Happy B-Day Bro

There sure are a lot of July babies I know. That being the case, I just wanted to wish my younger brother a happy birthday today. You’re 22 years old are are already losing your hair faster than me. Also please note: White people can’t get away with shaving their heads completely clean to cover it up. Deal with it. Happy b-day.

Comic Con Bound

Yes, it’s that time of the year again for the largest comic convention in the world, Comic Con International: San Diego! It has already started and will go through the weekend, but a group of friends and myself are only going to be there Sunday. It’s not just comics, though. You’re pretty much going to experience everything that the dork culture has to offer such as toys, fine arts, movies, and animation to name a few. Don’t be afraid when you see the Klingons or Stormtroopers walking around. They come in numbers. Should be fun. Happy Friday.

5MP/4X Digital Camera Roundup

If you’re in the market for that 5 mega pixel / 4x zoom digital camera, Digital Photography Review has posted reviews for the Canon PowerShot G5, Nikon Coolpix 5400, and Sony DSC-V1. The Sony seems to have come out on top because of its smaller size and price tag $100 less than the Canon or Nikon, but these cameras are so close that it’s really gonna come down to brand loyalty. You simply can’t go wrong with any of them.

One thing I did notice is Nikon has solved all of the chromatic aberrations and “white burn” problems people (including myself) have complained about in the past. This being the case, I would definitely go the Nikon route again and pick up the sturdier, feature rich, manual heaven Coolpix 5400.
