I don’t know if any of you guys have heard this girl’s stuff, but I have become kind of obsessed. Her name is Lady Gaga and she is 22! (A baby!) Anyways, I saw this video on stylsightings a few days ago and clicked on if for a whim, and now I’m hooked. This song is kind of dance-y and fun (so joel will like it), but she’s a great solo, powerful girl singer (which Katie will like) and plus she’s ADORABLE (so Emma will definitely like her). So I thought I would post her here and see what you all think.

Lady Gaga – Pokerface

I’ve got two things…

The first is this series of photos I found on reddit that is so goddamn cool that I want you all to see it. click on this.

The second thing is an iReport from our Los Angeles Bureau Chief, Bill! Rude.

Woah hey, SO! I just bought a one-way plane ticket to New York, leaving October 8th. I’ve got a sublet all setup out there and enough money saved up to not have a job for awhile, should push come to shove. I’m getting more and more contacts out there so I think that things will even out. Also, it will be much easier to find a job if I’m actually in the city and when people “could you come in to talk?” I won’t have to say “Oh, actually I’m in Minneapolis right now.” Soo… that’s happening. Finally.

Also, I just False 3D in Flash: Displacement Maps">posted this over at my lab.blog mostly because it was more work-related than anything. Plus, does anyone here really care about displacement maps in ActionScript 3? I won’t be offended if you say no!

BUT, something you should care about (and have probably noticed) is that Shambot’s got some new polish! Centered, cool-gray background, flash header. Yes, my friends, this is e-paradise with a touch of class. I will be posting something more in depth about the header and how it came about.

Also, I played Call of Duty 4 with Tim on Xbox Live last night! Fun city! It’s always more fun to play with people you know. There was lots of “Go on without me!” and “Damn it I won’t leave you!” Good times all around.

Here’s a video of the last year of my life compressed into three minutes and ten seconds.

AKA, videos. I bought a digital camera (finally)! It’s an Olympus and Ben helped me pick it out. It’s a pretty nice camera. I needed video capabilities, obviously, so I can document fun things…

I was on Serious Eats today (an awesome food blog that always makes me hungry), and they posted this video:

It makes me want a Baconator…

Also, right now, I’m digitizing Lucha Libré fights. Mexican pro wrestling is weird, but not all that different than american pro wrestling.
