ShimmyT Was Here

I really like the way this one turned out:

it was a dragon fly sitting on the bushes in my backyard. I used my 300mm Sigma Lens, and my Nikon D200. I think you can get the exif data from it.

Well everything that I’ve ordered over the last few months is here now. I’ve got a nice big screen Samsung 50″ HLT5076S, Logitech Harmony 880 that I snagged off of eBay for a damn good deal, and a new Popcorn Hour A-100 to play all of the “media” on my server. I now understand what everyone was talking about when they were saying I need to be on HD. This picture is truly amazing. Also the DirecTV folks will be here on Wed to put in the DirecTV HD service. Lots of positive stuff happening. I’ll have pictures and setup information up soon.

I’m really digging my old OnStar friends blog 93autumns.com. He has got some really slick shots on there, and I really like his street photography stuff.

Something else pretty cool that I’ve just recently found that I think the entire web knows about is styleforum.net. I never knew there was so much to learn about finer clothing, and shoe brands. I’m personally looking to get in on some of these: Allen Edmonds ‘Belmont’. I think they’d go pretty well with khakis or slacks. Still looking for some really nice dress shoes for dressier events, boots, and casual shoes for my jeans.

After a two month hiatus from blogging and everything that entails (thinking of stuff to write about). I’ve decided to take up blogging again. I’ve moved to a new domain, and blown out the old db. I’m hoping to keep this blog a lot less complaining; and more photos stuff, linux stuff, and gaming stuff. I’ll have the occasional personal stuff up but hopefully not so much. I’ve got my new EEE that I’m hoping to write a review on soon (it’s only a 900 but it’s new to me).
