What Do You Do Again?

People, even people i have known for years, don't get what I do for a living. Its not that hard to understand. I build websites; I am considered to be a Software Applications Developer by my employer. But mostly I just play around with expensive electronics and build silly toys for grown-ups. I am useless in any Armageddeon-type scenarios. But until then, I will be working for Jumpcut, a little startup that got slurped by Yahoo, Inc. in San Francisco. Jumpcut is an online video editor, and after working for them for the last 3 or 4 months I have finally used it for the first time and here's my first film (I have been slammed with actual work and unable to play around with our own toys - sad). The opportunity came when Karen threw Lunch2.0 at our warehouse space, a chance for industry mucky mucks to assemble the collective brain trust and share knowledge in the ivory tower of venture capital and vesting stock options. So here it is, my editorial debut.

Dramatic Chipmunk

Zeitgeist, the Movie

A co- uh... conspirator at work turned me onto this amazing film, "Zeitgeist". It links the Bible, astrology, the precession of the equinoxes and 26,000 year cycles, the Pope's hat (the shape of a fish sideways - a pagan astrological symbolism for the current age, Pisces), the coming age of Aquarius, the pyramids in Egypt, the unconstitutional and fraudulent Federal Reserve Bank, Nazi concentration camps, 9-11, and more. Don't worry, the first four minutes of the movie has no video, just audio. Do not adjust your set.

Group Therapy: Me 'n Gene Simmons

My therapist is out of town this week so i'll put this out there to all ya'll; you've always been there when i've needed you in the past.

What does it mean when Gene Simmons comes to you in a dream and asks you to be Kiss' publicist on their next tour and you negotiate a salary of $150,000, climb on the tour bus and look down and realize that you are an African-American man in his late 30's wearing khaki slacks.

R. Kelly vs. Wierd Al

If you were one of the people who got as much joy out of R Kelly's epic "Trapped in the Closet", you might think this parody is pretty funny. I actually think R Kelly's version is (unintentionally) funnier:
