Is this the end of film? Kodak has discontinued kodachrome film, what is probably considered the greatest of all color films ever produced. I think I need to get a bunch of rolls before it disappears, I may even still have a roll in the fridge. I hadn’t used it in years, mostly due to the fact I shoot mostly b/w film (‘everything looks worse in black and white’) and my switch to digital, then there was the fact that not many labs process it, I would use ectachrome and process it myself which is not possible with kodachrome. It’s a sad day for photography.

So yesterday would have been my father’s birthday. I had planned to post then but I had a pretty FU day.

OK, well you saw the first one but I thought it wasn’t clear enough and his hair was hard to see so here he is again, bigger and with his VP,  I mean his TP!

Q: How can you tell when Obama is lying?

A: His teleprompter is on!

So Miss California is said to have lost the Miss USA crown because of comments she made about homosexual marriage. Her comments are considered controversial because she thought marriage should be between a man and a woman. Why should this be controversial? It is her opinion.

OK, this part may get me in trouble with some of the homosexuals that I know or have known. I’m sure you are wondering what my thoughts on gay marriage. Well to be frank, I don’t care either way. I think that gays should get the benefits of marriage, and if they make gay marriage legal then I’m fine with that, and if they don’t I’m fine with that too.

I guess I have no real investment in any of it, and homosexuals are not helping themselves with their actions. I find it hilarious that in California, gays are all up in arms that the gay marriage amendment failed. Really? what did you think would happen? To get Obama in the White House you needed to get the black and hispanic vote, neither of which would vote yes to gay marriage. You sabotaged yourselves, you have no call to be angry except at yourselves. Blaming the mormons or the churches or people that gave donations to groups fighting the amendment doesn’t help your cause. It also shows that I have seen no protests against muslims, another block of voters that would definitely vote against gay marriage but would also fight back (look towards the UK if you don’t believe it)! I posted a photo of a gay marriage in Iran a while back, as I said then, grow a pair.

So was Miss California supposed to lie to win the crown? I applaud her for sticking by her beliefs and not buckling in to liberal pressure, especially being from California, the bastion of liberal PC bullshit. As for prickz hilton, how would he feel if he was expressing him opinion and he was ridiculed like he has done to her (and to all the others with similar beliefs)? Not that it would happen in liberal California, where they think that only their opinions count. But tell you what prickz, why don’t you go to Iran or Saudi Arabia or Egypt and spread your beliefs that anyone against gay marriage is a Cunt! You won’t last long, but I’ll have more respect for you, and take Jeanne Garofalo with you OK. Until then Fuck Off And Die.

The pereiraville webcams are up and running again, at least the first two. I’ll be working to get the other two up and running soon.

(editor’s note: it seems I posted these in reverse order so it appears the crowd is getting smaller rather than larger; sorry about that.)

Stupidest thing heard at the teaparty,

Woman walking by asks me - what’s going on?
Sherlock - Protest against the stimulus spending bill!
Woman dumbfounded - why? it’s free money!
S - someone has to pay for it, who do you think that will be?
W -

she walked away without responding.

The name on the caller ID was unfamiliar but that’s not unusual for my work phone, most of the calls I receive come from other employees and not clients.

sherlock - my department, can I help you?
caller - Hi, sherlock, it’s Chris Muir.

Holy cow Chris Muir called me! I had emailed him earlier and he was nice enough to call me back with a reply, that’s so cool! Of course now WB is envious, but he did comment on her site today.

Happy Birthday Sherlock!

30 seconds @ f11 with an Cokin 89b filter, I was shooting into the light and got lens flares.

Filter removed, 1/4 seconds @ f5.6

It’s WB’s birthday.

It’s also my brother Tony’s birthday.

Happy birthday to both, I hope you have a good day.

It’s my mom’s birthday, Happy Birthday. I won’t post a picture cause she would hate it.

A preview of things to come?

REICH: …”I am concerned, as I’m sure many of you are, that these jobs not simply go to high-skilled people who are already professionals or to white male construction workers…I have nothing against white male construction workers, I’m just saying there are other people who have needs as well.”
