MY IPHONE SHOT OF THE WEEK - “SIDEWALKS GOT NO CHANCE AGAINST THEM URBAN PLANTS” I liked this one best because it demonstrates how several species of urban plants were able to put aside their political and socioeconomic differences to come together and completely annihilate an entire segment of concrete sidewalk. F YEAH URBAN PLANTS!!! iphoneosaurus rex

MY IPHONE SHOT OF THE WEEK - “WAY TO BE A ONE-UPPER, WINDSHIELD” Several months ago the broken bottle of Heineken (seen above) appointed himself the self-proclaimed “King of the Broken Stuff” between Dobbin and Banker streets. However, a few days ago this a-hole windshield decided to park himself right next to the “King”. The following conversation ensued… Heineken: “Dude! Seriously? WTF!!!” Windshield: “Huh?” Heineken: “I’m the King of the Broken Stuff round these parts! Way to be a one-upper a-hole!!!” Windshield: “How are we talking? We’re inanimate objects.” Heineken: “Ladies and Gentlemen! I present to you… Captain Buzzkill!!! If you have a nice moment that you’d like to see destroyed just call Captain Buzzkill!!! Only Captain Buzzkill has the power to suck the life out of all the nice moments in your life!!!” Windshield: “So this is how it’s gonna be?” Heineken: “Put some pants on pervert.” ……………………………………………………….. If you’d like to see more of my daily iPhone photos click here. Most of em are pretty boring but whatever, it’s cool.

MY IPHONE SHOT OF THE WEEK - “THE ROCK SLUG” For some reason I rather liked this shot of a pile of random rocks just sort of hanging out in a suburban cul-de-sac. Here’s why… 1. With their powers combined all of the stones have conspired together to form “The Rock Slug”, and as such, they are slowly on their way to absorb and destroy all mini-vans and the soccer moms who drive them. 2. I think maybe there’s a big dead body (or two small bodies) buried under those rocks. 3. It reminds me of the suburbs where I grew up. My sister buried many a dead gerbil in our back yard, and atop each gerbil grave a big ol’ rock would serve as the tomb stone. Off the top of my head I remember burying Cookie, Cherry, Cupcake, Candy, and Cinnamon (Perhaps my sister’s naming scheme was bad luck?). Anyway, if you’d like to see more boring photos like the one above, feel free to check out my iPhone blog, it’s called iPhoneosaurus Rex and it goes ROOOARRRR!!!! Note to self: Ask my parents why they kept buying my sister gerbils when they knew that they would surely die at her hand.

This manatee is.. a. stealing the mailbox so that he can pawn it for some kelp. b. trying to eat the mailbox because he ate all his kelp and is still hungry. c. praying that the mailman delivers some envelopes filled with kelp. d. thinking to himself “Dude, how much kelp did I smoke? Is this a mailbox? Should I eat it? I think I’ll eat it.” I’m gonna go with “D”. Just look at his eyes, my man(atee) is baked like a cupcake.

SPACE FURBALLS MAKES ME SAD Because I’ll be staring at them all damn weekend as I try to manipulate their space-age furball bodies in Adobe After Effects. But before I can even get started on that inevitable motion graphics disaster, I’m first gonna have to cut these furballs out from their backgrounds in Photoshop, which unfortunately will be quite a bit harder than originally anticipated. Way to shoot grey fuzzy hats in front of big grey wall Tanner! Of all the colors in the world so shoot a grey fuzzy hat in front of, you picked the absolute worst one for what you are trying to do! Congratulations, here’s a free iPhone so you can call your mom and tell her just how much of a disappointment you really are!!! Finally, in case you are curious as to what the graffiti behind me says, here ya go… “MY FREEZER IS MY HUSBAND AND MY HUSBAND IS MY FREEZER” Apparently a woman near where I live married a freezer. She’s gonna have way more fun this weekend with her freezer husband than I’m gonna have with After Effects, that’s for sure.
