Mother Plucker Returns!!

In honor of a dear friend who is recovering from surgery and undergoing some additional treatments, I am posting her one and only starring role in a major film... well, major for the participants anyway, titled "What the Cluck." This is an honest to goodness film, shot on 16mm film and edited on a flatbed. Ah, the good ol' days. Later transferred to video tape and now digitized.
Depending upon the interest, I will post the back story on how this film came to be (and why there were chickens in a San Francisco back yard). It's quite a tale (as Chris Smith can attest) and a shining example of Lynn's "go for it" spirit.
I don't know how long I can keep it posted since I don't have music rights to two of the songs included in the film, but, what the hell, I'll keep it up until I get a cease and desist order.

Enjoy, and if you have way to show it to Lynn at Coventry Park, please do so. I can play it for her on my iPhone on Thursday, Nov 4, but someone with a laptop would make for a better viewing experience. Thanks.

Busy Week, Thanks to Bioneers Conference

Worked at the annual Bioneers event in San Rafael last week, thru Sunday night. Very educational and inspiring. Plus good, free coffee each morning thanks to Cafe Mam from Eugene, OR. I bought their Bioneers Blend, Cafe Mocho and Royal Espresso... since I only see them once a year.
Got a few photos, weather was no cooperative the first few days...

Photos taken with my iPhone.










Official coffee of the Bioneers event. Love their Cafe Mocho blend.








Lots of music around as well.

Fun With An iPhone

My friend Thomas, owner of Focus Audio Visual in San Rafael, put this pic together with his iPhone 3G and an app called Panarama (I think). Taken during the video taping of the Marin Municipal Water Districts recent water conservation symposium.

Oakland's Fenton Ice Cream Shop Has Role in Movie "UP."

Anyone who has seen "UP" may have missed the reference to Fentons in Oakland (I won't give anything away) so in an effort to be of assistance to people curious, I visited Fentons last week and took the following photos. The sundae was delicious. They make their own ice cream in the rear of the kitchen, complete with glass walls so you can view the process. My BLT lunch was excellent as well.

Attention Star Wars Fans!!

Found an incredible little Star Wars item on a British web site, link below. Perfect for when you're in a meeting where the phones have to be off but you would like to know when you get a call. Also a good way to let other people know just how "ahead of the curve" you are.

Iphone has arrived!

Learning how to answer without hanging up on people and downloading fun apps.. like the spirit level one... which is very useful when setting a tripod up, if it doesn't have a spirit level of its own.

ATT Now Says iPhone Has Shipped!!

What an amazing turn of events... one day after getting the backordered notice, here comes an email saying that the iPhone has shipped, complete with FedEx tracking number... so now I'm just keeping an eye out for the truck to show up... then the learning curve begins!!

Now, if Apple would only come up with a way to use Skype on the iPhone.

Still Waiting for iPhone!

Yes, I bought a 3g 8gb from ATT's employee program but have yet to receive it!! They promised 2-5 days, has now been over 10 days... my friend Thomas Savellit at Focus Audio Visual, has one and has been showing me some of the apps!! The GPS-Google Earth combination works great!
I'll get a pic up of me using it if I ever receive it.
