eu falo portugues!
Check this out:
1. Still images from the season finale of LOST last night -
2. Pictures taken from our visit to Kauai, Hawaii last August -
I'm almost positive that's the same spot. Shots from the opposite side of Waimea Canyon in the valley going into the ocean. How cool is that???
awesome pictures. would there be another chopper following it? filming it? unless it's enroute or doing some pick-ups shots. i'm pretty sure that IS the same chopper though. and yes, i'm too cool to say helicopter. maybe i'll start using helichopper.
no no, those are just 2 still shots from the same episode of LOST from last night. The last 3 pics are pics from my trip. I was just commenting that I think I was at the place where they took that shot
ohhh, right right right, gotcha
awesome pics. kauai is beautiful
who's that fat guy in the pics?
Who's that panzy with no shirt?
Ha that's funny
I recommend Mutts on balboa island during an afternoon... if thats your thing
this is rad.
holy cow.
cool concept, but who wants to read anyway?
haha thats hilarious. so much work went into that
haha thats hilarious. so much work went into that
anyone wanna buy my Xterra??
I've had it since 2004 and I love it but I cannot pay for the gas anymore it's ridic, and plus i feel guilty about owning it
why anyone would buy an SUV these days is beyond me
if i was in the market to buy a car right now I'd buy a hybrid
you should totally be in used car sales!
lol
4100 songs on my playlist and i'm tired of it all and can't decide what to listen to
ha
I HATE THAT
that happens to me too....so i usually end up listening to an 80's station
yeah i chose Gnarls Barkley, can't stop listening to the new album... then forced myself to stop so I don't get sick of it.. but i'm going back to it haha
have you hear duffy? i love her CD, kinda a generic amy winehouse but she reminds me of the 60's singer - lulu....its a cool cd
BV's New Movie! Seaside Wasteland!
that's cool, i have one on the way actually... i'll try to post it up here soon
great. can't wait.
this was cool, was this in the winter??? Holy dead. so weird.
I kept thinking that some of those shots people were going to appear.
Like you know, the long shot of the thing in the middle of the boardwalk.. or the empty beach... etc., i thought maybe you went back this weekend and got that shot again with 320571257 people around.. and like spliced it in for a second kinda thing, that would be creeeepy
i kept waiting for it to happen
LOL
i shot this three weeks ago. and, y'know, for one second i entertained the idea of doing a piece where i splice in crowded shots in with the deserted shots, but i'd have to photograph the exact spot i was standing and come back and shoot it the same exact way at the same time of day... and the light was really unique that day. it just seems like a hassle, lol. thanks.
yeah, that's what i figured, it's probably easier to achieve something like that with photo like a slideshow type thing - I guess it's easier to crop a photo and ajust it to whatever you need

lil story about out convention in the LBC
This site has been way too dull lately. New girlfriend...discuss.
wow what happened to waiting for the latin one?
is her name LaFawnduh?
Just wasn't working. I gave it my all, but in the end I wasn't going to be happy with her.
aw man, im sorry....this girls pretty tho...so no loss on the other....does she have a good personality? where is she from?
She has a perfect personality for me. She's laid back, very submissive, and we like similiar types of music. I got her hooked on Jimmy Eat World. Haha... She lives in Pensacola, FL.
very submissive? you say that as if she lets you walk 5 steps ahead of her and follows your every move w/her head down...lol
No silly... haha... She's very adamant about the man being the lead and not like some other women who want to wear the pants and call all the shots. We're not living in some 3rd world country where women are objects. LOL
oh, heck, yeah! way to go!
Thanks buddy.
i'm telling you, dan is a dead ringer for Michael Rapaport, or maybe Brian Scalabrine
OMG i KNEW dan had a "familiar" look...LOL good eye!
Yeah, I've heard the Michael Rapaport thing before. Does that mean I get to be rich and famous too? LOL!
wow, is your name Kip? Do you spend all day talking to hot babes on the internet?
do you need someone to pull you into town?
Why do you have to rain on my parade man? I know her Aunt. She introduced us.
visiting california next month - LA area for 3 days and san diego for a week. Any suggestions of things to do, places to see??
yeah, go see Gina and have good times, send pics + divx thanks

