Flaming Cocktails! The Blue Blazer

January 11, 2010 By 2 Comments

Russell “Rockstar” Davis, from RockstarBartender.com, was kind enough to make this completely awesome flaming tequila based cocktail while I videoed it on a Canon 5D Mark II with a 15mm fisheye lens on it. The results are simply fantastic. If you’ve never seen anyone pour flaming liquid 3 feet through the air before, well… let me just say it’s a sight to behold!

Russell also made another special concoction for us on video, and I’ll get that posted as soon as I get a chance to edit it. I have a LOT of photos and videos that need editing right now, but I’ve also got a lot of other stuff going on, so it might take some time to get everything out. But I know you’ll all enjoy this one!

The Bachelorettes from Austin, TX

January 10, 2010 By 2 Comments

Last night, while taking photos in Austin, I was approached by a group of ladies who were celebrating a bachelorette party and doing a little clubbing. I had been walking down the sidewalk carrying my Canon 5D, and one of the ladies spotted the big camera and asked if I would take their photo. The thing is, she wasn’t joking!

Well, you guys know me. I’m willing to help out, so I said, “sure!” I think it surprised her. But she gathered up the rest of the ladies while I changed out lenses and put on the 15mm fisheye lens. Then, after the count of 3, we had the photo you see below. And when they saw the preview, they asked me how they could get it, so I directed them here to come pick it up!

So, I hope you ladies enjoy the photo, and maybe one of you at least can leave a comment to let me know you got it. Just keep clicking the image to get bigger versions. And congrats to whomever the bride to be is…

PS – See ladies. I told you I didn’t need a flash, and it would be worth waiting for me to change lenses. :-)

Highlights from the 2009 US Pole Dance Championship!

January 9, 2010 By

Pole DancingI don’t care who you are, this is just plain worth watching! These girls demonstrate unbelievable athleticism with nothing more than a pole.

Yeah, the guys are going to love this for sure, because the women competing in the US Pole Dance Championship are smokin hot. But on top of that, if you watch what these ladies are doing you quickly realize they are actual athletes. I mean, they have to have been full blown gymnasts – and they are definitely strong enough to kick your ass!

I also took a few screen caps of the video below to stop the motion and you can see that seriously, only a gymnast could pull these moves off.

Bully Beatdown!!! Colt: The Nebraska Bad Ass

January 8, 2010 By 2 Comments

YES! YES! YES!

I would like to find the guy whose brainchild Bully Beatdown was, and buy that man a beer! This must be the greatest show on the planet. Ever. And Mayhem is the perfect host!

You see, this is a show where people who are getting picked on coerce their bully into being beaten down, on TV, in a cage, by a professional MMA fighter! Again I say unto you, “YES! YES! YES!”

How To: Search for ONLY Amazon Prime Items on Amazon.com

January 7, 2010 By 7 Comments

I’m an Amazon Prime Member – meaning that I pay about $80 per year to get free 2nd day shipping on all my orders, no matter how big or small… as long as they are Amazon Prime eligible! As a result, I only want to search for items that are Amazon prime, but they don’t provide any easy method of doing this on Amazon.com! Grrrr!!!

So, here are two ways that I learned of which allow you to find just the Amazon prime items:

  • In the search box on Amazon, simply add “amazon.com” to the end of your search. ie – “camera amazon.com”.
  • Use the Firefox Greasemonkey extension with the Amazon Prime Search Improved Beta script which removes items that do not have the tag on the search results page when you are signed in as a Prime member. (Didn’t work for me for some reason.)

Hope it helps!

Tutorial: The Inside Out Cheeseburger (Yep, Cheese on the Inside!)

January 6, 2010 By 9 Comments

Here is just a little video I threw together with my friend AJ Wood while demonstrating how to use a few of the effects in iMovie. Nonetheless, I’ve had a lot of complements on my cheeseburgers ever since I learned how to make them from the guys working the grill at Whole Foods Market in Plano, TX.

You see… what you do is put the cheese on the inside! Yeah. Take a look.

Sexy, Hot, and Nude! 5 Lady Gaga Videos Get 210 MILLION Views!

January 5, 2010 By 9 Comments

SEX SELLS! And Lady Gaga has apparently studied at the Lady Madonna university, did some graduate work at the Marilyn Monroe School of Fine Art, and then got her PHD in pole dancing! And apparently it’s paying off for her. The collection of 5 videos below have, as of this moment, been viewed a total of over 210 million times!

And why? Well, check out the 60 screen captures below and you’ll see! I was AMAZED by the rapid fire sexual imagery in each of the videos. Maybe I’m just old, but I’ve never seen so much stuff crammed into one video. Sexual situations of every kind conceivable. Lady Gaga having sex with two guys, Lady Gaga lesbian sex, Lady Gaga group sex, Lady Gaga touching herself in public. Yep. If you want your Lady Gaga, you get it in ways you can’t even imagine! (BTW – Lady Gaga is on Twitter)

Oh, did I mention? These videos, and hence this very blog post, are not really “child appropriate”. You’ve been warned.

By Guest Star: Dee Brown of Forever Geek.

Bluffing is one of the most exciting elements in poker. You don’t always need the best hand to win money and whenever you convince someone to lay down a better hand, it’s a great feeling.

Bluffing is more art than science but there are still concepts you can use to decide whether or not to bluff. Here are a several things to consider when you decide to take down the pot with an otherwise losing hand!

Video: Justification for Using Rain-X

January 3, 2010 By Leave a Comment

I’m a big fan of Rain X, the automotive window glass treatment. It is designed to essentially fill in the tiny pores on the glass on your windshield and make it super slick to rain, snow or ice.

Since most people have never used a glass treatment before I figured I would show you a video of it in action so you can see why it’s so valuable. As you will see, Rain-X causes the rain to sheet right off the window – even at over 80 miles per hour. In fact, the faster you are going, the more effective it becomes, especially when compared to windshield wipers which can have a very hard time sweeping the rain off at higher speeds.
