Our gift for The Girl this X'mas was a hot-shoe mounted microphone for her camera. I spent a bit of time with her today showing her the ropes of DaVinci Resolve, some video editing software that she pointed me to a year ago. It was fun. She uploaded a bunch of X'mas day loafing off videos to my Youtube account.

rand()m quote

In the wake of 9/11, we [in America] have made the decision as a society that we can never again create something in which we can take pride, for fear that someone will destroy it. Moreover, we must suppress any trace of individualism, lest someone have the desire to rise above the bland sameness that protects us. I have, alas, no idea how to recapture our courage.