i hate it because all i see in my head is her stupid faces that she makes when she sings
yo is anyone else feeling absolutely horrible right now???
like allergy horrible??
i have never had seasonal allergies and I don't know if this is allergies or a cold or a sinus infection
it's so bad
like i mostly feel fine i just can't breathe, i keep sneezing and my eyes are kinda watering
AND so i am on Zyrtec-D which is making me sooo drowsy but hey at least I can breathe, breathing is good
Is this allergies???? AND IF SO.. WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
i spent a considerable amount of time outside this weekend, and the air was filled with pollen, so I do know the "why"
but.. WHY NOW??? i have never had allergies. This is teh suck
Maybe you're not used to the Bucks County pollen. I have pollen all over my car and that makes me mad. I'm hosing it down like every other day.
hmm this could be
ugh
however the pollen i ingested this weekend was in NJ
and my throat kinda felt like i swallowed sandpaper followed by hot coals
yeah it was cool ........... NOT
yeah, you looked miserable yesterday. with your toilet paper roll. feel better, eh?
lol yeah that was funny hehe... i had no tissues... so i brought a roll.. lol..
ME! and it didn't help that they kept it 90+ degrees in my office today
ugh
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1wnOUH2jk8
good song, good video. all done in one extended cut. you know i love that, lol.
hey i've seen this before! i forget where tho. great song and video.
hey i wonder if you'd like Beach House
(no fancy extended cuts, though)
super low-fi minimal stuff. i'm not even kidding when i say that i could go on cakewalk right now and mock up the music to this song in 5 minutes, lol. it's charming. gotta hear more though.
yeah! great way of describing it. i've only heard a few of their songs, but i like 'em.
so annoying. last night, round trip newark to oahu in october was $275. Today its $750. so, um, two questions...
1. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!!!!!!?????
2. Why did i not book it!!????!?!?!?!?
What! How is that even possible! How can a ticket there cost less than to one on the mainland?
i dunno, apparently they were running some special deal and i totally missed out
The best time to buy plane tickets is at 12:01 am on a Wednesday. Seriously, try it.
Also, try checking travelzoo.com they always have excellant deals to hawaii that include hotel & airfare.
i'm going to :)
morning, all.
how was your long weekend?
very, very good. very busy. yours?
yeah, def. beautiful, beautiful weather. i don't think we'll have as nice a weekend all summer long.
we spent sunday and monday with my Uncle and his wife in the Bronx. went in service and to the Castle Hill congregation. Very nice and warm group there. Monday we went to the NY Botanical Gardens, a street fair in midtown, and dinner in the East Village.
sounds great. never been to the botanical gardens. should check it out. saturday night i visited some friends in franklin park. sunday i went on my friends boat, but it was too windy to wakeboard. grrr. monday i went to a bonfire at island beach state park. i'm pooped today.
i had my district convention. i am exhausted.
highlights of the district convention are as follows:
1. we get new stuff
2. we watch a drama
3. brother algian gives talks.
4. Giacomo owns a Jesus style robe.
also - this may go without saying- my back dislikes the chairs at the Stanley Theater.
Awesome! We don't have ours for a while yet.
Stanley's seats are certainly horribly uncomfortable.
It wasnt Jesus style... I would call it more of a Paul or James the brother of John style...
I knowww. i've noticed too that the seats up top are a bit smaller than the seats down below. i'm not even that tall [5'9] and the seats up there killed me.
This movie was just all right. too much indy iconography. the soft camera filters made me wince along with the overuse of "out-of-nowhere" moody lighting. too many stereotypical characters. lots of stale biscuit dialogue. it was apparent that it was filmed almost entirely in a studio. some of the action was a little TOO unbelievable. shia swinging from vine to vine with the monkey platoon almost made me run out of the theater screaming...
still, somehow i really enjoyed and it want to see it again soon.
the tarzan part is what pushed me over the edge from "dislike" to "extreme dislike".
i just realized i commented in the wrong place. but, yeah, that tarzan thing totally bummed me out. and you're right, dude--- if you like indy go pick up the trilogy before they make you buy the quadrilogy box set with kingdom of the crystal turd included. maybe they shouldn't have squeezed this one out... the first three were just too good.
Congrats Chase & Rachel!
Pictures from the wedding http://picasaweb.google.com/ianzabel/ChaseAndRachelMadisonSWedding

