Cover of the Year (As far as I’m concerned)

Posted by admin on 21st May 2009 in Music, Podcast

Ok I know that I promised that I wouldn’t do anymore videos until I posted something interesting to read, but I couldn’t help it. I was listening to Coverville Podcast Episode 578 and I came across the cover of Beyonce’s Single Ladies. I don’t know how many of you have heard the original; I’m not a huge fan but the song is catchy. I don’t know what I can say more about this, you’ll just have to listen to it.

L’attacco di Ligabue

Posted by admin on 12th May 2009 in Music

As many of you know I lived in Italy for a couple years as a missionary for my church. I am also a huge music buff, and while I was there I was able to find some of the better Italian music. One of my all time favorites is named Ligabue. The best way to explain him is that he is the Bruce Springsteen of Italy. I know that most of you will not understand the words to the song, but give the music and the vibe a chance. I hope that you’ll enjoy this.

Cheers,

I thought that my first post back should have had some meat to it, yet I find myself wanting to just watch this video all day.

Watch and Enjoy.

Lifestyles of the busy

Posted by admin on 3rd May 2009 in About Me

OK, so life has been throwing me one curve ball after another. So back soon after my last posting I submitted applications for UNC and NCSU. Both informed me that my applications were lacking information for acceptance, and that I needed to add the necessary information and resubmit them. That gave me a total of 3 days to complete the applications and turn them back in. The time needed to complete the applications was about a week. Life and it’s time constrictions are a pain.

About a week later I realized that since I wouldn’t be attending school this year that I really need to enter the job market. So after 2 weeks of diligently searching for a job…. I landed one. I am now currently the IS manager for a newspaper in East Carolina. About 2 weeks into this new job I get a call from Jane telling me that she isn’t feeling well and that she wants me to go with her to the Urgent Care clinic. Long story short, I’m gonna be a Father. I was very excited, and Jane was shocked at first but now can’t wait to have this little baby to play with.

I’ve gotten many e-mails asking when then next Episode of our podcast will be and until life starts calming down a bit, I have no clue. Jane and I have been talking about starting it back up again, so it will most likely be sooner than later. This has been my life for the passed two months, I can’t wait to see what life will choose to throw my way next. I’m hoping for a lot of money, unfortunately life doesn’t work that way.

Until next time,

Vampire Weekend Video Attack

Posted by admin on 10th February 2009 in Music, Television

OK, so I heard about this band back at the end of 2007, and I have been in love with them ever since. This video happens to be the best version of my favorite song. It took me about 15 minutes to find this video cause NBC and SNL have been butt heads and not permitted anyone from sharing their stuff. Lame I know, but who cares? Here are Vampire Weekend singing M79.

Watch and Enjoy.

When Movies Collide

Posted by admin on 8th February 2009 in Misc., Movies, Television

I love it when mash-ups occur. When two songs or other forms of media mash together to create a new spectacular form of art. Well this is my new favorite. Today’s mash-up is what you get when you cross Toy Story with The Dark Knight.

Watch and enjoy.

Hee hee. Too Funny.

Back Now

Posted by admin on 10th January 2009 in About Me, Holidays

Ok, so it’s time to catch all of you, my most faithful readers, up on what has happened over the last while.

The week before Thanksgiving, Jane and I get word that Jane’s work wants her to start up a new program out in the North Carolina office. After about 2 weeks of school, stress, and sleepless nights all moving arrangements have been completed. Jane finishes her last classes of her college career, while I finish out my 4th semester.

After ever more stress, and planning, I quit my job in California, and focus all of my remaining energy in packing the house for the move. Jane’s, perfectly health, car moves out to NC… more on this later. Our Relo-cubes arrive, and we pack all our worldly possessions into 2 6×7x8 Relo-cubes, rather than 3, which saved us about $1,500. Both Jane and I get sick, and the best Christmas in the last 8 years happens… more on this Christmas later.

Jane, Lily, Stella, and I hop a couple of plans (First Class style) to NC. Jane’s car arrives, with a broken Drive Shaft, that the auto transport company refuses to take responsibility for. Other than taking Jane’s car in for repair, we had nothing to do out here for the first 3 days, until our Relo-cubes arrived, then we got hooked up with our HD Dish, and our 7mbps TWCable. Which brings me back to sitting here, enjoying the HD programming, and surfing fast and wire-free.

First thoughts of living out here in North Carolina:

- It feels like when you get DVR for the first time, and you wonder how you ever lived without it. I’m wondering why I didn’t decide to move out here earlier in life.

Well enough for now more later including a podcast.,

Cheers,
