How about we set a date (I'm thinking Friday) where we document how we spend our day, in photos?

I believe we did this before, and had some pretty cool shots at the end of it.

So you just carry your camera with you, and snap what you're upto, stick a caption below it when needed, post it here. And voila.

(this would give me a nice excuse to mess about with my new baby Canon ixus camera )


Thoughts?
we don't have time to stop for gas

If I did something like this, there's no way it'd be serious.

That and I'd probably get banned when I posted a shot of my early morning wizz from 1st person.

I'd be up for it. I'm going to be in Florida this Friday, finally getting a (sort of) vacation.

I think the only reason I'm agreeing to it is that my XTi just came back in from getting fixed. WOOT!!!

Vacation pictures are totally cheating. We want your daily life. So in your case, I expect to see a lot of pictures of you praying and maybe one of you watching Tv with the subtitles editing out an obvious expletive. And maybe if we're lucky we'll see you exchanging a game system since you do that every month or so, right?

I'm guessing this in-joke has it origins in the Political War Lounge?

I can't appear in any of the shots because the camera might capture my spirit, plus my Friday afternoon goat sacrifice doesn't over all that well with a lot of people.

I went to Bumbershoot in 99 I think. Quite a blast. I saw Jethro Tull, Candlebox, Third Eye Blind and some others I can't remember. I also met up with this amazing girl from Bainbridge Island that I had met at a Everclear show earlier in the summer.

The best I would be able to hope for is pictures of my cats trying to help me pack boxes for the move on Saturday.

This sounds fun. Except I don't own a digital camera. So I either borrow my sister's or I use my camera phone. Be prepared to see a lot of lectures.

It'd be a riot if someone here happened to work in porn or a strip-club and decided to participate.

1. Praying. Maybe I'll capture myself speaking in tongues for you and freak out not only the godless liberals on these boards, but also the traditionalist Christians.
2. TVGuardian. I'll try to get the infamous (among my friends, anyways) caption where the soldier screaming, "Johnson, get your toe over here!"
3. I've actually not sold a game system in quite a while.
4. You forgot the Mountain Dew, although Rumor's right in saying iced tea as well.

I'd actually like you to participate while on vacation instead of during your "normal life." I have a feeling that your daily picture blog would look a lot like this...

He knows I don't care. I don't take myself too seriously (on most days), so he and a few others know that I can take it without acting like a moron or thinking that my lifestyle has been insulted.

They (Dakar and a few others) don't seem to mind either. Good thing too; it's nice to know that not everyone has a chip on their shoulder.

I always forget the Mountain Dew! I'm surprised you're not cross with me more often.

So close, so close. It's actually reversed. I'm never on while on vacation (I'll lurk here and there, but that's about it). The Dane Cook reference was good. And I was able to read that text in the last one.

However, this is how you should have done it:

8.01


8.02


8.03


8.04


8.04.30

Guess I worded it wrong. I meant your daily life would look like the pictures I posted.

I'd rather see your vacation photos. (edit: not REALLY...I was just keeping on topic)

I'm also glad you caught the white text reference. I wasn't sure anyone would notice.

Is anyone here the official traveling gynecologist for the Hawaiian Tropic Bikini Team?

My upcoming days are not picture worthy, though I could supply a thousand words of nonsensical jabber.

Here's my day in pictures (pardon the cameraphone quality. I think the EOS Rebel would have been a little suspicious):

8:45AM, jump on the bike and leave for class.


9:00AM First class: Heat Transfer


10:00AM Then to work:



11:00AM Second class: Alternative Energy Sources


12:00PM Back to work for lunch. Left over stir fry and carrots.


2:00PM Third class: Physics of the Solar System. Thank you, supple bike parking.


3:00PM Fourth class: Technical Writing.

4:30PM Leave for the evening's activities:



7:30PM Watch football game:


Yada yada yada...

2:30AM Arrive back at home.

So there was my day.