did you meet Ben at the wedding?
oh wow seriously? who is your brother in law getting married to? i didnt meet him.
wow, 2 weddings in one weekend?? that's rough
Ok, those pictures are beautiful. - but ian, i have to say my favorite is of the pictures you have up from brecken's wedding...esp. the ones me and hayley took. LOVELY!!! i wish i knew it was your camera we stole! oh and i will see you next weekend right?

love it. i'm so beautiful! HAHAHA.
well i will def see mikayla and maybe i will see you...we will see what happens.
No. 1 Dumbest: New Jersey
Average Score: 69.9%
For the first time ever, New Jersey drivers rank as the dumbest. And to throw salt on the wound, they have the lowest average score ever. No score has been below 70 percent before.
Random Fact:
While average test scores between the genders were similar, women were more likely to fail the test than men (20 percent versus 13 percent)
ho. lee. crap.
i was juuust about to post this... like right now...
i would have written:
I hated the last few Weezer albums, but it appears they're returning to that old Pinkerton vibe and THAT is something i endorse as that album is flippin' classic. It might be time to try Weezer again. Oh, and the video is funny.
wooow! the girl that they used for miss north carolina was SLAMMIN'!!!
/agreed
I think it's the actual girl. All of the actors in that video are the actual people, as far as I can tell. I think they hired them.
The new cd is terrible on the first listen but its alot like a radiohead cd that grows on you.They have songs in the style of all of there cd's and a whole new style. Overall its really good though, and I only have the 8 songs that leaked on a torrent site.
i have the 8 songs too, and my favorite by far is dangerous ... that's really good. and track 7 ... thought I knew.
You know, 7 years ago i dispised weezer. now i sort of enjoy them, a lot.
we were actually driving from from Chinatown last night and i was driving quite fast on the FDR to track 5 ... yeah good times, i think i scared lauren. sorry lauren!
have you found target?
yes, thank goodness. did i not post that?
the cat got out early tuesday morning. lauren cried non-stop (literally) and posted about 300 flyers, put an ad in the paper, we went door to door giving people flyers and spent hours search for the cat right after work until midnight and at 4 AM.
on saturday evening, a neighbor called us - we had left a flyer in their mailbox and Target was under their deck. He was actually facing off with their little Paris Hilton dog, so they gave him some milk and called us.
Lauren finally stopped crying, and things were much better. and the cat promptly bit me after i fed him.
aw man, im so glad you guys found him!
and you are the one that lost him huh? maybe thats why he bit you. lol
oh i'm so glad!! well not about the biting, but about him being found.
I love the song Dreamin' they actually just released it as a single. I think thats the fourth single from the cd. I think they might release every song as a single before the actual cd comes out, half of it is already out.
i forgot her name but Todd's aunt is in our new cong
Jer and Tammy
yeah small world right
what the...? weird ad on the homepage

