Nike Ad – Human Chain

February 22nd, 2010 · Comments · Tangential

It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.
And it’s not where you’re from, it’s where you’re at.
Everybody gets knocked down, how quick are you gonna get up?

Let’s Fight… Like Gentlemen!

February 19th, 2010 · Comments · Games

Yesterday, Capcom made it official: Dudley’s back in Super Street Fighter IV.

Along with Ibuki, Makoto, and the earlier character announcements – Adon, Cody, Dee Jay, Guy, Juri, T. Hawk – that makes for a total of nine new World Warriors. Well, ten if you include Hakan, who hasn’t been confirmed yet, but everyone knows he [...]

The Last Airbender

February 17th, 2010 · Comments · Movies

Morning View

February 7th, 2010 · Comments · Music, Visual Art

I was fixing up my music collection earlier, and I forgot how much calm the cover of Morning View brings to me.

Then you follow it up with a round of Wish You Were Here, and suddenly you’re not in the city anymore.

Heading to New Zealand

February 1st, 2010 · Comments · Life, Travels

I’m going there this March to go to my cousin’s wedding – and then Australia afterwards! To sum it up in a very understated manner, I’m very excited.
New Zealand, as you might know, is legendary for its beautiful and fantastical vistas which now only rarely exist elsewhere. Views like this…

…make me grateful that my eyesight [...]
