Some Pictures from Vacation



Interesting, Disney is linking your park ticket with your fingerprint using biometrics now. Pretty cool, i thought.



Me Rikey Florida.



Epcot. One of my favorite places to go, and untill today, i didnt know it stood for Experimental Prototype City Of Tomorrow. It was supposed to be just that. But as my dad said..."Walt died, and the suits took over." Nuff said.



This is where the "Mission to Space" ride is. Honestly, its the most exciting ride ive ever had at a theme park. Its a space simulator, and the launch simulation is CRAZY real. The G forces when you take off almost HURT they are that strong. The ride has 4 seats in an enclosed capsule, and each person in the capsule has a position on the crew, and at different times you have to press certain buttons depending on your job. For instance, i was the navigator, so i had to initiate the decelleration thrusters at landing, and when you press the button, it actually affects how your capsule moves. Its slick.


That should do it for now, im gonna get ready to head back to epcot for dinner at the german pavillion, and i might have more shots from illuminations tonight!

Take it easy!

Ive heard good things about adium from people, but this is the first ive tried it. It blows AIM away for OS X, and is alot like trillian for PC. The only thing i wish it did was secureIM like trillian. Oh well.

American Baby Part 2

I got a new version of the American Baby mp3 that is the album version. Great quality, no stupid AOL man talking during it.

American Baby - mp3

I updated the other post to point to this file as well.

Podunk, Ohio

Man, i hate small towns in ohio.

me = big city kid.

I saw a raccoon on the drive up today that was crossing the road, as i slowed down and i came up to it, i noticed it had been hit by a car, and its back legs were crushed. It was dragging itself across the road to safety.

Yes, raccoons are pests, but damn that was sad to see. I felt so bad for the little guy.


Nice way to start a day.

American Baby

Here is the download for a captured AOL stream of the new DMB single, American Baby from their upcoming album, Stand Up, due in stores May 8th.

Listen to me, im such an asshat.

American Baby - mp3

Overall, i like the sound. Its progressive for them. Somewhat everyday-esque, but i think its good, especially if all of the hype in their interviews comes to be true.

Let me know what you think.
