OFF TO BURNING MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Published by August 27th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsI am not heading to Thailand right now… Brett’s been hard to get a hold of, I’ve been busy traveling, and I’ve been forming a team to grow my business some more… Marketing, Web Design, a few products, and of course growing Couch Surfing Ori — sponsorships, partnerships, and forming a TV show. So… […]
My buddy Riplee has had some hard times. I’ve mentioned him before…. Well.. he’s been the most stable over the last 2 years since he’s been with this lovely girl, Brandie. Through hard times, they’ve committed to each other, but it’s been tough. He’s been telling me for ages of how […]
Colorado was cool…. a crazy drive there, but then I just hung out for a few short days. June was a great host and got me slightly hooked on Nip/Tuck. The big adventure here was going to Mesa Verde. Beautiful drive there, the park itself is lovely. Mesa Verde is where […]
Long drive, indigestion, and getting pulled over
Published by August 22nd, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsSo… I made it to Colorado last night… er.. this morning at 3am… 4am where I was, since I time traveled–er drove through yet another time zone. I had woke up at 11am at Couch 51’s, after having gone to sleep at 6am yet again. We did a photo shoot until 5:15am. […]
Roller Derby, Tornado, Lightning, and Burlesque.
Published by August 21st, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsI woke up late again — guess I needed the sleep. The whole 6am bed-time thing is a tiny bit ridiculous, but… when you’re surrounded by cool awesome people, and all the action’s at night… you can expect this kind of stuff. I got my camera, brushed my teeth, and it was off […]
I am in Omaha, Nebraska. I’ve been studying some very powerful web-development methods. I made this site that you’re looking at… but the new site should be really damn good! Yes, I’m going to totally replace this one for much more functionality and organization.
Just so you know what I’m up […]
When I was hanging out at Couch 42, this gorgeous model, Vibes Naella, had contacted me to see if I’d like to work with her. I liked her portfolio, so said “yeah sure” and she came over to Couch 42’s place. Krista did the makeup for me, and I set up the lighting, […]
Iowa is a pain in the neck! Training hard.
Published by August 14th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsI had stayed up late making my new image. So, by the time I woke up, the guys had already gone running their 5 miles. I decided I’d go run my 7.6 miles. When you have your mind set on something, you may sometimes forget to check that the temperature is a […]
Alcohol Abuse - a very serious and personal entry.
Published by August 13th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 Comments“When your stomach hurts, and you’re like ‘aaaaaaaarrrrgggggggh’, and you have to poop, you just have to go to the bathroom, run the bath tub to hear the soothing sound, then the world feels better, and then you have to walk around naked to let it air out!” New quote by Couch 48 after a […]
Meteor Shower… storm… like fireworks tonight! Go look up!

Shooting stars are seen on Earth as our planet enters a dust cloud ejected by a comet, in this case, Swift-Tuttle. The dust burns up as it enters the atmosphere creating natural fireworks in the night sky.

So…. after the fights, and having Brett be such a cool sidekick, I was hanging out with Brett and Diaz. The discussion was something about that they are going to train in Muai-Thai kickboxing, in Thailand, from September to January. I said I’d take pics of their Thailand fights if they cover […]
Training with Mixed Martial Artists…. THAILAND??… Drinks… Up to Couch #50
Published by August 9th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsThe day started with a run. I ran with Mike “Mini” Van Meer (Couch 47), and Brett (Couch 48) while Charles Diaz rode his bike while making Tommy run way harder… sprint… push-ups… he ran him really hard. Brett had Staff infection a while back, and his knee is pretty damn swolen, so […]
More craziness in the country… (slideshows)
Published by August 8th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 2 CommentsWell… I’ve not had any excitement-free days. You already read about Friday…. The next day was also filled with explosive photography. Actually.. wait.. that was the day after the next. The next day was actually getting lost in the cow pastures and hunting for various mushrooms, getting lost during a lightning […]
I was showing Couch 49 a bunch of cool things about photography, composition, depth, working with work lights, and of course my take on what makes a cool photo… basically, photography lessons. Two days later, it was time to show him some basic photoshop. I took out the solid black background, put in […]
Couch 49 - The Country Life (archery, cow poop, flame throwers, cigars, cuisine)
Published by August 6th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsWhen I asked Couch 49 why he chose to contact me and nominate his couch, it was out of curiosity about “Why do people want to participate in this? Like… Why did you answer my SOS and offer your couch?” I gotta say, his reply made me smile - “Well… when you see […]
