Mark Buehrle pitches a perfect game, and of course, it’s the game I’d thought about watching as my last Sox game before we leave Chicago. I’m going to be kicking myself for years.
First video project on the new Vista PC. I did love my hand-me-down Powerbook while it lasted (thx Matt), but I just couldn’t justify the cost of replacing it with another Mac. I already miss rebooting monthly instead of daily.
Wow, Sony Vegas is surprisingly intuitive. I’ve hit a couple stumbling blocks so far (can’t get DivX to encode), but for a pro editing suite, the learning curve is pretty gentle.
Music (so to speak): Biosphere, “As the Sun Kissed the Horizon”
I made it onto the CBS big screen! (that’s me in the back with the camera up to my face)
