RIP The "Double Rainbow Guy," a.k.a. Paul "Bear" Vasquez
This always makes me think of Jason Keough!

Paul L. Vasquez became an internet sensation in 2010 after posting a video raving about a double rainbow in front of his home

So here's the deal. A lot of people liked the shirt, even though it seems a little weird for me to see my face. If you know someone who wants one, I asked my friend who made them how many I'd have to order to get more at $10 each. He said 10- 20 shirts. So if you know someone that wants one, get me the $10 fast, and if we don't get enough orders, I'll refund the money. I'm not sure if anyone cares, now that the Great America trip is over, so I'm just trying to be informative.

Both sides of the issue.

So here's what I think. I have a rule about not being facebook 'friends' with students, mainly to separate my personal life out. But I do like to keep in touch. I'm trying the Google + social network thing, and I'd be happy to put you in my circle. I'm really not sure how it works yet, maybe you can teach me. I hope you've had a great summer. The email I am using for this is [email protected]

The Google+ project aims to make sharing on the web more like sharing in real life. Check out Circles, Sparks, and Hangouts, just a few of the things we've been working on.

I just happened upon this trick when testing what it was like filming from inside my guitar. *Note this effect is due to the rolling shutter, which is non-re...

Follow the Units Joke:

Newton, Pascal, and Einstein are playing hide-and-go-seek in heaven.
Einstein closes his eyes and starts counting.
Pascal goes and hides behind a cloud.
Newton stays where he is, and draws a 1mx1m square on the floor around him.
Einstein finishes counting and turns around.
"Ah ha, Newton! I found you!"
"No you haven't, you've found one Newton over 1m^2 . . . You found Pascal."
