This song is really mainstream here in Portland. But I have found it so addicting. And it makes me really giddy and happy. I want to jump around like a 5 year old with her pink frilly princess dress on swinging it about just giggling. Dreaming about how I'm not going to work no damn office job when I get older. And marry myself a model and then OD ( Read more... )

Banksy has hit New Orleans for the third anniversary of Katrina. So any of you New Orleans peeps can get a chance go check them out and take pics do so now. There is someone named Grey Ghost in New Orleans painting over his stuff. If you know who this person is take his/her paints away from them immediately.

I want to do this REALLY bad. We don't have a Lombard St. but we do have a Mt. Tabor in Portland.



I'm now obsessing over my K.I.T.T. Knightrider big wheel I had when I was 9. I can't even find photos of one online now. One of the guys at my work brought in 2 new high tech big wheels for me and another girl to race at work. These even have handle ( Read more... )

I took a Substance Abuse & Use class while in college. It was actually a very good class. My favorite topic was the history of drugs and how Sears use to sell Heroin kits. Or, the ad for Cocarettes is always classic.

Trying to post an entry here on LJ with embedded media and such. But LJ doesn't seem to like the LJ cut and embed more than one media thingy.

I'll most likely get kicked out for ( Read more... )

My B-day weekend was fun. I did so much I don't even know where to start. I purchased a Nikon D80 for my b-day present this year. And I take that camera out as much as I can. My new addiction is HDR photography. (High Dynamic Range). It is so much fun. It makes the pics you take look like the graphics for a lot of new computer animated films or ( Read more... )

The new popular trend is a man and his beatbox. Or insert woman where man is in previous line.

Well, it's not new, but becoming big again. There are a few of these one "man" bands here in Portland. One of them is the man called Panther. Even if you don't enjoy electronic music, this video rocks. You have to watch it all the way through to the end to ( Read more... )

I'm sure everyone knows Ingmar Bergman died. He lived a long life. And left behind some wonderful, influential films. My favorite Bergman film I had the pleasure of watching is The Virgin Spring-- being raised in a Roman Catholic environment most likely helps.

I took this pic a week ago. The bee is so cute. He looks kind of furry. But I don't think a bee would make a good pet. I'm going to get stung one day with all these botanical shots I'm doing. Especially as close as I'm getting to bees and spiders.  (The original photo is below.)
