Hmm, I think I have found a way protest Boulder's treatment of the Naked Pumpkin Runners..... stay tuned. :) 

The BBC.co.uk website has an article about how the police have successfully quashed the 2009 Halloween Naked Pumpkin run, a yearly event that takes place on the Pearl St. Mall here in Boulder, CO. Here's a link to the article.

Below is a table that shows how many minutes of footage you can record on a P2 card. There is now a 64 Gig card that runs around $900 so you can finally get 1 hour of full quality video per card!! For the run and gun type stuff I plan to do, I'm thinking I'll need at least 2 x 64 Gig cards or I may even go the AVCHD route :( Perhaps the answer is to shoot in 720p?

If you're receiving unwanted calls or texts and you're a T-Mobile subscriber then you can block the offending number by calling customer service at 1-800-937-8997 and they should be able to block the call on their end.

This page contains some information I collected from around the web on amateur storm chasing.

Here is a collection of info from across the web on the new Panasonic AVCHD camera, the HMC40. It's the smaller brother of the HMC150 and costs about $1500 less. It can be bought for about $1900 at B&H (sans XLR adaptor).

This three part mini documentary follows two amateur tornado chasers as they race around Eastern Colorado in search of tornados. After the documentary had been reviewed and rejected by The Discovery Channel an anonymous employee describe the pair as "clueless, ill equipped, foul mouthed wankers!".

I just read this great article in the Washington Post on how we've become too fussy when it comes to choosing a mate. I was wondering what people's deal breakers were - what action or mannerism will make you call things off on say the third date? The Washington Post article lists some funnies; one guy made an inappropriate comment about a woman's shoes and another disliked his potential life partner's enthusiasm toward mayonnaise and Taquitos from 7-Eleven (well just look at them!!)

A quick post about my experience with Match.com at week 2 of my foray into interweb dating. I've sent out 50 odd emails, only got about 10 replies and have gone on approximately ZERO dates.

If you live in a college town then free wifi is normally as common as binge drinking and panty raids but in other towns or cities you may be out of luck. I mostly frequent locally owned coffee shops here in Boulder, CO who provide free wifi but sometimes when I'm on the road and unable to locate an independent coffee shop I'll cross over to the dark side for an hour or two.
