Where I work.

My office is on the 18th floor. Every couple of months, two Latino dudes hanging from ropes and what looks like seats made out of a 2 x 4 come swinging by my window. I wonder if they are legal? I wonder if they get hazard pay? I wonder if they have cojones of steel? I wonder if they write home about the crazy ass work that white men pay them to do?

Summer Deluxe.

Summer Deluxe.

Layin' in bed. Just out of the shower. Still a little drippy. With a Movie On. In Wide Screen. Window Open. Sound of Mosquitos at Dusk. Just out of the shower. With BBQ chicken. Baked Beans. Coke.

And Watermelon.

Juicy, red, ripe, savory watermelon.

This is summer deluxe.

Boris Is A Working Dog.

I took Boris to my Atlanta Photography Guild meeting and he transformed into AMERICAS NEXT TOP MODEL. Seriously. He looks so hard core. This photo was taken by my buddy Justin. The colors just pop!

Now, a little tech humor. How do you fix a Memory Leak?

(For those of you that don't know what a "Memory Leak" is, read here.)

Credits: I took this photo of my friend Ashley, but my photographer friend who goes by The Rocketeer actually was the first to make the joke....

Toe Hunger.

They lie in wait, like beasts you see on Discovery Channel violence programming, waiting to bite a toe. I live in fear of the toe hunger.

Happy Christmas Time Again.

Hey everyone!

It's been a slammed December for me. Feels like I've been busy on all fronts, but business is a good thing. All my hard work, house work, and house cleaning culminated in a great holiday party at my house this past weekend! Many of you (read: family and west coast friends ) have never visited my deluxe suburbopad so I've posted a gallery of house pics and party pics! Hope you enjoy! CLICK HERE to see them.

Hope you're having a wonderful holiday season!

Fall is in the air. And on the street.

Took this at a late night party in Cabbage Town last week. A friend of a friend (who shall remained unnamed) decided it would be fun to trash anything not nailed down at his friend's (I use the word friend loosely) party. Wonderful rock n roll hilarity ensued, including the destruction of pictured pumpkin!

Classic Buford Highway : 1998

I've been looking around for this photo for awhile but couldn't find it. Then serendipitously, it shows up in an email from a friend in South Carolina who found it in her stuff and scanned it for me...

Suburban Cowboy

I own a guitar, a black cowboy hat and a dog. No reason I shouldn't move to Nashville tomorrow, write a few old timey honky tonk tunes and show Brooks and Dunn to the proverbial exit. What do you think Coach Jessop, time for me to cowboy up and make a run at it? (My Montana brother-in-law has been after me for years to accept my inner cowboy...)

How to compress and shrink pics with Microsoft Paint.

Ok, people. The downside to buying a digital camera that takes pics in really high resolution is that each picture is a pretty huge file. A pet peeve of mine is how many of you don't learn how to compress (or "shrink" in lay terms) the size of the picture before trying to sending your pics in email as these huge files! So here's a little primer for you.

1 - Open Windows Explorer on your PC and navigate to the folder where your pics are stored.

2 - Right click on your picture and select Open With -> Paint.

3 - Now that your picture is open in Paint, select Image -> Stretch / Skew (or simple press Ctrl-W).

4 - Enter 25% for Horizontal and 25% for Vertical and the press OK. If you can see the entirety of the picture on your monitor, then you've shrunk it to a reasonable size. If you're satisfied with the size, move on to step 5, if not then repeat step 4 until your satisfied with the size. Remember, if you aren't satisfied with your stretch, you can always select Edit -> Undo (or press Ctrl Z)to undo your last stretch.

5 - Press File -> Save As and name your picture. Make sure you're file type is set to JPG.

Your good to go!

Missing Home.

I'm not prone to feeling homesick very often. This week has felt really long though, and it's only Wednesday. I'm in Minneapolis, the weather is beautiful, and the city is buzzing. Yet still, I can't help but wish I was back at home, with Natasha and Boris, sitting at Piedmont Park. Relaxing.

The picture above I took last weekend at Molhams riotous party at the Four Seasons. It's another picture that is a couple of shots stiched together. You can click on the picture for a larger version...

Toast with jam...

I call this photo "Toast With Jam While Cat Baits Dog". Such a soothing morning breakfast.

Are we there yet?

Boris made me proud this weekend. He FINALLY walked to the front door to tell me he was considering pee-ing somewhere other than in our dining room. And... (drum roll please...) He JUMPED into the back of the car on his own. Twice!
