Live from Big Seminar…. leave it to me to have goofy stories :)

I had a blast today at Armand Morrin’s Big Seminar 9. This is the largest internet marketing seminar around. It cost me a pretty penny, but well worth it. Armand is a friggin genius. As far as I’m concerned, I already got my money’s worth. I networked, got some great […]

New respect for Rosie - a great reason to have a blog…

So, yeah… I was bitching that “Who cares that Rosie quits” - one of my readers was kind enough to inform me that Rosie’s actually cool.. not just being greedy or whatever– she’s actually all about 1st ammendment rights. Turns out she believes - and I support the theory - that 9/11 was […]

Rosie O Donnell Quits The View….. Virgina Tech killer has 32 kills… hmmm….

Personally, the news media has burnt me out. I just spoke to an international traveler, and we discussed how the news is different all over the rest of the world… i.e. we don’t hear a LOT of stuff that’s happening in the world. We have a biased, propaganda-spouting news system here. It’s […]

Wednesday night- funny, fun, sad.

I went to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. A friend asked me if I wanted to go, for my adventure, and to support him. Well… when someone asks me if I want to do something for my adventure, and I haven’t done it before.. the answer is just about always yes.

ANOTHER crazy night of shooting. Who’d have thunk I’d get TWO such similar letters in one night?

Dropped car off at shop. Got crappy rental. Watched James Bond. Tried writing. Went and shot Thrive for Jonathan. Had lots of people recognize me, and introduce themselves- I had already approved them on MySpace… but never met, or even spoke before. It’s nice to be recognized. Went to Havana. 1st […]

Florida Bound. Surprised Delilah. Got a little Scare ourselves.

So, to avoid traffic, we left Atlanta at 4:45am, and drove through the darkness into Florida. I called Delilah from near Gainesville to see what time she’s getting to Tampa at. It was going to be her 1st party with this new lounge, “Chateau Prive” - and it also happened to be […]

This trip is so worth it! The people are awesome!

I love my friends in Florida. I have to say though, that they (like me) are always working… I often felt that I was pulling teeth to get people to make time to go to an event I wanted– i.e. a dinner party I threw, or to go bowling, or bungee jumping…. It’s difficult, […]

Awesome Movie: Kung Fu Hustle! 5.5 out of 6 couches!

I just watched this tonight at Derek’s, after we watched some Bill Maher Real Time (Where I found out that one of the people in charge of 93 justices in the USA has no experience, and went to a religious university that’s owned by a televangelist, and is ranked really low on any real […]

How to blow up a frog with a flame thrower

A sneak preview of my DVD, and to show you some neat stuff for my Workshop

Breaking Mom n Dad in to SMS Texting.

You’d never believe it, but I was a brat growing up! Heck… I still am! But now I’m a nice person… a lot more compassionate and caring of others’ feelings, very helpful, and a much better listener. I’m sure that no parent wants to hear that their 30 year old kid, rather than […]

I was caught Snorting Coke!

Oh man! They took a shot of me snorting coke, and posted it! I”m so screwed! What do I do?

Well.. at least it’s diet!
This is a(nother) collaboration I did with AskJonathanOnline.com to create this idea I had…. it’s hard to shoot AND model at the same time… so hanging out (and couchsurfing) with […]

Ate an Australian Candybar

Violet Crumble… they arrived by UPS for Andrew, Couch 28’s Roommate. I brought the package in, and later Andrew told me the story of how his ex who was from South Africa, and lives now in Australia sent him those as a gift. I feel very special that he would share them with […]

Stomach Virus- wheee!

couch 28 was not feeling so good this weekend. He was sure he had gotten food poisoning from this Chinese restaurant…. We wBrent to Fever on Saturday night to shoot the Baby Brazil fashion show, and his stomach was making all sorts of nasty gurgling sounds. Well… Sunday I was pretty tired, and […]

Child Abuse!

