Video Time Wasters

Since my dad learned how to use email, all I got is forward after forward after forward. It's quite annoying. But, every now and then, he sends something good. This video of Stephen Wiltshire, "the living camera," is pretty amazing. He also sent me this video of a double knockout. Nuts!

Suzanne Yoculan Is A Great American


During AthFest, a friend hipped me to the source of the scary-looking painting (to the right there) that currently hangs in the Caledonia. It's none other than the Gymdogs' Head Coach Suzanne Yoculan. It's based on this photo. Once I knew who it was (and the title of the painting), I thought it was hilarious. I have absolutely no idea who painted it, but big ups to them.

You could say that pictures like that are a hazard of the job. Of course, it doesn't help that when you type her name into Google Images, the first two pics that come up are this one and this one. Then again, in the world of collegiate gymnastics coaching, she's pretty much tops, so I doubt she's losing any sleep over having her excited face photographed repeatedly.

Strayhorn Magazine

Totally got this e-mail late, but here's some cool new magazine news:
Howdy Dayjobbers,

Jeff Owens here. A few months back Todd Kelly, Pete McBrayer, and I started a magazine project called Strayhorn. We ... are currently wrapping up our first issue, filled with the weird, the forgotten, and the overlooked in art, film music, etc. We are hosting some film events ... on the weekend of Oct. 5,6, & 7, we are bringing Raiders of Lost Ark: The Adaptation to Cine. Its a shot for shot remake of Raiders (full feature length) shot on Betamax in the 80's by 12-year- olds in Biloxi Miss. It has real fire, stunts, 200 costumes, snakes, explosions, and a giant paper mache boulder! Its awesome, and the guy who made it are coming to talk and answer questions and meet Athens. The event is benefiting Teen Screen, a local organization supporting teen filmmakers.
So, that all sounds pretty cool and there's some good folks behind it. Check out their page for more info.
