Viva la Vida (You Missed This Acton)

If you didn't go to Thrive, this is what you missed one day. Visit here to see the video. Both YouTube and Blogger couldn't sync up the audio correctly so just stream it.

Star Wars (Sweded)

I know I already put a funny sweded video up earlier... BUT! This one is also funny.

So Hot You Can Smell It


Okay, I'm back! Thrive summer camp was great; the people were fun, Jesse was wild, and the water was cold. Anyways, my dad made this salsa today and he made it extra spicy... Wow. When he handed me the bowl, I took a whiff and my eyes started to water. Now, before you start just glancing over this blog like another sarcastic quirk, I... Am... Serious. You could literally smell the heat. I didn't even know that that was even possible.

Jurassic Park (Sweded)

If you don't know what "sweding" is then you need to watch "Be Kind, Rewind" with Jack Black. Anyways, this is basically a homemade version of Jurassic Park. Very funny. (YouTube video to you RSS'ers)

I am Invisible to Squirrels I Guess




So today when I was burying a pipe in the ground (don't ask), I felt two sharp claws run across my upper neck/lower head. I had three thoughts, 1. Why did Kai (our dog) run over my head?
2. That was really lightweight for a big chocolate lab.
3. Man Kai has a really furry tail!
I jerked up and saw a SQUIRREL scampering away! Thoroughly confused, I rubbed my neck and wondered why in the world that a squirrel would run across my head. Maybe he was fleeing the fray of an epic battle.

Or maybe he just saw a tasty acorn (is that what they eat?) off in the distance.

We will never truly know...

Angry Comments = Internet Riots

Do to Heidi and Jake's recent comment riots, I, Solomon Ray, swear to never post another blog about feet, of any kind, again.

All Better! You People Happy?

Spy Life Phase 1

Phase 2 will be around shortly... But! Please enjoy this teaser until then. (For you RSS'ers, there is a YouTube video)

Don't Work in Flip Flops

New Poll

For all you RSS'ers there is a new poll. When you really think about it, afternoon, should really be "after-noon". But I think Midday would describe this peak of sunshine better. Are these the rantings of a deranged teen? Or are they the ravings of a schooled scholar?

Preparation of a Blog

Today I am going to be walking you through creating a blog post as many people have sent in letters (not emails) saying, "Wow!!!! You are such a great blogger seriouslysolo!!!! How do you do it?????" and "Seriouslysolo could you give me advice on blogging? That would be good." So I am.
1. DO NOT DO BLOGS THAT COULD PASS FOR BOOKS! A long blog is sometimes good, but nobody wants to read a novel. I know from experience. Keep it short and sweet with a picture, or medium sized to kinda big with some or none pictures.
2. MOBILE BLOGGING SAVES LIVES! If you only update from your computer, you can do great blogs, but you won't be able to pump them out as fast as a mobile blogger would. This puts me at a disadvantage right now seeing as I have a phone that doesn't email or MMS.
3. GO VIDEO CRAZY! You know what they say, a video is worth a thousand pictures, and a picture is worth a thousand words. That's like... a million words per video! Just look at Trammelocity and eric's "video a day".
4. GET A FLICKR SLIDESHOW! Or picasa or iPhoto or whatever crap you want to throw up there. A mini photo-feed is the life-blood of blogs. Although I do know some great ones without them.
If you follow all that advice, you should be blogging great solo-style blogs in no time.

PC Vs Mac Round 1

Okay, I have Google Analytics. I know that a very large base of my viewers are using windows. All I have to say is, "Take this!"

Have You Ever Felt Like you Need to Save The World But Don't Know How?

Because I haven't. But anyway on to the blog. Simply put, I love Corn Pops. To me, it is just the perfect of crunchy and sweet. However, it sometimes gets a bad reputation because it doesn't taste like corn when that is its name. But think about it, if it tasted like corn, would you eat it?

New Temporary Phone


::please note that the following blog is sarcastic::
Okay so I got this sweet new phone while I wait for the 3G iPhone. It is so reliable! Who needs multitouch when I have a quadirectional pad! And nothing beats the feel of actual numbers on your fingertips! Not to mention the sweet pink color! Wow! I love this phone! ::end sarcasm:: Oops no wait, I lied. I hate it.

My iPhone finally sold on eBay. That means if a new iPhone doesn't

Burning 2.0

I too share my fathers passion

What Have I Become?


Okay, let me paint this picture for you:
I am in Lakeside away from all civilization
I have no Wi-Fi
I have no cell phone service
Going to the library is the highlight of my day because they have slower than edge Wi-Fi
My computer startup noise was blazing loud in the library.

... I need to get out of here.

Um...

Only at Big Johns hot tubs and chainsaws! Me and my dad are here
getting our new chainsaw fixed up. Very interesting characters in here.

Sorry Levi

Well It's Been Fun Old Friend

I am doing it. I am selling my iPhone. Wait! Before you start throwing lemons at your computer screen, I am only selling it to afford a new 3G one. So yeah. Don't be surprised if I don't answer a text or call for the next few weeks. But after this segment is over, YOU will be the ones with outdated phones! Tee-hee!
