Exercise?

By Ryan on September 30, 2008 8:30 PM | 2 Comments | No TrackBacks
Woot. 2 posts in one day.

So, I need to get the motivation to start going to our apartment complexes gym and working out.  I am getting out of shape, and it needs to stop.  I have always always wanted (don't we all?) to have the motivation to go get a great body, but never had the continuous motivation.  In college, I payed to have a membership to the school gym, and for a while, went a couple times a week.  But after a while, I stopped going.  

I have access to a small gym here at my apartment complex, and I should use it.  I just need to set a schedule to do such a thing.  I was going to go tonight, but didn't.  Big suprise.  Maybe next week.  I ordered some new pants to work out in, in hopes to encourage me to use them.  Yeah, I am thats kind of lame, but it might work for a little while.

Sorry for all of the videos, but they are too powerful to ignore.




Goodbye SK

By Ryan on September 27, 2008 10:54 PM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
Today I finished my last shift as a GSM for Studios Showkeeping.  It was really hard.  I made it okay through most of the day.  I was the last manager for SK to leave, and when I listened to a goodbye voicemail from a co-worker Paula, it hit me.  I started crying right there in the middle of Ops 3 at 10:00 at night.  It wasn't time to leave.  It sucks.  

I am going to miss everyone on the Showkeeping team.  It has been soo much fun.  I made such amazing friends, and learned so much about myself.  I will never ever forget anyone.  I will never be able to repay those who helped me grow so much as a person. 

Thank you.

And I work at 6:45... shadowing Tower open.

I found this in a box of my old stuff today.  I am glad I am certified to operate the Apple II.

McCain Cancels on Letterman 1.5 Hours Before Show-time

By Ryan on September 25, 2008 10:55 AM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
Sorry to all of a sudden be posting a lot of youtube videos, but I saw this and had to.  I have always loved Letterman, and when McCain decided to "suspend his campaign," I guess that meant Letterman as well (even though, McCain just went down the hall to CBS news).

1 Day Left

Today is my Friday.  I have a three day weekend starting tomorrow.  However, this morning was my last morning opening with the veteran cast of Sunset boulevard.  I broke the news to them this morning while pushing water in TOTS.  They were all very nice to me, and told me I "would be statused in no time."  I will never truly know what the cast at Studios Showkeeping thought of me.  But I like to think that I at least left somewhat of a good impression by the end of my 7 months with them.  

I am so sad that my time with this team as been cut to an abrupt end.  I didn't get to know the cast as much as I wanted.  I really feel like I should have had more time.  I was at home on the Studios Showkeeping team, but now I am being told it is time to move on.

So, now I return to Sunset with a positive outlook and attitude for the future.  I begin my hunt for a new TA, and a hunt for a new park to coordinate at in the mean time, to gain exposure and experience.

Although, I am not afraid to admit: I am very sad that Saturday night, is my last night.  I am being forced to leave my home. :(

Microsoft starts Apple Attack Ads

By Ryan on September 19, 2008 5:23 PM | 2 Comments | No TrackBacks
Not that I can really blame them, but Microsoft has started a advertising campaign to attack Apple's "I'm a Mac/I'm a PC" ads.  The first started out with a Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld ad that left everyone saying "wtf?".  Microsoft pulled the ads, and fired Sienfeld.  

Now... Micorosoft has changed tact, and started a set of attack ads to say "I am a PC."  All I have to say, is: they are good.  Microsoft finally figured it out.  They show real people all over the world, using PCs in their lives.  Its just too bad that the commercials and advertisements themselves were made on Macs.  

The real question from these well designed ads is: Will it work?  I would venture to say no.  Microsoft is trying to play the victim card.  It is the largest company in the world, and it is trying to remind the world that people still use PCs.  The ads do not attempt to show why people should stay with Microsoft, or why they think their product is better.  These ads just tell the world that lots of people use PCs.  

Another fun thing to think about, is how scared Microsoft must be right now.  Thats a good sign for Apple me thinks.
