Wow…1982. I’m dating myself. But it is a cool video.

Missing Persons – yeah baby.

***Update 5.21 – this sucks – they won’t let me embed the video into my blog so you’ll get a message in youtube video to see it on youtube – but it does provide a link. ***

Angels in the Outfield

by betoman on Apr.28, 2010, under Family, Misc., Sports

Last night was my son’s last baseball game and we were excited to see him play. I had an unpleasant dentist appointment but had picked up my Mom and her sister (my Aunt from Michigan) to come watch. As the proud Papa, I set up our chairs up in the concrete stands by home plate to watch my son play with his team.

It was a surprisingly cool night but the game was exciting. At the bottom of the 2nd inning Joaquin was on 2nd base with the bases loaded and two outs. We cheered him on from the top of the concrete stands and I could hear other parents encouraging the Team. There was so much activity during the game, school children running around the stands, people laughing, a player jumping the fence to retrieve a foul ball across the street – I even hear my Mom yell, “C’mon Wack! Go Wack!” Wack is Joaquin’s school nickname.

As I watched the opposing pitcher prepare his wind up, I heard the screech of rubber on asphalt followed by a loud thump. At the first sound, I immediately looked over to the street behind the backstop and saw the brake lights of a big gray truck screeching to a halt. As the truck’s inertia moved it forward, a white “V” was revealed as it traveled across the street in an unnatural slide next to the truck. In a span of a millisecond, my brain identified the white “V” as the white pants of our baseball uniform, then the red knee high socks attached to black baseball cleats. As he continued across the road, I noticed his light brown hair masking his young face. All sound ceased as he rolled to a stop, sitting up right in the street in his blue baseball jersey. It was one of our younger players who had gone to go retreive that foul ball.

The Crazies…

by betoman on Feb.07, 2010, under Misc.

Some people are saying this is a faithful reboot of George Romero’s original movie.

The trailer is pretty darn good. Watch the trailer below till the end when this haunting song is played. It’s “Mad World” by Michael Andrews and Gary Jules from another movie, Donne Darko and boy, does it drive the point across for me.

Comes out Feb 26, 2010.

Oh…don’t watch this at night. You won’t sleep.

A cool song made from FX sounds from T2

by betoman on Feb.07, 2010, under Misc.

This is just too wild. Someone made a song entirly out of the sound effects from one of my favorite movies – Terminator 2.

Not only did they create the song – but they made a video of it showing where the clips came from!

I can’t even to begin to imagine how long it took to do this…
