True story: A police officer once pulled me over (sirens and all) for doing a wheelie on my bicycle. My argument: "But I'm really good at it."

Compatability.
i have both the apple quicktake and the canon 1200mm wiki links open in my browser, and i'm wondering if I can adapt the two.

Apple iPad was released today
Link. Seems kinda useless to me, but we'll see.
In short:
I won't bother talking about it 'cause anyone who cares likely knows about it.
Update: I think Scott Adams had a good blurb about it.

Idea
I haven't put up anything that I've made since about September, but here's pretty much the best self-portrait I've done:
Unsure what lightbulb is trying to tell me
Less creepy than this one. Hey, what's red and smells like blue paint? Red paint.

A bike video from the past (and more BS!)
I remember back in the day before youtube was bought by google, and google video was the "sh*t" or something. It rescaled to fit you window, wow! I was stalking myself and came upon this video posted from way back when. This is when we were all hardcore bikers instead of washed up old dudes. And back when I listened to hardcore stuff like Slipknot and Corb Lund.
Somewhere I've got tons of these little videos... hoping to make some cyclocross videos and such this summer. But photos are easier.
Speaking of old photos, I found this one:
Despite some over exposure (which was needed so the foreground wasn't underexposed) this is an awesome picture I took. It's a good example of the adage that your your camera doesn't matter, and composition is #1. This was one of those 1st gen Powershots which we all loved so much (all 4 or 5 of them, personally.) The only problem with them is that they were fragile, which is why I got the indestructible d10: world's best camera.

Winter bike photo thing
I've been really enjoying rockin' the winter gear and going out to freeze my toes lately on ye olde bicycle. When it's not too cold I bring my favorite little camera and snap some shots. Here's what yesterday's bike ride produced:
I liked the road-closed repetition here.
Carbon-ny. I kinda can't wait for the trails this year, even colourful concrete is lame.
Edmonton's version of "flat-tire cactus spikes."
Cranes! Fences! Sunset! Some post-processing!
Indeed. We don't need 'em.
I think one of those graffiti thugs put this here as irony. Or something.

From Don's journal
"january 15: lots of times when i can't find where i put my glasses or when i've lost something i have a weird initial impulse to google it."
-Don's Journal
He also just made snowglobes, which I ever so want. Seriously, how cool is that? Snowglobes! While other internets merchandise t-shirts, mugs, stickers, prints, etc. He has snowglobes.
I'm also really stoked for chapter 3 of "Everything will be Okay" as the first two DVDs are my very favorite DVDs that I own. It's too bad Don Hertzfeldt doesn't come to Edmonton to show his stuff.

Bicycling blog
I wanted to give a quick word about my favorite blog on the internet (where else?): Drunk Cyclist. They're a bunch of cool honest riders. Good writing, good images, reading it always makes me want to go for a ride. They just got a new girl writer, Judi, who's apparently an ex-junkie and a current awesome rider. Another one of their writers is a bike-bum in law school. The owner from Cranky's introduced me to this site a while back.. I think this bike season I'm gonna put a lot more effort into not putting effort into things, and just spend some good quality time in the saddle.
Little does she know, this girl helped me break my radial head (near wrist), about an hour after I snapped my scaphoid (inside wrist) in half. A bike left on the trail right around a steep corner is never a good idea. But that was years ago, haha. This picture, however, makes me wanna hit the mountains.
