I Know Someone Famous
October 7th, 2008 
Seth Alright, maybe not famous YET, but a photographer at the station is getting some recognition for a film he’s working on. Neil Kellen is putting together a movie called ‘Abaddon’. He’s decided to make his entire production “open-source”, getting input, donations, script help, etc from the community. It’s a concept that got him some attention [...]
Summer Movies Shifting to Fall Games
September 18th, 2008 Seth As the summer movie season seems to be wrapping up, I thought about what a good summer it was. There were several that I will probably want to catch again in the $3 theater, since it’ll be the last time to see them on a big screen. Tropic Thunder, Pineapple Express, Iron Man, Hulk, Mamma [...]
Homework Again
September 17th, 2008 Seth I’m back into an organized, scheduled learning mode for the first time since college, and I’m having MUCH more fun doing it. I’ve decided I want to learn Japanese. It was hard remembering exactly why I started getting interested in it. My teacher said many of her students become interested in it after watching ‘anime’. [...]
Flickr, and Its Freedoms
August 27th, 2008 Seth I’ve really started to like more and more of Jonathan Coulton’s work as I listen to more. In his "Thing a Week" project, one of his songs became a video production when he said he learned he could use Flickr images with no sort of legal ramifications. Here is Jonathan Coulton’s "Flickr":
Tom Cruise Crazy
August 19th, 2008 Seth I heard about Jonathan Coulton after he did the bizarre finale of the game Portal, so I recently picked up some of his stuff, which I was surprised to see was a lot! I think he’s very witty, and a talented, and silly, lyricist. The song I’m attaching for some reason reminds me a little [...]
Braid: Wow
August 8th, 2008 Seth I downloaded the demo for a few Xbox Live Arcade games last night, and started playing one that I bought as soon as I finished the demo. It’s called Braid, and it’s a cross between a Mario game, a Prince of Persia game and an impressionist painting. Mario in that it’s a side-scroller, with jumping [...]
Viva Piñata: Believe
August 1st, 2008 Seth If you’re a Halo 3 fan, you’re gonna get this joke. If you’re not, I attached the original Halo 3 add that this clip is spoofing below. I don’t know if it’s official or just fan-made (my suspicion is fan-made, because they used the Viva Piñata McDonald’s toys), but either way it’s great. ..and [...]
Used, Even "Just a Little", Is Still, by Definition, USED
July 29th, 2008 Seth I was at an east side Gamestop a few days ago, and saw that the Spider-Man: Friend or Foe game had recently dropped to $20. EXCELLENT. So, I went to the counter to buy it. The guy then went to the wall rack, got the game case, then got the disc out of a drawer [...]
