How is this news?

Posted on February 20th, 2008 in Stories. 0 Comments

I promised more posts. I guess all I needed was some inspiration.

While google-newsing Obama, I came across this gem near the top of the stack: Obama’s Charmed Life is Over

Now I understand that this article is part of a regular “My Word” section meant to promote The John Gibson Show, but why is it sorted with the news and how many innocent people have become victims of this promotional tool?

“The Obamas’ have lived a charmed and gaffe-free life up in this campaign so far. But it’s over. Now Mr. and Mrs. Obama are under the microscope and every word is subject to scrutiny.”

…why FoxNews. why do you exist.

Clear Lake

Family took a couple of days at Clear Lake. It’s a pretty intense place filled with “lake people” who are usually insanely sunburnt old wrinkly people. We were pretty out of place but it was a good location to try things that we never done before (things we sucked at).

more photos of “golfing”, boating, floating, kayaking, and jetskiing

ZeroOne : “A Global Festival of Art on the Edge & the Thirteenth International Symposium of Electronic Art”

Went to see the Digital Kakejiku exhibit which was a large dynamic projection on the San Jose city rotunda.

“It is the combination of sensory perception and subconscious awareness. The changing scenery of the sunset, the “space” between haiku lines, the “space” between sounds, and the “space” between times – none are tangible, but all are part of experiencing “the moment”. When experiencing D-K, the things that you see and feel all come from you. If they didn’t exist in you, you would not be able to perceive them in the first place.”

pretty artsy-fartsy stuff. all i saw were some colors on a building. i got to play around with some long exposure settings and my little tripod.
