It's refreshing to actually have a great commercial on tv again.. This commercial is exemplified by The Most Interesting Man In The World.. Who once had an awkward moment.. just to see how it felt.. And lives vicariously.. through himself.. Stay thirsty my friends..

One of the most influential artists/entertainers in the world passed away yesterday.. Michael Jackson was a big influence on my childhood days.. I loved watching his music videos and gettin' down to his tunes.. To this day.. anytime I hear the drum intro to Billie Jean at any party.. you'll see me on the dance floor.. even if I'm the only one on the dance floor.. His contributions to music/video will live on forever..

Another sad passing yesterday.. My elementary school crush.. Farrah Fawcett lost her brave battle to cancer.. Charlie's got an angel in heaven now..

Been so busy the last few days.. been wanting to post these two items..

synesthesia [sin-uhs-thee-zhuh]�noun: a sensation produced in one modality when a stimulus is applied to another modality, as when the hearing of a certain sound induces the visualization of a certain color..

This video by Terri Timely appropriately titled Synesthesia totally helps me visualize the whole concept.. Awesome..

Also check this video of a 1:1 scale Gundam RX-78 being constructed in Japan (duh).. Full detail down to the joints and decals.. I know they actually have a real and fully functional version hidden from the U.S. somewhere.. Fo'real!..

I can't wait to see it when it gets dirty/gritty like this 1:1 scale Gundam..

With the advent of HD video capable D-SLRs.. I think you'll be seeing more support rigs like the Redrock Micro Video SLR Bundles at weddings and other life events.. This makes sense for pro and prosumer photographers who already have a host of different lenses.. and have recently purchased a Nikon D90 or a Canon 5D MkII.. and are interested in getting into the video sector..

Follow focus ring/gears.. shoulder mount.. handgrips.. matte box.. and more.. This can make things very interesting.. Very interesting..

Loving this PhosPhor E-Ink wristwatch .. Thin profile and ergonomic curved case provide a comfortable fit.. But more importantly.. this watch uses E-Ink technology to display the time.. That makes for easy-to-see.. super high contrast readability.. You can also flip from white display on black background.. to black display on white background for added versatility/variety.. Nice..

I started to lose interest in prefab lately.. but a couple of trips into the Sunshine Coast got me thinking about putting up a summer cabin.. in a quick and relatively easy manner.. The Cargotecture c320s is one design that I might consider..

Short on desktop real-estate?.. Are you prone to spilling your drink all over your desk?.. Then the DrinKlip is the right product for you.. Kinda like the cupholder in your car.. it clips onto your desk (location is up to you).. and securely holds your drink in place.. This simple yet elegant design comes in a neon green.. yellow.. and pink..

The Holga 120-3D looks like a cool pair of old school night vision goggles.. However it's actually a stereoscopic camera.. Each lens takes a photo of the same subject.. at slightly different angles.. The result is if you create slides from the shots taken.. mount them on 3d slide mounts.. and view them on a 3d slide viewer.. you'll see them in 3d.. Lots of work.. but worth it..

The camper part of me.. the climber part of me.. and the designer part of me.. really appreciate the Kampenwand table by Nils Holger Moormann.. Normally on their own.. untreated wood.. raw iron.. and rope.. don't do much for me.. However.. in this case.. I love how it all looks good together.. with the bright red climbing rope accenting the raw wood and iron.. Note that the rope is functioning to keep the iron brackets tensioned.. so that the table doesn't fall appart when a load is applied to the table.. Very nice..

Check out this M16 Golgo 13 Custom.. It is the fictional character Golgo 13's favorite long range weapon.. His customized M16A2 features a high-rise cheek rest.. And a 3-9x40mm scope.. which sits on an MP5/G3 raised scope mount.. Oh yes.. this item is currently in Airsoft only.. Custom Golgo 13 carrying case included..
