Future Is The Future
Once upon a time, I did a mini photoshoot with my buddy Natalia. Now she is starting a clothing store and wanted pictures in a similar style. I CAN DO THAT! And I did… here, look at pictures. Visit Future Is The Future.

Wonderwall
Between 1968 and 1975, George Harrison released six albums on the Beatles’ record label, Apple. The first record Harrison released was called Wonderwall Music, it was the soundtrack to a film directed by Joe Massot called Wonderwall. Maybe I should watch this film then. Wonderwall tells the story of obsession. A scientist is obsessed with his work. His life revolves around it and he doesn’t notice anything around him. Not his coworkers, not his apartment. He lives amongst the stacks of papers that line the walls of his apartment. Suddenly, in a rage, Professor Collins knocks a frame off his wall, exposing a hole. Through this hole he spies in… Read More »Wonderwall
Doctor Who Serial 060 – Day of the Daleks
Synopsis: Jon Pertwee’s Doctor faces his first Dalek invasion. There’s a man who is organizing a peace conference. An assassination attempt is made. The failed assassin vanished. The Doctor is called. The Doctor feels, the smartest course of action would be to stay at the haunted house and drink some wine. I knew there was a reason I liked Doctor Who. Jo and The Doctor relax and suddenly are faced with a break in by a guerrilla army. They discover that this militia is a group of rebels who are revolting against a Dalek invasion in the 22nd century. The Daleks are using a lower species (who look like Klingons) to… Read More »Doctor Who Serial 060 – Day of the Daleks
Doctor Who Serial 059 – The Daemons
Synopsis: I don’t really know what this is about. The Master decides that the way to take over the universe is to become a vicar. In this story, The Doctor keeps on bemoaning how impossible it is to make Jo Grant a scientist. I have no idea why he’s trying. Someone smarter than The Doctor calls her an idiot. I fully approve. The Doctor is trying to explain that any science significantly advanced seems like magic. People don’t seem to understand this stuff, and it’s baffling. A car moving on its own isn’t a crazy magic. Are the ’70s so far in the past that we are so disconnected from… Read More »Doctor Who Serial 059 – The Daemons
DOCTOR WHO SERIAL 058 – Colony In Space
Synopsis: In the 25th century, an Earth colony is facing dire times. Their food won’t grow, they’re being attacked by lizards, and worries of Earth miners plague their thoughts. Oh hi! It’s been a while. Sorry. Apparently I misunderstood some of the events of “Claws of Axos” and The Doctor cannot leave Earth. The Time Lords, however, feel they need to use The Doctor as their pawn, so they allow him to visit an Earth colony facing crisis. After watching the first episode the bit that stands out most is the line, “There was no animal life, just birds and insects.” Aren’t birds and insects animal life? Then later the same person… Read More »DOCTOR WHO SERIAL 058 – Colony In Space

It suddenly came to me that I could probably automate a process I do every time I purchase something for work. Every time I create a purchase order, I then go to Print and choose “Save as PDF” and then browse to “~/Documents/Purchase Orders/<<Current Fiscal Year Expressed as Hebrew Year>>/<<PO#>> – <<Supplier>>.pdf” I did a quick second of Googling and found this. So I took that and modified it slightly… Set Variable [$year; Value:If(Month ( Purchase Orders::Date ) > 6; Year ( Purchase Orders::Date ) + 3761; Year ( Purchase Orders::Date ) + 3760)] Set Variable [$path; Value:”filemac:/Macintosh HD/Users/<<username>>/Documents/Purchase Orders/” & $year & “/” & Purchase Orders::PO# & ” –… Read More »Save PDFs with one Click in FileMaker
Work Portraits
I was asked to photograph my coworkers for a magazine we publish, I thought I’d share…
Recollection Volume 38 – Sun Wizard
Recollection is a project to review my record collection. I will listen to an album I own and review it. The album will be chosen randomly by computron. Today computron chooses… Album: Sun Wizard Artist: Sun Wizard Released: 2010 Format(s) I own it on: CD In 2010, I went to Vancouver and had a great time. While I was there I went into a record store, talked to a clerk and asked him to suggest some awesome local Vancouver bands I might not have heard of. He set me up with a CD player and gave me a listen to a few records. Amongst them was this one. If I recall correctly, he was… Read More »Recollection Volume 38 – Sun Wizard
Recollection Volume 37 – From A Lover To A Friend
Recollection is a project to review my record collection. I will listen to an album I own and review it. The album will be chosen randomly by computron. Today computron chooses… Album: From A Lover To A Friend Artist: Paul McCartney Released: 2001 Format(s) I own it on: CD I believe I bought this CD single when I bought my copy of Driving Rain. I assume I never heard the single before purchasing it as I never recall liking this terrible, terrible song. Fortunately, I own a CD with not one, but three versions of this song. So let’s listen again… I think a lot of what makes me hate this song so much is… Read More »Recollection Volume 37 – From A Lover To A Friend
Recollection Volume 36 – Love At The Bottom Of The Sea
Recollection is a project to review my record collection. I will listen to an album I own and review it. The album will be chosen randomly by computron. Today computron chooses… Album: Love At The Bottom Of The Sea Artist: The Magnetic Fields Released: 2012 Format(s) I own it on: Vinyl Someone once described modern Magnetic Fields as a parody of Stephin Merritt’s songwriting style. This might be accurate. However, this doesn’t sum up the records completely. Love At The Bottom Of The Sea has some really good songs on it, and though it might be a bit over the top compared to 69 Love Songs, they’re worth the price of admission. Much like most of… Read More »Recollection Volume 36 – Love At The Bottom Of The Sea
