And Another Thing

The nice thing about Tumblr is it’s lack of comments.

Also.

As long as I don’t link this to Facebook, only about 4 people see it.

That works.

This was going to be a post with an embedded YouTube video. I was hoping for Michelle Shocked’s Streetcorner Ambassador, but it is not to be found. From the brilliant Captain Swing album. Hippie lyrics aside, it’s a great tune.

Then I thought The Smiths, I Know It’s Over, from another great album that you ~~probably~~ should already own, The Queen is Dead. But all the videos were all emo and Moz fan shrines, quite embarrassing really.

Instead, find these songs (hint: they are linked up above so you can download them from Amazon) and give them a listen. You shouldn’t be disappointed. If you are, you’re only out $1.98.

Color Run 2012 - Arizona

Sat, 28 Jan 2012 13:28:06 -0700

The Color Run:

The Color Run is a one of a kind experience that is less about speed and more about enjoying a color crazy day with your friends and family. Our events, are all about people of all different speeds, ages, shapes, and sizes toeing the start line. Whether you are a casual morning mall walker or an Olympic athlete, the 3 miles of the Color Run course will be the most enjoyable real estate you’ve traveled in a VERY long time.

The shorter version is a blast of a good time! Imagine about 20,000 people, all gathered together, wearing white and starting a 5k run. It was for charity with proceeds going to Banner Heath Cardon Children’s Medical Center, it was nice to see such a great turn out. That’s 20k people with an extra $30. Nice to see the economy turning around.

The off was like a typical run I would imagine. That would change after the first 1000 meters, which is where the first color station was; yellow.

And so it went. With each 1,000 meters came a new color, ending at the finish with everyone looking like they were blasted with the Walt Disney Color Machine. It was pretty awesome.

Not quite as awesome as the final color blast. Everyone gathered in the middle of Tempe Town Park and after a 10 count, unloaded handful after handful of colored corn starch into the air!

I would say a great time was had by all! I know I enjoyed it and I’m more than pleased with how the photos turned out!

“Look at Zappos, one of the fastest companies to reach $1 billion in recent years, fueled by an electric and eclectic culture, one that’s inclusionary, encouraging, and empowering. It’s well-documented, celebrated, and shared willingly with anyone who wants to learn from it. Compare that to American Apparel, the controversial and prolific fashion retailer with a well-documented and highly dysfunctional culture. Zappos is thriving and on its way to $2 billion, while American Apparel is mired in bankruptcy and controversy. Both companies are living out their missions—one is to create happiness, and the other is based on self-centered perversity. Authenticity and values always win.”

“But Dodd’s bigger problem — one that has plagued the entire MPAA for decades — is that they fundamentally don’t understand technology. And so they turn to fear-mongering. Television was going to kill movies. Videotapes were going to kill movies. DVDs were going to kill movies. Etc, etc, etc.”

- The first sentence. That’s the problem with so many things, especially the music and movie industry. They don’t get it.
