The Most Nature Ever Seen On My Blog

Aug 6 2012

It’s gotten much more consistent around here eh, my best for certain. After 5 years of videos and 3 years of blogging, I think finally have figured out a system, and almost have the hang of running it. Exciting for sure!

I’m managing my time better, getting less burned out, finding a balance with my new 5-blog-categories approach, and I still have the same amount of passion that I started with in 2007, which is a lot. I’m feeing good. The next step is to add money, start selling some real estate around here. And look into the auto-journalist avenue. I’d like that.

Anyway, that’s what I’ve been daydreaming about this weekend.

My Weekend is the Opposite of Vegas

Aug 5 2012

Look, nature. And a tiny town.

When in a new place, the first thing I do is get a local paper. Now I know what’s happening, just happened, and get a feel for the type of people and place.

In this paper I found a gun flyer, a train that de-railed and spilled coal everywhere, and above is their annual Summer Fair. See, opposite.

I’m still in America btw, home soon.

It’s been a great, quiet restful weekend. Hope you can say the same.

Got bit by a bee. And video edited.

Have a great Sunday!

Things from My Week in Vegas

Aug 2 2012

Some outfits.

I always visit the jewellery stores, one of my only material weaknesses.

This line is a favourite.

Check out the lineup to see Batman 5 days after it opened BOOM. Had the theatre to myself. Review: I loved it.

It’s the only superhero story I like, because he is a normal human who turns himself into more.

I gamble on only two games: ‘Wheel of Fortune’ slots, and video poker. Video Poker has maybe the best odds in the casino.

Look at the purple circle first column, the rule is: you want a 9/6 machine, then an 8/5, don’t bother with anything lower.

I’m good at the latter, but really, it’s just pattern recognition.

I have in my head a whole life-strategy-is-like-video-poker-strategy-there’s-many-parrells-video in my head to make, there really are.

One of my favourite nights was Thursday Night #NotSurprising (if we are just meeting, I say it every week because it is: Thursdasy Night is the best night of the week).

That’s right, silence! It’s ridiculously hard to find here.

This is the penthouse of a casino off the strip, where check THIS out :O

How is that even possible at a casino? Where are the insurance people?

Then, oh THEN there was a pool table. I love to play pool.

And I played some of the best pool of my whole life.

I couldn’t miss. Not even being dramatic, it was Hollywood movie shots I was making happen. After one particularly amazing combo I yelled, “you guys are getting this, right?!”. I was the zone.

And that’s it, Vegas tada the end.

Never been a fan, but I seem to always end up here; that’s 14-ish times now. Here’s a post from last year.

Vegas, to me, is: over-the-top-over-stimulating, this shiny delusion that brings out the entitled dbag side of people, and just, excess is gross. But it’s the world’s conference centre. See you again soon I’m sure.

I Slept for 2 Straight Days

Jul 31 2012

No dramatics; since Sunday night almost straight through till now. Needed it. I feel like my normal self again.

I didn’t spend all week partying, and still Vegas sucks it out of you. It’s over-the-top over-stimulating. I bet if you lived there, your life would pass by far too fast.

Like my new jogging pants? I went with a lighter grey this time.

Blog posts coming soon:

– Black Hat & DefCon
– finding silence in Vegas
– Apple’s first ever talk at Black Hat / iOS Security
– my trip to Vegas – includes GPS map of my Saturday night that’s awesome

Hope it was a good Tuesday, TTYT!

New Sidebar Art

Jul 24 2012

The best way to get to know me is in my sidebars.

I’d like to throw a KeriBlog party, and I’ll print off all my sidebar art and nail them along a wall in one long continuous row, tada, now my party is an artshow, too.
