Pandora's Bottle

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 21:15:40 -0800

On my local public radio station they keep playing an ad that contains the phrase ‘You really popped the cork on Pandora’s box.’

This does not make me want to give them money.

This makes me want to KILL.

I guess there is no hope…

I feel like building this might be a worthwhile use of my time.

That shady lady, Kiki Stockhammer, played with her Star Trek themed band at TWiT live at MacWorld.

I have MANY stories about these NewTek people. I used to work with them, and have built many a VideoToaster in my day.

Long live Apple. Long live Final Cut Pro.

“Amiga Video Toaster 2.0 Demo from Newtek”

I have no affection for this horrible thing. In, school my video class was the very last one that had to actually try to negotiate this dinosaur. The next class got Avid DV Xpress.

Here’s another demo tape from 1994 featuring Video Toaster evangelists (“Toaster Punks”) Wil Wheaton, Penn Jillette, and Tony Hawk.

The Video Toaster is responsible for what would become the Kurosawa wipe transition of its time: the “Sexy Lady Pulls Down Window Shade”.

Further evidence that my wife’s people are both crazy and crazy awesome.

If you are on a curling team from Norway, you might as well just wear these pants. I support them.

Apparently a guy on the Norweigan curling team thought these pants were neat, and got the other guys on the team to buy them. And then they decided they were their uniform pants. BRAVO.

Taken with my iPhone in a dark bar. Stop complaining. Be glad you can see anything at all.

Yet another reblog of myself.

This sweater is one of my favorite things. Sadly, it is way too big for me. I hope it stays that way forever.

sweaterdump:

My friend Jon, modeling a sweater my wife made for me. The sweater is big enough to put on over my coat. I love it, even though I may never be big enough to wear it.

Grandaddy - “Now It’s On” (2003)

Amazing band. That I always thought sounded a little like The Alan Parsons Project.

I already am looking like a lesser Hutt, so that was pretty much my plan too.

Good luck Tony.

It has been a while since I have posted any music here. Surprise, it is not bluegrass this time. It is something even whiter - Radiohead and Dave Brubeck.

Jason Lytle played a little hometown show last night in Modesto. His first time back since moving to Montana.

Neil Jackson (Built Like Alaska) opened the show with few songs. Lytle’s portion of the show consisted of him trying to remember the lyrics to Grandaddy songs and resisting the urge to punch the very drunk hipster in the front row yelling ‘Crystal Lake’ over and over.

It was a great last minute show. Thanks to him and everyone that came out for it.

Here is Lytle singing ‘Brand New Sun’ - http://vidly.com/bIKs
