Review of Lenny

Films that were made in the early part of the 1970s in America sometimes feel like they were part of an exclusive club. The confusion created by the defunct production code (which ended in 1968) and the flailing MPAA rating system which didn’t get instituted in...

Excuses Excuses Excuses (no pics)

Sorry for the lack of updates to my travelblog recently. Its not for lack of content.. I’ve hit a road block with my picture uploading strategy in that I can’t add anymore photosets to flickr until I upgrade to a pro account.. which is not that expensive...

Sacramento Spin (vids) (pics)

In San Jose Sans Photoshop

My main excuse for not updating my travelblog recently has been the lack of Photoshop, which I should be getting soon, but also I’ve been a bit lazy in general not in the mood for finding a “wifi hotspot”. I’m in the South Bay visiting Nick and...
