television. It marked the first time in 16 years that Conan O’Brien would not be gracing the screens of late night television. Sadder still was that I was in England and unable to watch him on TV for his final weeks. By some miracle the NBC website actually allowed international access to … Continue reading O Conan, My Conan…
There are some things in life that are so ingrained in your brain that you take them for granted. Where did they come from? Who is responsible for them? Was there ever a time before they existed? You probably think I’m about to get really deep now, but that’s just not my style. Yesterday I watched the movie Bye Bye Birdie. A movie most people … Continue reading Bye Bye Birdie
I’m waiting for the train from York to London. There are a good number of people on the platform with me. Our train is due at 16:34; it is now 16:15. A train pulls up, a load of people get on, I sort of wonder if this is my train. I look at the departures board and it still says “London 16:34 on time” – … Continue reading Homeward Bound [December 7-8, 2009]
I got a lovely going away present from my family in the form of an iPod Shuffle. It’s one of those new Shuffles, those extremely tiny, no controls on the actual iPod, iPods. It’s no bigger than my pinky finger but it holds about 1000 songs. I take it to work with me so we can listen to music in the shop, and for the … Continue reading Earbuds & iPods
For our birthdays this year, Ron and I decided not to buy each other anything, considering we were both moving over the ocean soon and adding to the luggage just didn’t seem like a good idea. So, instead, I bought Ron a 2-4 for his birthday celebration back in Canada and he (and Darrell) gave me the promise of something awesome once we actually got … Continue reading We Got Annie…Tickets
The old plan of chili for dinner has been cancelled, the new plan is to have a night out in Leeds! And Ron, Darrell, and I all work together tomorrow. Reflection (from October 5) – Leeds was madness! We missed 2 trains within 5 minutes. Drank in the train station bar for 30 minutes while we waited for the next train. Met a kid named … Continue reading New Plan [October 1, 2009]
(With Ron) At a bar called The Maltings with a live band playing Bob Dylan music. Got there at closing time (11 PM). There is a dog here (Lab?Retriever?) He is very shaggy, very blonde, very old, very big, and very cute. He is sleeping at Ron’s feet. It is 2:20 AM and I am in bed at Jennie’s house. We just watched a movie … Continue reading One Night; In and Out [September 28, 2009]
