so, dave brought this to my attention today. one of the videos i took of him flying one of his helis which he posted to youtube, has received 80 thousand views!

heres the video.

now how could this happen? well, it got linked on the main page of a website called xheli.com. they are using the video to help promote one of the helicopters!

anyways, i thought this was pretty cool.

i havent mentioned this before, but i read a lot of online webcomics these days.  and one of my favorites is a sci fi based one, called Starslip Crisis, which can be found at www.starslip.com  i highly recommend it for anyone looking for something new to read every morning on the internets.  Kris Straub is the genius behind the comic, and he recently redesigned his website using wordpress, which so happens to be the same blog back end i use.

so, go check it out!

Cool, i saw this great link today on boingboing that shows a offroad truck, that got converted into a camper!  it looks really nice!  boy, that would be fun.
