A shot of the Rhode Island state house that I took with my iPhone 4 from my hotel window at the Renaissance in Providence.

BUCKY BALLS - Buying these will dramatically increase your quality of life. (And loss of time.)

I took this photo of my nephew looking at his cousin during his first birthday party. I wanted to share it for a few reasons: Partly just because it’s a nice family photo and I wanted to show them off. But honestly, I don’t do much photography so I was proud I captured that moment. Kids move around constantly, so grabbing that second where they were actually making eye contact was a big win. And it’s the type of photo I think they will grow up and look back on. It’s just one of those images that makes everyone say, ‘aaaaahhhhh’ when they find it and then put it on a mantle somewhere. And eventually no one will remember who took it or when…

This remains my favorite movie poster of all time. Anyone else have a favorite they wanna share?

I was looking through some old photos and I found the one thing I miss about living in an apartment complex in a college town: the occasional thrill of watching people butt heads with the law (through my peephole with my iPhone, no less).

Check out my new Rock Band 3 axe. I can’t make it sing like the guitar yet. But I’m slowly learning.

As you may remember from a previous post, I recently ordered a Fisher Space Pen. (I like owning anything that makes me feel closer to being an astronaut.)

However, I dropped it at work and it broke. The clicking mechanism was shot. I noticed the packaging said it had a lifetime satisfaction guarantee. They provided an address in Nevada to send it to if it needs repair or replacement. So I did just that.

This morning I woke up to a package on my porch with my newly repaired pen and the above note. I must say, I’m very pleased with their prompt service. (Even if it was a bit of a let down to have the pen break only a few days into use.)

‘Earth Rise’

Taken by U.S. Astronaut Bill Anders on Apollo 8 (first mission to travel to the moon).

If it’s good enough for America’s astronauts, it’s good enough for me. Thanks to http://www.thespaceshop.com/ and the Kennedy Space Center for making this purchase possible  (which also included my NASA logo shirt).
