The Bruins Lost Game ? PANIC!

Oh no…

Not again.

The Bruins lost game four last night.  They now lead the Rangers three games to one.  Remember the last time this happened?  I do.  I’ll never forget.  2010, the nightmare that keeps on giving.

The Bruins played more than well enough to win last night, partly because for most of the game the Rangers played with the intensity of a minor league intra-squad scrimmage game.  The turning point was a bad goal off of Tuukka.  I haven’t seen a replay yet.  I listened on the radio last night so I was spared the horror.  Tuukka fell on his ass and the puck trickled into the goal in slow motion.  After that, the Rangers were better.

Game five is tomorrow evening.  It’s a 5:30pm start, I think.  Hopefully we’ll be back home from seeing Star Trek Into Darkness by then so I can torture the whole family by making them watch.

Muahahahaha!

Go Bruins.  Please don’t choke again.

Bruins Game Four Tonight

In 2011 I developed a hockey superstition. If I ate some smartfood popcorn on game day, the Bruins would win.

I’m not saying it was a real thing, but the Bruins did win the Cup that year.

Just sayin’.

iPhone Video

Video taken with an iPhone, and then uploaded directly from the phone to youtube kinda looks like utter crap, don’t you think? Word on the street is that the next iOS release is going to include integration with Flickr and Vimeo, similar to the way it integrates with Facebook and Twitter in iOS 6.

I might have to go sign me up for a Vimeo account just out of spite.

A Little More Flickr Love

I went to Flickriver.com and put in my user and then clicked random. It’s not very random, as the first 20 pics were from the same set, but I pulled out a few to add here for no reason other than to show Flickr some hosting love.

Emergency

Emergency, a photo by robj_1971 on Flickr.

This didn’t cause the bad traffic driving home tonight. Hopefully everyone is okay.

More Feeding the Flickr

The Flickr homepage has always had a space for groups that you belong to. It used to show the few most recent pictures added to one group, and I think it linked to one or two others. I don’t think I ever clicked on anything group related from the homepage.

Now there are two pictures displayed in the upper right hand corner of the homepage, one each from two random groups. I find myself looking at that every time I log on. I look at the latest contact upload or two, or three, and then I check out whatever groups came up.

It makes me want to view the groups, and it makes me want to add images. I just added this one to a group called Reflections in Water.

I wanted to add this one, which I like a while lot more, but it wasn’t really applicable.

Feed the Flickr

I have this crazy need to upload pictures to Flickr and post them everywhere. I’m just pleased by the whole thing. I have always enjoyed clicking around on Flickr, and now it will just look 100 times better every time I do. I just want to feed a bunch of new pics to the machine, you know?

Here’s some old pictures that are probably already on this page somewhere, but what the hell, you know? Pics of my town.

I don’t know… maybe this is just me thumbing my very large nose at all the people who are so afraid of change that they are bitching and moaning about their online photography site placing it’s focus on photos. Really… how dare they, right?
