White devil

On an unrelated note: I think this is funny. If it wasn't for the racial overtones undertones I think this would be a sweet super-hero and/or villain name. "White Devil to the rescue!"

Found on Myspace

As the value of the written word continues to decline in favor of easily consumable images/video, those of us who cherish words will find more and more soul-crushing disappointment humor in the failure of people to construct legible thoughts with words.

Anyone remember Myspace? Me neither. But it turns out it still exists and is populated with neanderthals. Here is a "3 year plan" that I found on some guy's "blog". You're welcome.

So I was talkin with some friends the other day about our 3 year plans and some goals we wanted to accomplish and heres some things that i can remember wanting.
This year: -Finish paying off my truck.  -Chop my 75' Harley, -Buy a new dirtbike, -manage not to kill anyone that im in charge of on my helicopter crew, Spend some quality time with my pops, -Pay off credit cards, -dont have a baby, -Complete Squad Leader Academy in Sacramento, -travel to Brazil.
Next Year: - Move to Ventura or San Diego and find a squad leader position on a hotshot crew, - Fix up my 47' Harley, -Save a bunch of money to buy house, -finish college and get my fire degree, -finally finish my EMT class, Complete Engine Academy, -travel to China, -dont have a baby.
Year Three: -Get job with Cal Fire or LA County Fire( unless my current dept. changes its ways), -Save money for house, -Go to Paramedic School, -Buy a Boat, -Find a baby mama, -have a baby, -buy a house near beach.
thats alot of stuff but if i can accomplish most of these goals and keep out of trouble i should be sittin pretty good.

Sittin' pretty bro.

Rex Goliath 47 Pound Rooster

I buy this wine solely because of the name. It's actually pretty good.

Words that haunt me

I've been realizing that several times a week, sometime every day, different phrases pass through my brain. These are words and phrases that were spoken to me that never leave me. I just think of them all the time. I don't dwell on them. But they're connected to memories (illustrated by their accompanying photographs) that I can't forget. They come, I think of them for several seconds and then they leave and echo back several times before leaving entirely. I'm going to post them as I think of them. This one I've thought of every single week for the last 3 or 4 years.

The good things

The next question is "what are the good things?"

The best of the last couple weeks

Here's what I've been up to recently.[gallery link="file" columns="5"]

Not really sure

This image had a vague direction at the beginning but I lost it when the snail showed up.

Please don't!

Go SLO

There are even people

Just thinking.

So then...

I look through the images that I take and then somehow, from somewhere, decide which words to put with them. The images inspire words, invoke memories and emotions in the viewer. But as the author, I have the unique ability to apply my own thoughts, words, memories and impressions to the image which then "trump", if you will, the viewers own ideas about the picture. So whatever you thought the purpose or the "point" of the image was before: that's now gone because I've imposed my own words on the picture.[gallery link="file"]
