Selfie Project 2016

2016 Selfie

This was my big art project for last year — a selfie a day. I’m not sure it worked out very well. Someone told me that it should’ve been in the same place every day. As you can see, I did it wherever and whenever. I missed days. I used cameras attached to computers from my iPhone to my iPad mini to my laptop. It was ridiculous.

You can see the whole thing on my Flickr album.

“And I put aluminum foil on all my windows.” “To keep out the light?” “No, to keep them clean, only it doesn’t work.”

Link of the Day [9.13.12]

I need to move the prior blog posts moving. Yet, I don’t have anything to say. I could go on and on and on about the magical season the Baltimore Orioles are in the midst of, but just go watch ’em is all I want to say. I could complain about work, but I’m done there for now.

Who knows? Not me. I have nothing to say.

Here’s a link of the day.

Hmmmm. Yummo. Maybe I should start cooking again for blog fodder…

Quote of the Day [2.14.11]

[W]ithout all these things I can do
Without your love I won't make it throughBut you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can doThe Clash, "Train In Vain"
Every punks plaintive wail for love. That's me!

The Academy has gone to 10 Best Picture nominees instead of the usual 5. Isn’t 10 too much to choose from? And will it have even more suckier films to choose?

The Academy should just take a page from the Globes and have different categories for Best Picture. Best Picture for Drama. Best Picture for Comedy. Best Picture for Impenetrable Foreign Film. Best Picture for Will Ferrell Comedies. Best Picture for Lame Action Movies. Best Picture for Non-lame Action Movies. Such and such.

This will make creating the spreadsheet for BrowserMetrics Annual Oscar Pool a little bit more inconvenient.

Is 10 too much? I think 7 would’ve been ideal.

“Joe, Matthew is making me see Vietnam in the foyer!”

If the rumors are true, then Lance Armstrong might race in Le Tour next year. This is the perfect way to destroy our memories of his complete dominance by coming out of a three year retirement and trying to win at one of the toughest endurance trials known to man.

It’s as if Rocky Balboa tried to make a come back… Err… It’s as if Jim Palmer tried to make a come back… Umm… Or Brett Favre… Oh.

Well, it would be a disappointment to see him in anything but the maillot jaune.

“Do I hear the plaintive cry of the crested North American quitter? Quit-WHO! Quit-WHO!”

If it’s September, then it must be that time of year that the Baltimore Orioles baseball team pack it up and head south for the winter. Their record recedes from .500 mark quicker than the falling leaf.

Have they won any game this month? Will they win any?

M A R G E texted me earlier this week that tickets are cheap. They should just give tickets away or at least do a $0.10 beer night or at least $1.00 adjusted for inflation. They would fill that park up with drunks and maybe one would be crazy enough to streak across the infield and hump the second base umpire’s leg.

Well, with the cheap tickets, we should catch at least one more game. Join me won’t you?
