What not to do on Vacation

I want to preface this with a few things. Firstly, I've been reading Tucker Max's book a lot. I read all of his stories when I was younger and took solace in the fact that If I choose to take my parent's money back then, I'd end up a douchebag like him. Spending every night shitting and puking on myself wasn't worth the conquest stories. Being imulsed in his writing, mine might resemble his in some way.

If that bothers you, fuck off.

Tribes 2 Returns: Time for Serious Nerdery

I am not what you would call a "gamer". I enjoy video games, and perhaps I am a gamer when in front of my computer or XBox. When I power down the device, I cease to be a "gamer" and become something else, like a writer, car-guy, or web developer.

Atlanta, Video Cocaine, and Half-Eaten Toast

I can't even begin to tell you how exhausted I am right now. I spent last week in Atlanta, GA filming Furniture Decorating's first big story, a furniture show called AmericasMart.

As I expected, I was able to meet some awesome people. Barry Dixon, Mike Howarth, Kathi Cunningham, and Steve Papevies are all gurus in their respective niches, and wonderful people to talk to. They remind me why I dabbled in interior design to begin with.

Best Christmas Lights EVAR
You can actually see the haze of these Christmas lights from blocks away.

Tina got a tip from a coworker about a stunning Christmas light display in Orlando near Winter Park. You can see the twin Christmas trees reaching into the sky from Tangerine street, so it's hard to miss even if you're not looking for it.

The stat sheet on the donations bucket says that the entire display takes nearly a month to set up, and electric costs exceed $800 monthly.

Who remembers the scene in "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" where he loosens one bulb and the entire city's Christmas lights go out?
