Green Mountain Code Pink


Mohiyi Mir - Mobile Version!


A happily-betrothed, non-violent, counter-dominant, left-liberal, independent, vulgar, possibly charismatic, not entirely insufferable, quasi anarcho-libertarian Quaker daddy who is rather full of himself shares his self-righteous take on parenthood, photography, politics and other esoterica.

Lo alecha ha-m'lacha ligmor, v'lo atah ben chorin l'hibateyl mimenah.

It's Ticking Away With My Sanity

Since Cairo and I were at the camp for a few days I didn't get to shoot the Intersection yesterday, but I did this afternoon. While I was out for that I photographed a farmer, uh... doing farming stuff on her tractor.

I've also decided to try a project similar to Intersection, albeit automated, using the webcam I have setup at the camp1. I plan on archiving shots from the same 3 times every day and putting them together into a movie showing the change of seasons throughout the year, not unlike what they do over at Playing With Time. I'm thinking I might do this in lieu of making a movie out of the Intersection shots, but maybe not. Well, I don't have to decide right now.

1 - It appears to be experiencing technical difficulties right now. Oy, I was just up there and it was working fine! Fricking WinXP... [Update: whoohoo! Looks like my cunning plan of scheduling an automatic daily reboot did the trick.]

I love web cams. I could watch the BBC cam of London when my son was there, and even found one cam in Prague.
This cam was trained on a fire we had two years ago. It was amazing to see it during the night. http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~obs/towercam.htm#imagetop
And hang in there over the trolls...those who resort to bad words and rude behavior are those who have already lost the argument and want to vandalize things. To see them froth and spew is actually amusing; they don't even realize how much of themselves they are exposing.
So to the trolls I recommend watching the keep sequence in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Pretend that I am John Cleese. (Is that subtle enough, ntodd?)

Oh, I love Mt. Wilson!

Yeah, I adore Fremlin. A very entertaining child and clearly a future leader of the GOP.

Perfect.
