A Quick(Time) timelapse

Sunday, January 28th, 2007

I used my new suction cup mount on yesterday’s run to take some pictures while driving. When I got home and started sifting through them, I realized I (barely) had enough for a short QuickTime movie. I took the 146 still shots and created a new QuickTime movie, and then brought that into iMovie so I could add a soundtrack. It isn’t much (in fact, it’s so silly I’m wondering why I bothered…), but I’ll probably try to do more like this in the future.

OSMC window-tinting run

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

Ostensibly, we were going to check out Pete’s tint, but we all knew it was just an excuse to drive and eat. :-)

Despite the fairly crap weather, we attacked some good twisties, heard some good music, and ate well. Thanks everyone!

The profit from this vehicle went to a USA company.

What country did your vehicle support?




Ok, let’s just ignore for a second that the profit from the sale of your vehicle didn’t go solely to a “USA company”, but also to international companies that provided components. You can be certain China and Mexico saw a cut, even if the majority did go to fly Mark Fields back to Florida every weekend. But now let’s think about the dozens of gallons of dino-juice you pump through your King Ranch Edition F-250 every time you fill up. Who do you think sees that profit? Saudi Arabia? Kuwait? Now if instead Mr. America here were driving a Camry, wouldn’t he still be supporting American workers (in Toyota’s auto plants) while reducing (perhaps by 60% or more) his oil consumption and therefore his support of countries that our county’s currently giving the hairy eyeball to?

I’ve updated my Flickr Bookmarklets that I originally introduced in January ‘06. They’ve now got their own page, and I’ll make changes and updates there.
