John Woo pidgins

If only I could photoshop out the tractor and replace it with a tank or muscle car…

This one photo made my day.

I had originally planned to do a short photo walk in the afternoon but had to abandon the excursion last minute. With that I thought my chance of getting decent photos today was gone. But what do you know, right in my own backyard!

2008 Olympics badminton men’s final videos

I was never able to view the 2008 Olympics Badminton men’s final match online because NBC never hosted that particular video. Thanks to Internet and YouTube, now I can:

I am just as skinny as Lee Chong Wei, why can’t I play badminton like him?

I am a Fujianese just like Lin Dan, why can’t I play badminton like him?

And since I am a skinny Fujianese, shouldn’t I play twice as well as either Lin Dan or Lee Chong Wei? Or as good as Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei combined?

Star Trek trailer

While I have been a fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager, I was never that into Star Trek: The Original Series.  In the original series, the word ‘adventure’ in the phrase ‘space adventure’ needs to be in quotes because things looked too easy – whatever the problem, just send in Captain James T. Kirk.

As such I was not that keen in the Star Trek movie coming out this year, a movie that is based on characters from the original series.  I had seen some trailers online but mostly with speakers muted.  Boy what a difference a good sound track can make.  I am now actually interested in the movie after watching this latest trailer with audio:

The space battle looks amazing.

I wanted to take pictures, she wanted to play, so we ended up with this one-handed, camera-away-from-my-eyes, randomly focused shot.

Sunset walk

I took this photo today while “walking” the dogs on a nearby trail.

Memory stairs

I used to walk down these very stairs to go for lunch.
