Here’s a short video of our canoeing, hiking, and what the Widgeon Falls looks like!

Jason brought home a Canon PowerShot SD4000, which I’ve been dying to purchase ever since he showed it to me!  It’s basically the super version of my Canon PowerShot SD1000.  The major feature that everyone’s excited about is it’s ability to shoot at 240fps (frames per second)!  The following is a reel of us playing around with it over the last two days!

It should be noted in case anyone cares, that when shooting at 240fps it only comes out at 320×240.  The video here is basically blown up 2x.  It can also shoot at nice 1280×720 at 30fps (720p)… but you can’t do any other framerates aside from 240 and 30.  Oh well – buckets of fun already!

I’m not sure how many of you out there watch Big Bang Theory… but it’s an awesome show! And to top it off and make it even more awesome, I’m sharing a clip in which they bring up Lego Stop Motion! Now, I’m not saying they’re directly talking about the Lego Millenium Falcon Stop Motion that Greg and I made because there’s a tonne out there, but I’m taking this one as a personal win either way!

A few weeks back, I won a Tassimo Coffee maker! I picked it up from the store just a couple days ago, and have been brewing a whole bunch of delicious beverages for friends and I. Off the bat it doesn’t taste all that great, but add a couple spoonfuls of sugar and lots of people are really surprised and happy with how great it tastes! As somewhat of a coffee conosur, I find the taste fairly mellow compared to a drink made from a real coffee shop. It’s a nice little substitute, but they will never be as good as when they’re made by a human!

Here’s a little video I recorded of the machine in action!

The video also gives you a little tour of where I’ve placed it – as it’s now a part of my workplace! Sometimes a little too easy to just lean over and make a tasty drink!

My last note is that I cheated a little in the video, as to make a Cappuccino as I was doing, you first take a cartridge from the Espresso box (seen next to the machine) and run that through. After that, you put in the cartridge that is seen going in at the beginning of the video.

PS – New video player for my website too!
