104 - Lagging, unsure, and possible missing for a while

103 - Go a Round?

102 - Not much for words lately, are you?

101 - Old Blue

Day One-Hundred, wow...really?

IT could be worse. You too could work in a loud, smelly, dirty place.

Day Ninety Nine - Sure

A little wax, and she will be good as new.

Day Ninety Eight - Fun

Have fun, but by all means, don't forget, to be safe!

Day Ninety Seven- The Claw

Have a seat, your turn is next.

Day Ninety Six - Airport Sleeper

This area of the Boston Logan Airport made news reports this morning when a reporter noted that," The security lines went all the way back to the Kid Port play area". I thought that was odd, seeing that most people listening around the nation would have no idea what that really meant. Anyways, here it is a week ago where I saw this fine airport employee setting a good example.

Day Ninety Five - Somewhere West

Day Ninety Four - Out of Focus Outake

But
i like it.

Day Ninety Three - Juice

Anyone who really knows me is aware that I am a big fan of juice. That is why I am always keeping a close watch on juice products. I thought that the juice companies had thought of ever variety when it came to Orange Juice, but boy was I wrong, just check out what's coming to a grocery store near you!

Day Ninety Two - Fishy

Get out of my ocean, Bub.

Day Ninety One - Me on a Stick

Day Ninety - Over

The video is over - details to follow.

Day Eighty Nine - Non-entry

Too busy to blog :-(
Shooting music video for THE OWLS
this weekend. Trying to make it look like NIGHT OF THE HUNTER (see pic above). I'll let you know how it turns out.
More soon - Walk in peace.

Day Eighty Eight - Wallpaper

Day Eighty Seven - Travel Much?

Day Eighty Six - Owww..that's a cut.

Shot a very early and very quick video for film maker and artist Wyatt McDill this morning. We only got hasseled by the cops twice for being on The Great Northern Railroad's property.


Aaron, the actor standing, accidentally beamed a rock at my chest while I was video-taping. It made a loud "THUD" sound, I looked down and said, Ow". He was suppose to be throwing rocks in another direction but lost control of one. It came about 6 inches from taking out the camera lens.


We had to shoot fast because the 2nd cop only gave us 20 minutes to finish up.

Day Eighty Five - The Life

Day Eighty Four - Good Advice

Sometimes the answer is right in front of you...while driving on the exit ramp of 94 and Wabasha.

Day Eighty Three - Video Weekend

Worked on a video for
Tapes N' Tapes. this past weekend. Nice guys. Here are a few snaps, but none to give away the big ending.

Day Eighty Two - Bert and the "W"

Day Eighty One - Death Goes On

Day Eighty - Only Static

As I walked by the hiss and static noise level was almost blinding. I wondered if my ears would be able to withstand any noise other than the electronic silence if someone where doing their job properly. Perhaps they ran out for a quick round of Mini Donuts, or perhaps they had just suffered a massive heart attack during the 12th playing of the day of Buddy Holly's, "Everyday". Those questions went unanswered as I continued to quickly walk by for fear of sudden ear-drum trauma.

Day Seventy Nine - Works like a Wrangler. Looks like a "Dude"

My friend Darin just found a nice 1971 Dodge truck.


In doing some research about the model, called the Sweptline, I found out something funny. It seems that Barney himself (Don Knotts - One of the most underrated comedians of the past decade) was a spokes-person for Dodge. he was selling a truck that was called, "The Dude'.

Pretty funny, check this out!

Day Seventy Eight - This Weekend

Day Seventy Seven - Why is Hoover in my room?

Yes, that is J. Edgar Hoover, and yes the original, signed print, is sitting here besides me now. Why? That's a good question with explanation to follow so check back.

Ok - I've held the truth long enough. Hoover is in my room because my Mom lived in a house that a former owner, who was in the FBI, was awarded by Hoover and some photos were left behind.

Day Seventy Six - Little Green Men

Carolyn and I spent some time last night painting this for Carl, our nephew. He is 2.5 and obsessed with Willy Wonka, the 1971 version of course, I mean he may be young but the kids got good taste.

Day Seventy Five - Don't Make them like...

Day Seventy Four - Awarded

So the 48 Hour Film Fest Awards took place a few nights ago. Check a few posts back to learn more. The project that I was involved in took a few small awards. Let's see...we got Audience Award, Best Use of Dialogue, Best Cinematography, and well....BEST PICTURE OF MINNEAPOLIS!

Day Seventy Three - Gone

West St.Paul, it came down with a dense "thud" sound, abruptly hitting the pavement to no longer be the safety hazard that is was for so long.

Hours later, after putting it on the street with a sign that read, "free", it was taken to a place of unknown origin.

Day Seventy Two - One Ratchet Strap

Wow, now that's an impressive load! I drove by this the other day and was amazed.

Day Seventy One - Eyeball Husler

Look what some guy showed me yesterday while I was talking on the phone.

Day Seventy - Marks

So today I worked at the Midway Stadium, home of the St.Paul Saints Baseball team. It was a commercial for a insurance company.

The funny thing is that I worked at this same stadium over 14 months ago on a feature that will go un-named. Near the men's bathroom are some tape marks that were left from that feature over a year ago! That is pretty amazing considering the thousands of people who file in and out of there in a year's time.

For those who do not know, tape marks are often put down so that the actors will know where to stand in a shot. Here they are - More pics to follow of this very hot day.

Day Sixty Nine - Cave Paintings

Day Sixty Eight - Nice Work

Classy lawn display, timeless design, year-round appeal.

Day Sixty Seven - BUDDHIST at hand

Imagine my surprise when I came across these buildings south of the cities in what turned out to be the town of Hampton, among farm fields, pick-up trucks, and dirt roads.


Seems like there are still working on the bigger of the two buildings, but things like this always make me wonder what people hundreds, or even thousands, of years ago would have thought if they then had a brief vision of the future, perhaps a psychic vision of sorts. There they are, hiking thru nothing but woods for days. They wake up one morning, and in the half-sleep of early morning witness the bright golden light reflecting off the top of this temple. They then shake their head and rub their eyes, and when they look back they see nothing but trees, once again.

This beautiful place turns out to be the WATT MUNISOTARAM, MINNESOTA CAMBODIAN BUDDHIST SOCIETY, INC.

The odd thing is that this place is maybe a half a mile from another picture that I posted on 6/9 and there is little to nothing else in the whole area for miles.