www.ebay.com
what you didn't know you can buy JW's on ebay???
ebay just advertises for anything. since there's a story on the homepage about JWs, ebay picks that up and serves ads for it.
i dunno, i might just pull the ads off. they're not bringing in any money anyway.
why not? i thought they were?
has traffic declined?
oh yeah, traffic is down BIG time since I made the site private. I've made a total of $40 or so from the ads so far, but I don't get a penny of it until I make my first $100. which at the current rate will take about 10 years. haha
i'm sorry. :( time to donate?
I have to get a stress test and echo-cardiogram done. Yay. Hopefully nothing shows up. Been having pains in my left side and fatigue.
its probably stress. you are under a lot of stress...im sorry. i hope everything goes well w/the tests.
Has anyone been to cirqe du soleil? If so have you done the "Tapis Rouge" VIP thing, and is it worth it?
ive been to cirque....it was good and i would only see it again if it was in vegas. when we caught the show, it was in a tent...and there were port-o-potties....you dont want to pay $85 to see a "tent" show and have port-o-potties.
Ugh, yea, def not. This is on the Avenue of the Arts in Philly....at a theatre.
I haven't been to that particular cirque, but it's an amazing show, and I don't mind port-o-potties for one of the most amazing shows you'll ever see. Plus 85 is for front and center seats. you can save money by seeing the show from the side or back of the tent. Still amazing. Still fun. Way cheaper.
morning, ladies and gents
sooo this town is apparently really into soccer
it was crazy last night
Lauren and I went to see Indiana Jones last night ... I'm going to highly recommend the following:
- stay home and watch the old ones
- if you are tired of the old ones, watch National Treasure
if you don't believe me, spend your money and then come back here and you'll agree with me.
you've got to be kidding!!
ah man. I keep hearing bad things about this movie :(
say it ain't so!
It got good reviews. I don't get it. I think people are expecting too much. If you go in there expecting a reincarnation of Raiders then of course you'll be disappointed.
uhm. this is true.
Cmon dude! You just spoiled part of the movie for me!
i don't think i did at all.
You just mentioned aliens. Now I'm expecting Indy to meet ET. haha
and thanks for spoiling it for me, brotherman! lol. crap.
hahaha... What did I spoil? I haven't even seen it!!
you restated the same spoiler that you were complaining about. i deleted your post.
Lauren just came over to my cube and we re-discussed it. We have both come to the same conclusion as the one I mentioned in my first post.
i saw it. i thought it was really good. i wasnt crazy about the end, though.
Ok good. Since you and I loved Transformers, I trust your review.
I liked it. Superhero... you are lame.
i totally loved indy...just cant expect much...but it was good for "now". harrison ford looks HOT for being so hold....def not the young whipper snapper he was in the early ones...but still good.
this site has become really boring lately.
Topic - Why Kenny G. Sucks.

Hey guys, thanks for all your votes!! I got 2nd place. I'm in the top 5 so that's cool with me. WOOHOO!
So, a Columbian guy at my company is moving back to Columbia. He's had a rough past 7 years. His son died in the World Trade Center and it messed him up pretty bad. His personal life is a mess, although you wouldn't know that by seeing him at work. He's moving to Columbia in hopes of reflecting on things and straightening his life out. Anyway, I used his leaving and his issues as a good way to witness to him. I gave him a magazine on having peace of mind and another on death and is there anything after that. When I gave them to him he was touched. He gave me a hug and said he would read the magazines. He came back again an hour later to my cubicle and told me that what I did was the best thing anyone could do for him right now, or something to that affect. Hopefully the articles will help him cope and draw him to the truth.
awww that brought tears to my eyes!!! good job!! i do hope he contacts someone in columbia or one of the friends contacts him!
Yeah, he's a great guy. I could see him doing that. I'll have to ask him tomorrow if he read the mags. His last day is Friday.
excellent
I'm having chest pain today. Ugh... Made a docs appt for Thurs morning.
take care....could be stress....but still...take care of yourself!!!
About 5 years ago I had some pretty bad chest pain and went to the ER. The cardiologist there said I had mitral valve regurgitation. I got a second opinion and that doc said I was fine. So I would say now is a good time to get it rechecked.
our downstairs neighbor's daughter has a cat, she's like an indoor/outdoor cat, she is basically the reincarnation of my cat Munchkin, it's amazing
and her name is Miley.
Miley Cyrus.
so tommy lasorda was here and all the guys were just all over him asking him questions and taking pics...lol

