My little sister Kerrigan married my new brother Kevin last weekend!  She asked me to set up a photobooth at the reception.  I soldered up a foot-pedal to my camera kit with some lighting, and this is what it captured.

A 2010 retrospectum
2010 has been quite a year for me.  I got into the best shape of my life, we added a fantastic little fireball of a kitten to our home, I took a record number of photos, bought my first new car.  I traveled a bunch for work (Albuquerque NM, Orlando FL, Philly PA) and for pleasure (Richmond VA, Portsmouth NH, Pemaquid ME, Newport RI).  Oh yeah, and I got married.   We’re excited for 2011...

new iphone huh
So the new iphone has video chat.  It seems like people aren’t even willing to do regular chat anymore, and opt for the less personal TXT Msgs (SRSly).  Maybe apple should work on developing a communication even more devoid of personal interaction than TXT.  Perhaps something with pulses of dashes and dots? .- .— . … —- — .
