Review: Mophie Juice Pack
So, I am going to let you in on a little secret: I have this overwhelming fear that my iPhone is going to run out of batteries and die on me when I am out on the town, and what would I do if I couldn’t instagram or Twitter what I am doing?
Flavor Tripping and the Miracle Fruit
I honestly had no idea what to expect when my friend Anna invited me to a party at her house where the theme was to take a pill that was created from some miracle fruit. The miracle fruit somehow reacted with your taste buds and altered how you tasted salty and sour foods. Anna had a bought a smorgasbord of foods ranging from IPA’s, whiskey, tomatoes, lemons, war heads, cheeses, olives and more. When you take the pill you are supposed to let it dissolve on your tongue and come into contact with as many taste buds as possible, which made for some funny faces and quotes: ...
What Music Scene?
Let's face it, the music scene here in Boulder is, well, lacking. Okay even that is being a too nice. The music scene here sucks. There is no community for bands and artists, and even if there was a small, supportive one, there are no venues to accommodate local bands. When I think of venues in Boulder, I think of the Fox Theatre, Boulder Theater, Club 156 and maybe the Brick House at Lazy Dog. Both the Fox and Boulder theaters are too big for most local artists and likely too expensive to them as well. I have never been to Club 156, and the few times ...
Keepstream Review
I use my Twitter favorites more often then not as a 'read later' or 'don't forget to share this with so and so later' more than a 'I love this tweet!' Then I usually forget to go back and read the article or share the photos with anyone. I favorite tweets for different reasons, think it will be useful at work, it is about a band I like, I want to share it with someone etc. There are different reasons that I try to keep straight in my head, but I sometimes forget why I marked a tweet or article. Earlier today I read an article ...
Should I Remove This Video?
UPDATE: Thank you for the response! I did end up removing this YouTube video after reading your comments and chatting with a few other people. Thank you for your input! I have a ethical/moral question regarding a video that I took of a band during a concert (no, the band is not in the photo below). At the concerts that I attend, I always have my iPhone (and/or camera) in hand, ready to capture whatever may happen on stage (what can I say, I like to document my life). Most of these videos have been posted to my YouTube page. Some get more views than others, but ...
Don’t Call It A Resolution
I read a lot of books. Rather I used to read a lot of books. You can ask my parents, I was the kid that would always have a book with me: at the dinner table, while watching tv, in the car. I even had a book light so I could continue reading as we were driving home, from wherever.
In the past couple of years the books I used to carry around have been replaced by my smart phones and the literature now consists of blogs, tweets and Facebook
The Graduate – “Don’t Die Digging”
One of my latest musical obsessions is the band The Graduate. My friend Matt introduced them to me over a year ago, and I just recently saw them open for Ludo. They just came out with the following video for their new song "Don't Die Digging." After watching this video I could not get this song out of my head! This song is on their new CD Only Every Time which I highly recommend purchasing. The making of:
Now Playing: Stubhy and The Bad Habits
One of my newest musical obsessions is Stubhy and The Bad Habits. The lyrics are also quite engaging. One of the best uses of alliteration that I have heard in a long time comes in the second verse: “and months and months of medication and mental masturbation.” I listened to this song on repeat all morning, and without fail my ears would perk up during that line every time (and make me smile a bit).
I Need a New Laptop, iPad, Messenger, Travel Bag
I am in desperate need for new laptop bag. A few weeks ago I purchased a Chrome messenger bag, and while it is a great bag and fit my laptop, ipad, camera, cords, everything I needed it to fit, it had one flaw – it squished my boobs. So, now I am in need of a new bag before my next 2 conferences. I have limited time, but need help finding something suitable for both everyday wear and travel.
