Ack! Sorry about the video’s autoplay function. There’s no way to turn it off, apparently. Here’s a link to the video:

Lies and the Lying Liars who tell them. These are the people who so many Americans actually believe, any time they open up their yappers. It’s sad, and frightening.

We all know the BMV absolutely SUCKS! But did you know that they apparently carry on that tradition to their website? Here’s a quick example of the Indiana BMV’s website suckitude.

UPDATE: So, I just checked this again, and it’s apparently fixed. I recorded this video about 6 hours ago. Who knows when this will break again. It’s inevitable, knowing the BMV.

Hey! It’s my first “video blog!”

In which I talk about online communication, community building, and a few of the online tools I personally use to communicate online. This is stuff I’ve been thinking about heavily for a while. Much of the stuff I talk about in this video is all pretty basic to alot of people who spend alot of time online, but I felt I needed to share with those that may visit and just not know about some of it.

Links mentioned in this video:
My Facebook profile (friend me!)
My Twitter profile (let’s follow each other!)
My Flickr photostream (friend me!)
Wine Library TV.com
garyvaynerchuk.com

Links to some of my various other online profiles not mentioned in this video:
My Last.FM profile (see what music I’ve been listening to, and compare with your own! Discover new music!)
FriendFeed - a “one stop shop” for all my various profile updates! (it comes in handy)

Sorry about all the weird edits. The original version was almost 10 minutes long. I cut a bunch out because it just seemed too long. I wanted to keep it under 5 minutes. I cut out a bunch of of ranting about how Myspace has become an “online community cesspool”, about some of the benefits of using Facebook, why I like Twitter, finally, and lots more. I think I wanted to talk about too much. I promise subsequent video blogs from me will be more succinct and consistent. :-)

Let me know what you think! Anything you’d like me to talk about?

My band, Lines of Nazca, have released a new album and created yet another video. The new album is called Post Coital Glow. As usual, it’s not kid-friendly, it costs nothing and it will rock your socks off.

We have two new videos to go with the album. They rock, as well.

You can find the album & the videos very easily by clicking:

Check it one time!

People who know me know I don’t really talk about politics or “political pundits” very much, unless it’s just something that rubs me the wrong way. Today I stumbled across a video clip of Bill O’Reilly getting a very much deserved and stellar, if not pretty moving, verbal ass-kicking by Keith Olbermann. I am now a big Olbermann fan, and now even less of a fan of that smug, lying, condescending asshat O’Reilly. I mean, seriously, this just proves (yet again) what a jackass he really is, and anyone who watches him and follows him is equally douche-ey, in my opinion. Oh, and hey, Fox News, F you in the A for changing the transcript after the fact to cover his ass, and F you both in the A for never issuing an apology. This is not about “Right” vs. “Left”. This is about right vs. wrong. And I hope few people think Bill O’Reilly is right. This is also why I so rarely watch TV anymore. It’s just sad, really.

Since I don’t have cable, or even a TV with an antenna, I must either watch DVDs or watch shows I’ve retrieved from the internet, which I find myself doing more and more. I actually prefer it now, as I can watch stuff on my own time, and besides - my Dell 2005FPW looks better than my 10 year old TV (which is actually in storage at the moment anyway).

Wanna do the same? Here’s a list of your current (legal) options.

I should note that I have been known to obtain shows via Bittorrent if I can’t find them elsewhere… Take note, TV networks….
