The San Juans

I’m just fiddling around again, so please feel free to ignore me :). A couple summers ago we headed to the San Juan Islands for a week- and this is the view from our deck. Not bad!

IPhone

Are you jealous yet? Last weekend I headed out to pick up an iPhone, and it really was a good investment. I was rolling with a Razr prior to the iPhone, and I definitely didn’t feel the need to pickup a ‘Smart Phone,’ but I was right to invest in the iPhone.

There are 2 categories of impact that the iPhone has:

The Internet in your pocket

This is impactful in exactly the same way it was impactful to have the internet running to your house. Anytime anywhere access to email, maps, Google, and all that.

Obsolete the laptop

I mostly used my laptop for checking email, surfing the web, and playing a simple game or two. Of course in a pinch I could also develop on it, write documents, and more. While I won’t be dealing with a spreadsheet, a word doc, or Visual Studio on my iPhone anytime soon, it is awesome for email and the web. My laptop has come out of its bag once in the last week. Once.

Bass Fishing

Ever wonder what it was like to fish for Bass in 1903? This burning question is answered in the thrilling video “Bass Fishing”. In case you’re curious, here is the riveting description of this video:

A man in fashionable sporting attire is standing on some large rocks at the edge of a stream. He is holding a short fishing rod in his hands and casting into the running stream. The film ends as the fisherman kneels at the edge of the water, holding the reel in his left hand while he hauls in the fish with a net held in his right hand. There are several occasions when the fisherman cannot be seen, as he walks out of camera range.             

I recommend you drop what you’re doing and sit back for an inspiring 1:16 thrill ride in black and white.
