Listen to the voice on the wall
We had a very productive afternoon, people at dozens of newspapers sitting around staring at a voice coming from the wall. I dunno conference calls always seem less than helpful.
6 in a row
On Saturday I went down to the plains to shoot Auburn whoop up on Alabama again. I guess buying the most expensive coach around still can’t get a win for Alabama. I don’t really pull for one team over another, but I do think that the Bama fans tend to be more obnoxious so I am not heartbroken that they were crushed again. I’ll update with more photos later.

This is a test post from 
, a fancy photo sharing thing.
contact
i tried dialing-but couldn’t find the people I needed to talk to, Imagine that.
Chopper
A random helicopter self portrait, I think I have about a dozen pictures of me near helicopters, I dunno why-I guess it is the cool big machinery factor -but really it doesn’t make much sense.
Also, yes I realize i have a creepy neck roll thing and some oddly squinty eyes, going on-I don’t know why-but I have had this picture sitting around for a whole and needed to toss it up.
Holiday Working in the photo dept
The joys of being he lowest ranking person on the totem pole here. Here is where I am spending Thanksgiving, my home away from home. Ok so not a big a deal as people make it out to be-but just wanted to say hey to family and friends on Thanksgiving, wish I could be there eating your turkey, cranberry sauce in a can and assorted casseroles.
But WOO! for holiday pay, now off to make some pictures.
Breaking out Santa before Turkey Day
Party foul all of you corporate types who insist on starting the Christmas season in early November. I took this picture a while back but it just made me feel odd to shoot Christmas stuff in short sleeves before thanksgiving while everyone was hurrying to toss the remnants of Halloween pumpkins in the garbage. I know this isn’t a terribly original rant-its just weird that i have to listen to Christmas carols being pumped through the sound system downtown before Thanksgiving, let alone the start of December. So there. And here’s a bizarre looking Santa photo with some wired color pulsing or shift or something.
Newsroom Thanksgiving Lunch: My Plate
Normally I eat relatively sanely-but hand me a small Styrofoam plate, plastic utensils and point me at a buffet line filled with comfort foods-a one way ticket to the house of pain
The food was good-but alas I was not. Here is my first of three plates-but the last one was all desert- What can I say I am a hungry boy -I wonder how many hours on the treadmill this will take to break even? Too many I guess.
Andy and his Quickpod
Andy came in the other day very excited about his new photo toy, the Quickpod.
I tried to no avail to convince him that my arm works just as well, but he persisted. I wonder what the leverage would be trying to hold up a 1D and a 16-35. I better start lifting weights.
Who knew that the market for self portrait aids was so lucrative?
Wait. . . What. . . Where did Fall come from?
So I left for my little vacation last week to visit Nanook of the North.(or maybye it was just elisha is South Dakota) I expected to encounter wind driven snow walk around on crusty permarost and be stuck inside all weekend. In fact the mecrury hovered in the 60s and I walked around in a t-shirt. Here I land in Birmingham and begin my drive back and its like I was Dorothy landing in Oz. Sorry I couldn’t help it, after so many ha, you’re from Kansas, where is Toto, you’re not in Kansas anymore jokes, I couldn’t leave that softball hanging out there. Wham the color reaches out and smacks you in the eyes. . . technicolor. I had seem a few trees change but now everyhting was a different hue.
ok ok, so now I got you hooked by my spectuacular writing go click to see the rest of the post and the purty pictures
