worked on the car today, scott helped. ^this^ is his jeep... he kept telling me to put the mower wheels on my car... jeeeez

Once again, it's been awhile since I've posted. Since the last post, I've been ridiculously busy with school, work, being married, and trying to fix the car. I did happen to setup ellermets.com, though :) It is running on one of my computers at home, and doesn't seem TOO slow. Our ISP just switched from Insight to Comcast, so I don't know exactly what to expect. Check it out if you want. Most of the functionality is just for me, though ;) I have full FTP access to all of my data, Remote Desktop, and access to the uTorrent WebUI. For everyone, I have some various links, including a pretty flash photo gallery.

Word.

Well, I'm actually halfway through an online test, so I'll get back at that.

incomplete series

back at it

I ordered a replacement LCD for my s70 today. I called Canon's parts service at 732-521-7230 (phone says the call only took 7 minutes), and it was only $52.25, including two day shipping.

As I would say, "YAY!"

These are just random snapshots from the last week, some with a little post-processing. I hope someone enjoys them.

an update? what?

This is a mack truck. It is a work truck at the metal scrap yard in north Urbana. I find it interesting that this giant rusty diesel truck has more to do with sustainability than many protesters or authors ever will.

I think it might wind up as part of a series of this sort that I'll be working on in the near future.

This was taken with my Canon S70, in all its shattered LCD glory.

night driving

This is a short (6 minute) film I made today as a break from studying for a boring test. It features "Night Driving" from Thrice's latest album, which was released today (October 16th, 2007).

I chose this song...
(a) because it fits so darn well
(b) to commemorate the release date
(c) since listening to the album inspired the ride
(d) all of the above

I think the answer is (d).
