In recent months this blog has tended to stray just a bit from it’s original intention of being something that I mostly want to have fun with. Therefore I am not a hamster will be returning to pursuing that goal somewhat more than I have been of late. I started to think that with the elections are over it’ll be a bit easier to come up with lighter, funnier stuff but frankly, it’s never really TOO difficult.

I’ve recently gotten very interested in making videos. Largely because I’ve been learning how to do some cool visual effects. One good example is this video in which I finally managed to achieve the Star Trek TOS style transporter effect.

Video is great. There’s a lot you can do with it. I have for example come to very much appreciate video tutorials that you can find on YouTube, Metacafe and probably any video sharing site. There’s been a bunch of them that I’ve found very useful.

What it’s not is McCain’s or Obama’s position on any of the issues central to this election such as jobs, the economy, the price of fuel, alternative energy, the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan or even whether or not they’re going to agree to debate in the “anytime anywhere” kind of spirit that they were talking about some time ago.

I’ve come to really like living in really-small-town-USA. There’s a definite advantage to it. Life runs at a slower pace and there’s a lot less stress than there is with city life. Of course, I am not a hamster, I know it’s not all perfect. There are many ways in which [...]

It’s an interesting type of e-store… it specializes in all manner of stands and mounting hardware for everything form [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted a video here and when I saw this one I just had to share it here. It’s a music video that features Agent Smith from The Matrix. I can only imagine how much work it took to achieve this effect. I am not a hamster, [...]
