distractions, distractions...

i should be practicing my fingers to the bone right now, but i couldn't help but once again marvel at the magnificence and sheer beauty of the Alternity Nissan GT-R Convoy transformer that I preordered a few months ago.

random shot: visting the woodshed

severin reed frommy old band, "almost ready" used to refer to practice sessions as woodshedding.  i guess it comes from the references to whipping unruly children in the woodshed.  here's a shot of me whipping paris in the woodshed.

the &^$%*ing caprice

niccolo paganini's caprice no. 5

this particular transcription was done for guitar by virtuoso yngwie malmsteen.

wish me luck.

UPDATE: page 1 done and done.

a photo journal entry - a spooky, foggy morning

here are some spooky, foggy pictures i took on a spooky, foggy morning.  in light of halloween being tomorrow, i think they are very apropos.

a spooky, foggy road.

a spooky, foggy path.

a spooky, foggy fence.

a regular tree that is neither spooky or foggy.  it's just a regular tree that i took a picture of on a regular morning.

random snap: nice backsides

i was rearranging my room and got my axes in line for a nice shot.

politics vs patriotism

this past weekend, i filled out a voter registration card.

i'm not all into politics, unlike someone we know, but i do care about my country.

i don't claim a side, democrat or republican, but i am a patriot.

ozzy the dog - post wash photoshoot

ozzy, my rescued american eskimo, was way overdue for a bath/detailing.  and i know i might be bias because he's my dog, but he's super good looking.  all you kids with weird pit bull mixes, slobbery and smelly boston terriers, and tiny rat dog chihuahuas need to step aside and make way for the best looking dog around.

it was hard to get him to raise his ears like this for pictures.

eating a treat.  look at how he holds the treat with his paws like a person.  super smart and super cute.

definitely a blood

looking like a bleached, pensive fox

tastes good

the best dog ever.
