Rice car. I don't get this one at all

There's too many alterations for it to be a joke, right?

07/13/02: SA Photojournal

there was a somethingawful project recently, in which I participated. The instructions were: take your camera around with you, and take 10 photos, once every hour. Also, a self portrait, a public bathroom, and your local video store. Here is my entry.

The basic story is, my girlfriend and I went to the local art fair. Then we ate at an italian restaurant (yummy!). Then we came back and watched a movie. I didn't cheat... much. Some pictures weren't quite on the hour. But whatever, it's the idea that counts, not the exact execution.

I am also royally pissed about the green dot evident in all photos I have taken since 6/20

1:45. We, uh, just got up.

[640x480] [800x600] [1024x768] [1600x1200]

2:45. Trash next to someone's car

[640x480] [800x600] [1024x768] [1600x1200]

3:45. Char in oddly the exact same pose, at the Madison Art Fair. I bought a photo.

4:45. Char considers the crowd.

[640x480] [800x600] [1024x768] [1600x1200]

5:45. Coolest tree ever.

[640x480] [800x600] [1024x768] [1600x1200]

6:45. We hung out, browsing the web for a bit. The previous night char and meaghan had came over for a very geeky Laptop Party. it was fun, in a really pathetic sort of way. Chatrooms containing people in the same room are surrealistic.

[640x480] [800x600] [1024x768] [1600x1200]

7:45. it was time to take a photo, and I was driving down the highway. I'm like, "well, just shoot the scenary, there's nothing else -- HOLY FUCK COOL CAR!" And Char took this.

[640x480] [800x600] [1024x768] [1600x1200]

8:45. I was going to photograph the food. The waitress said, "oh, shall I take your picture?" Char was motioning for my hand in some way, and I was being slow. A woman at the next table said, "oh come on, put your arm around her." Click.

9:45. Char. (again, but can you blame me?)

[640x480] [800x600] [1024x768] [1600x1200]

10:45. I hate bars.

07/04/02: fireworks

I just sorta whipped out the camera and pushed the button. it was, unfortunately, not on SHQ mode, but this is the best I got with luck.

06/29-30/02: camping.... PART TWO

We went camping again. This time we went to Bong State park. No joke. bong. It was cool, although our site was really close to a highway. It sort of shattered the illusion of even semi-wilderness, but what can you do.
