Curtis Football vs E.R.

Halloween was a scary night for Emerald Ridge. I didn't even look at the final score but the Curtis Vikings won 70 something to ZERO. Below are a couple of pictures. Check out the Vikings this Friday (11/7/2008) @ 7:30 for some home turf playoff action. And if you miss it just check back here for some of the highlights!

The low-light visability with the addition of fog proved to be challenging to shoot in. But of course it really helps to set the mood as seen in this shot.

I've been gone all Fall and I finally got to watch Kate cheer so I had to get some good pictures!

Postin' up!

Don't get caught in the coaches gaze.

#30 Charlie Gilmur didn't lose focus during the entire game, even with a slight ankle injury.

More of the fog. It was thick!

Even when the Vikings held a commanding lead #16 streched the ball across the goal line for 6 more.

Death of my iPod

Well first of all I always said if my iPod died I'd never buy another Apple mp3 player...but it's 3 years later and somehow I talked myself out of the Zune 120 for another iPod Classic.

This one is reborn with a darker sexier side! Thin and black with 4x the capacity of my iPod photo. Too bad my music archive is 350+ GB of 320kbps audiophile goodness!!! I should be able to fit 14,000 songs on it though.

Here's the inside of the little beast. It suffered from HDD failure along with a deteriorating battery disorder.


I've always loved my iPod but when I had all the problems I experienced Apples poor customer service for myself. The state of my pod waranted a fair replacement or repair from Apple but they refused. They sell too many and just expect consumers to go and buy another after a few years. So long story short I recommend choosing to go with the Microsoft Zune, Sansa, or Creative products.

Well here are some picture from my latest adventures!
