    Skiing will save the Olympic games.

    Hear me out. The Rio olympics are looking like they are going to be a mess, right? The water is too polluted for sailing events. The Russians are being caught and banned for doping. There are attacks by gang members. Shit hasn't been finished. People are scared to go. Brazil is turning into an...

    Velodrome / Track cycling

    Any of you folks into hitting up the banks out there? I recently picked up a track-worthy bike for the first time in a couple years since moving back from Oregon and I'll be getting back into it (Sacramento's building a new Velodrome).

    Not Another Mass Shooting...

    After this whole thing with the mass shooting in Oregon, it hit pretty close to home yet again. I went to school just south of there, and lived in that part of Oregon for 4 years out of my life. I know people from Roseburg. I know people who actually went to the school where this happened. Not...

    If you use a GH-whatever, get this lens...

    I'm probably spilling some beans here, but man, it's such a sweet deal and you guys have to jump on it if you shoot m4/3 cameras.. One of my favourite lenses that I've owned for my FD system has been the 35-105 f3.5 FD lens. It's relatively sharp through the range, affordable as hell, a bit...

    Switching back to Canon? Using both systems?

    I'm having an annoying personal debate going on. in the last year or so, I've been shooting property photography off/on for landlords, homeowners, and realtors. I've been using a 20-35mm lens for most of these, and it's done pretty damn well, but so many times I end up in a situation where all...

    WTB: a massively explosive equatorial Volcanic Eruption. Seriously.

    Every time there has been a massive volcanic eruption, the following few years, tend to be big winter seasons with awesome snow. The last time we had a massive, explosive, holy shit eruption was Pinatubo in 1991. This shit was so massive, that global temps decreased by half a degree C, and...

    Who's in Sacramento right now? Shoutout

    I never do these things, but when someone has an NS sticker on their car, and they're literally 2 blocks away from my house, I have to be that guy, I guess. Either way, just know you've been banned.

    Kim Jong Un is recruiting women for his "Pleasure Squad".

    So, tonight I was riding back from working on my website at the coffee shop and when I got to all of 4 blocks from home, some lady completely blows a stop sign and smashed me right in the hip, sending me through the air ragdoll status. I luckily rolled out of it mostly and didn't have a serious...
