The 2008 Georgia Renaissance Festival

Tomorrow (Saturday, May 17) Lyndsay and I will be embarking on a trip to Atlanta to spend the day at the Georgia Renaissance Festival in Atlanta. We will spend the day with friends watching jousts, taking in horse exhibitions, a sword swallower, and eating a variety of foods. Also we will get to see folks demonstrating medieval artisans such as a blacksmith.

The festival runs from April 12 to June 1 and operates on weekends. Each weekend has a particular theme and this weekend’s theme is Pirates! So we will get to celebrate Talk Like a Pirate Day a little early this year! We will be leaving tomorrow morning and return some time in the evening. We plan on taking plenty of pictures and sharing them here and on Lyndsay’s site.

Strange Song, Cool Video

This is a music video for the song “Again & Again” by The Birds and The Bees (I never heard of them either) that was made completely on a Mac. What I mean is all of the effects and camera shots were created using applications that come natively on a Mac. It obviously took a lot of time to make this. I am impressed (though only with the video; the song just ain’t my style).

Live the Dream

There are a whole lot of “guy” stereotypes out there. These make for easy jokes, even among guys themselves. There are stereotypes such as all men like getting together with their buddies to snack, drink beer, and watch a Sunday football game. Another stereotype is that when guys get together they burp and fart a lot (sorry, ladies I couldn’t think of any good euphemisms for these). Let’s see, what are some more? Oh, there’s the stereotypes that guys only like movies with high body counts, half-clad women and lots of cussing. I am reminded of TBS when they used to advertise their “Movies for Guys Who Like Movies” and the films shown were always those types of action films. Another stereotype is that men have certain dream sports cars that they lust over. Some lucky ones get to own their dream car (and they give a female name and treat it like a child).

Michael J. Fox “Frighteners” Blooper

As many of my readers know I am a big Michael J. Fox fan. Back to the Future is my absolute favorite movie of all time. Let me put it into perspective for you. I do not have a middle name. But once when I was a kid I begged my mom to legally change my name to include the middle name Martin, so that I could go by Marty. So am I big fan? You bet.

The following video is a hilarious clip I found where Fox and director Peter Jackson talk about one of the memorable bloopers that took place when they were filming The Frighteners. There are a couple of four letter words dropped so make sure the kids aren’t around.

Computer TV

As Lyndsay mentioned in a recent post of hers, we have successfully connected our Macbook laptop to our high-definition LCD television. It all started when we found out that our Skyangel satellite service was changing dramatically. So we had to figure out something different.
