iPhone(s) Piano

OuiCestBon has taken the time to perform for us a beautiful song on the piano. However, instead of a Baby Grand, he’s using iPhones.

You’ll notice at the beginning he’s struggling with keeping all of the phones lit-up. If you watch his left hand it makes many mistakes, goes to show you a few things about the important of haptic feedback…

“My Name is Inigo Montoya”

0 comments

I was just going about my daily life this morning, I see this tweet by one of my good friends. She is graduating this year and is involved in numerous extracurriculars, so she has been swamped for the past 8 months of her life. The tweet was:

lchen512. So nice out! Snuggling then hanging out.

Imagine my bewilderment when I read that she had free time. I decided to share this bewilderment and amazement with her and the rest of the Twitterverse.

I then continued on with my life. Carrying on conversations about flannels vs. plaids, reading about the fall-out from the T fires, and working on a presentation. All until this arrived…

This is why I love Twitter. Because Inigo Montoya can call me out! I don’t personally know him, so had I posted the previous comment on Facebook, he never would have been able to call me out on it. Welp, thanks for the reality check @iaminigomontoya and the enjoyable start to my Friday morning!

Between the Legs Play

0 comments

You’ve seen countless blooper and highlight reels from various baseball teams across the years. They’re the infamous between the legs, who’s got the ball? no one’s got the ball.?, and slip and falls. My favorite blooper of all time has to be the Jose Canseco home run assist off his head. Well, my dad showed me this amazing play made by Mark Buehrle of the Chicago White Sox. And boy, this one might rank as my #1 amazing plays, it is certainly top 5.

I’ve always loved simple solid rings. Aaron Ruff has created this ring which I think qualifies.
