I’m incredibly busy right now, so I will add more on this later, with step-by-step instructions on how to build your own blue or green screen backdrop for digital photography.
Inspired by a how-to I read on digg the other day, I decided to build a blue screen backdrop this weekend. With a couple of trips [...]

Well, I’m a year older today.
Yesterday Kristina had the day off. When she came to pick me up at Malden Center station, she had the dog with her, and I couldn’t help noticing that he had blue paint on his face, stomach, and butt.

The Red Sox
Yesterday, I spent most of the day flipping between the Sox and Yankees and the Patriots and Chargers. I was elated at one of those games, disgusted at the other. Probably not hard to guess which was which.
The best word I can come up with to describe how the Sox made the playoffs? [...]

Last night, I met Kristina at Central Square. Since she has the day off on Wednesdays, she met up with her friend Zhara (probably spelled that wrong) for lunch and some shopping. Zhara went to MIT and is on their alumni association. Ben Mezrich and Semyon Dukach were speakers last night at an event to [...]