alrighty then
this morning we took Mastodon for a walk and decided to stop and eat breakfast at this coffee shop
and last night we walked about two blocks to this SUPER delicious thai food place, and there was a jazz band playing at this place like two doors down
I LOVE DOYLESTOWN
i'm gonna visit, yo
yes! we want to have like a buuunch of people down in a few weeks, once the dust settles a bit. right now the place is in a bit of shambles, lol
ooooh pick us we want to come!
ok!
btw is this the town where Lauren and Tina spent 6 months or whateva? If so let me know I have some questions for them.
no they were in Hazelton
aww that looks like a quaint little town. sounds like everythings pretty close too! good job (even tho i still wish you guys were out here...)
yeah it's pretty cool. That place with the banner is a bar/restaurant, then there's the Gap, then another bar/restaurant, then if you make a left there down the street at the light, there's a indie movie theater, a bunch of other shops and artsy things
me loves
kinda looks like downtown fullerton or downtown redlands here....i think i may have to visit...
you moved and you're still around 2 hours away. philly is central to us now though. ;)
this video is awesome
and this song will forever be the song of Miami for me

OH and i just posted some pics on my blog www.kamharrisphoto.blogspot.com
and of course more on myspace if you're on it
excellent
yeah i LOVE this video
Kung Fu'd. The restaurant. Think about it.
you order your food, and its served up Kung Fu style. Hot Bowls of Wan Tan Soup are kicked to your table (or mouth if you so desire). Asian Salads 1 inch punched right into your gullet. Egg Roll nunchuks. Sushi Rolls punted from a safe distance, say 30 to 40 inches. Asparagus Spears fired by skilled, horse-mounted archers. Sliced tomato throwing stars thrown by ninjas dropping out of the ventilation. Heads rolling everywhere. And of course broccoli. everywhere....
haha, i love it
i'd totally eat there. the salad sounds delectable!
Haha... Did you make this place up or is it a real place? If it's not lets open one.
Yo Ian - good times last night with Mario Kart wii. I actually have two wheels, so maybe i'll have someone else over so we can have more than 2 people play.
Let me know anytime you want a rematch ... btw it's super-hard to catch up when you're way behind
if any of you girls are still on the fence about "trashing" your wedding dress......
check out what we just did to philly
i mean, in philly
but really, TO philly
i love the girl with the huge dangling turqoise necklace. it looks so awesome. and my favorite is the one of her when you shot it in a brick alley. awesome!! i may not be getting married but i might need to buy a dress.
ok so we went to see Nicole Atkins at "Blend" in Ridgewood over the weekend. It's a swanky "rich people" over 25 place, that strangely has a nice bar downstairs and a stage. Sort of like an older, more mature, upscale Maxwell's (in Hoboken). It's very clean, and I highly recommend the drive to this place if any of your favorite bands are playing there in the near future. Plus, you can talk to the band quite easily after the show. We've seen Nightmare of You there also.
So Nicole played, and it was very good - my favorite part was when she did a cover of the Doors "The Crystal Ship", which is a really good song that I haven't heard in a long time. She did all her songs, and some rare stuff too. There were a lot of scary hippie type girls that were REALLY weird and VERY drunk, also.
After the show we waited around for a few minutes and Nicole came to the merch table. We were with Tina and Adam, and Adam and Lauren just ran up to Nicole and started babbling incessantly about life, music, her album, promotion, and everything in between. I was actually a little creeped out. Nicole was EXTREMELY taken aback but got more comfortable as they all continued talking. Once they were done, I told her we found out about the music from our friend Kamila, who goes by the name "Mashed Potatoes". She was very grateful for the promotion, and says "Thank you".
haha that is funny and great

Hey guys, i need a good setting/intro for my talk on Ananias & Sapphira for next week. The talk is w/ a 14year old girl, so i was thinking something to do w/ school... like a bake sale to raise money for new computers for their school or something, and maybe she'd keep some of the money for herself, i dunno. Thoughts? Suggestions?
have her say that "some of the kids at school are planning on keeping the money from the girl scout cookies that they sold for themselves" ... because lord knows i love girl scout cookies
(if you are bothered by girl scout cookies you should eat some of them sometime)
haha, dork. Yea, i'm doing it on raising money for school computers i'm thinknig, cuz a witness wouldn't raise money for the troops or something. lol Or maybe i should do it, that they are trying to raise money for the people in Burma?
gr, getting started is the hardest part.
how about she killed someone and she's wondering if she should turn herself into the authorities... i bet nobody's ever done that
