So a few weeks ago I picked up a Canon handheld miniDV camera for some reason. Found it on Woot and got a pretty good deal on it. But now I've got a video camera, and no idea what to do with it really other than trying to learn some video apps to add to my portfolio.
So here's the first movie I threw together, just a pass with iMovie for now. Tossed the camera onto the dashboard of my car on bright sunny Saturday afternoon and went for a ride. It's really good with Thomas Newman's theme to "Road to Perdition" (appropriate?), but in the spirit of being in compliance with copyright laws the version I uploaded to YouTube is silent.

There's only a few bands out there any more that i'll actually go out and buy CDs anymore, but old favorites The Tossers are one of them. Sure, I'm a couple months late getting their last one, but i picked it up today and it reminded me we're less than two months away from St. Pats.
Dropkick Murphys, The Tossers, Flogging Molly... I think they'll all be passing through town in the next six weeks.
and here's ten minutes why:
heard about this video on Dahl this morning... so i had to check it out. I only made it to the 1:33 mark, and i completely blame the LASIK for losing.