This was just hillarious! I had to post it! (since it Autoplays… I put this CONTINUE thing here, so it doesn’t piss off everyone who views my site repeatedly… just click to continue, and enjoy a hillarious flick!

I pissed off all the Atlanta hotties!

It was a riot! The other night (Thursday) at Havana, I was working on Delilah’s flyer. I had promised Delilah that I would have it done that day/night sometime, so that’s what was going to happen. For that reason, I did not bring my camera. I had so many of the […]

Rock DJ - If you need ideas to impress the girlies on the dance floor :)

Since I posted that “She is Madonna” video, it reminded me of this other song I really dig by Robbie Williams, Rock DJ. The song is cool, the video totally trips me out though! It may look like Robbie Williams is stripping, but keep watching, it gets good (right about 2 minutes 54 seconds). […]

I love you baby, but face it she’s Madonna. Robbie Williams.

Madonna just won’t get out of our lives Not that she should necessarily. I was listening to Israeli Radio, and I can’t get enough of this song, “She Is Madonna” - has an 80’s sound, but modern. Cute lyrics.

(Chorus:)
I love you baby
But face it she’s Madonna
No man on earth
Would say […]

Steve Jobs Vs. Bill Gates Fight!

As Victoria would say– “Too much Funny!”

Trusted Comuting– the future of device interaction… good?

I just ran across this amazing animation:Trusted Computing by Benjamin Stephan and Lutz Vogel. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and thought you might too

Story:
Trusted Computing - Sounds great…. is it?
If the industry doesn’t trust you, why should you trust them?

4-20 Flyer for Delilah! Happy b-day baby, I luv ya!


I’m blogging from a nightclub!!!!! YES! I go EVERYWHERE now!

So… I bought a Sprint Wi-Fi card…. and I am working on a project AND going out…. that way I don’t let the peeps down, AND I get my stuff done. Neat huh? I’m the only one who’s here (Havana) with a laptop. Great music. nice lights. Got hugs from […]

emailed FERGIE!

You know Fergie! Everyone knows Fergie. She’s the one who made the Black Eyed Peas so damn popular… and then you don’t hear about them much, only her… She’s on the cover of all the magazines, and she’s hot! She’s styling. All the little girls want to be her. […]

Treadmills / Ellipticals … I know why they have those Peak thingies.

Yeah… that thing that looks like an EQ Monitor on the Treadmills / Ellipticals… that’s supposed to be hills!!! When I use that equipment in Florida, it never made sense. I went jogging today (finally!)… and they got HILLS!!!! Now I know what my parents meant by “We had to walk to school, […]

Duke Lacrosse Scandal - My thoughts.

Rape is a serious issue. I would probably beat the crap out of someone that raped someone… the thing is though, that there are 3 sides to every story. Your side, my side, and the truth. I remember when the Duke Lacrosse Scandal came out in the news last year, I was […]

My mom and dad are also traveling! I’m so proud!!

“Ori…. you’re crazy! You’re DRIVING around the country, staying with strangers, trying new foods, doing dangerous things….” is a regular thing for me to hear. Not to mention how long it took me to convince my folks that I’m not really crazy for doing what I”m doing. Well, today I called ‘em, […]

Xanax - never again

I mentioned that not all my adventures were legal. Someone gave me a Xanax last night, “a full bar” for those who know measurements. I washed it down with a Redbull/Vodka (no models/funnel this time), and I was relaxed…. hanging out… good crowd @ Mood Lounge last night. The last thing I […]

A quick explanation of why I do what I do…. and I ate Frog Legs.

My slogan is “Amazing adventures / Amazing Photography” - My SubSlogan is “Living Vicariously For The Rest Of Us” — and it’s true! I’m out there living my life. I create my life on a daily basis… What do I want to do? What do other people have that I can do […]

Lucky Number Slevin- 6 out of 6 couches!

