You ain’t going to walk into this show thinking, Army SOF is like Call of Duty. Some freshman talking to the Army representatives today about wanting to be special ops. It was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen. “Physically unfit” is an understatement. Hey, maybe he knows something I…

[video] duncandavidson: One of the speakers at OnCopyright 2010 was Nick Bertke, also known as Pogo. He’s right on the edge of remix culture creating music from a myriad of little sounds found in film. Infringement, fair use, or something else? Certainly there’s nothing about what he does that detracts from the…

When I’m with runners, I smoke ‘em in the pool. When I’m with swimmers, I smoke ‘em on the track. I’m not the fastest swimmer, nor the fastest runner, but I sorely wish I could be. Sorely is a loaded word there. I guess I’m still not sure what exactly…

Throwing jelly marbles! I did that at my Junior prom too! There’s something just amazing about their texture that begs you to throw them around. Kinda like shooting boba out a straw…. I’m glad you had fun!
