  • Random Monday Bloggage

    First off, my buddy John Taylor’s first major commissioned website project is now online. Check out the Posterman site if you’re into classic movie posters.

    Mari may have slacked a bit on the Friday Five action over the past month or so, but that’s okay. She’s a busy woman. Her Friday Fives are all caught up now, though!

    Last and possibly least, we have… this. I can’t think of anything truly clever to say about it, though. I’m counting on my faithful readers to make up for it in the quackbacks, okay?

  • Christmas List Items

    I’ve posted wishlists before, but usually just for media items. This time I want some hardware:

    I rely on music to balance my soul and maintain what semblance of sanity I possess. When my current set of cans finally give up the ghost, I want to replace them with a pair of these. Oh yeah.

    I love taking pictures, but my 35mm camera doesn’t get much mileage. I admit it: I’m cheap and lazy, so buying rolls of film, getting them developed and scanning the results into the computer is just not my thing. I want a decent digital camera. Something like, say, the Olympus D150-Z or the Kodak LS420 or the Canon Powershot Digital Elph S230… a decent entry-level sub-$300 digital camera. (I’m open to suggestions, actually. All the websites in the world can’t really tell me exactly what to get.) Thank you, dpreview.com.

    I’d ask for a portable music device, but so far none of them support Ogg Vorbis. Maybe next year…