Great movie. I watched it last night at Vesna’s. I was dead tired, but I stayed up through the whole thing, as it was so enjoyable. A lovable bunch of Cliche’ characters with cliche speeches… but it works! It’s a pretty elite cast of characters as well… with Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, […]

Another reason to love Google

I thoroughly enjoyed this Take the 10 seconds needed to follow these directions:
1. go to www.google.com
2. click on “maps”
3. click on “get directions”
4. type “New York” in the first box (the “from” box) on the left
5. type “London” in the second box (the “to” box) on the right
6. click on “get directions”
7. scroll down […]

I got a Technorati account. Favorite me if you got one.

Technorati is a blog ranking / finding service. Lots of people use it to tell others of what blogs are awesome. I’m a relatively new blog… but I know I can make it to the top 100,000… if not the top 10,000… if not the top 1,000… you get the point. But […]

Golf Majors …. Strippers…. Drinks … and other things that happen that surprise people.

Vesna picked me up last night at 11:30pm, and we headed to the “Pink Pony” - a stripper club that everyone’s been telling me about. Know how I like funny adventures, and quirky stories? Well.. we picked up her photographer friend, Joey, on the way… then we get there, we sit down by […]

I’ve doubled in Age, and pizza has doubled in price!

Was just reminiscing about how when I was a kid (middle school), I’d always go to my buddy Joe’s house, and we’d order pizza, and rent movies. Movies used to be 3 for $5, and pizza was 2 for $9.95 + tip. Now, while watching Jackass #2, and Being John Malkovich (again), I […]

Jackass #2 is just WRONG!

I have seen Jackass #1, and it made me say “Oh My God!” a time or two… A lot of laughs.
Jackass #2 had me covering my face in shock for half the movie. “Oh My God” doesn’t begin to cover the shock that this movie can generate! I was laughing my ass […]

Peachtree Camera Repair got me on my feet QUICKLY!

Yeah… ain’t that a bitch? This wonderful equipment that I spend all my $ on, and rely on so heavily… it’s not as indestructible as I am! My Flashes BOTH broke during the same day One of them broke when my camera fell out of someone’s car as they opened the trunk… […]

Saturday preview… Different ways to ingest Vodka

Morning:
7:30am. After 45 minutes of sleep. Start the day off with a Red-Bull…. Awww heck, I”m working with a bunch of photographers, let’s add some Vodka. Let’s get a photographer, and some models, and make a thing of it!

Night:
When “Drunk” one can always enjoy a session at the Oxygen Bar (I’ve always […]

Six Flags is Full! Argh!

So… I wake up at 5:30 am, after going to sleep at 3am. I was tired from dancing, and thirsty from all the Hookah Smoke from last night. Got ready, got ready to go, and Dax was kind enough to text Skiz that we shouldn’t go… Turns out that they reached Capacity -10,000 […]

ATL = Dance

I swear… before I came to Atlanta, I was shy about dancing. I’m not shy to admit that I required 3-4 Long Island Iced Teas before I’d consider dancing, and then I’d be all awkward about it. I’ve heard I’m a good dancer before… but it must’ve been when I’ve been in […]

IE / Firefox / Crash

My site apparently was kicking people off who were on Internet Explorer. I did not know this, but was thankfully on the phone with Delilah, when she checked out my site. It took 2 days to figure it out, but I’ve done it, the site is back up and running, even for IE […]

Passover - The sweetest random act of kindess done for me.

As you know, I’m couch surfing around the country. I’m on Couch 24 again, although I’ve made it 27 couches so far. This means that I am away from my normal friends and family. Here in Atlanta though, I feel at home. I’ve met so many cool people, so quickly, […]

COME PARTY WITH ME AT SIX FLAGS– THIS THURSDAY— FOR FREE!!!

I’m CouchSurfing through Atlanta right now, and I’m crashing with various awesome people. Thursday we’re going to Six Flags over Atlanta. The local radio station is having a “Ditch Day” - Skip work, and get in for free. I will be there with SkizzyPhoto as well as many of my other […]
