I’ve been taking pictures again and hope to post some new stuff to my Flickr site. It feels great to get out again and I’ve got quite a few ideas lined up for shots. Unfortunately, I don’t have many people who are willing to model for me.
Yesterday, Scott and I went to see Will Smith put his hands in the cement at the Mann Chinese Theater. Surprisingly, Tom Cruz showed up for the event. Will Smith was pretty excited about the whole thing and spent a lot of time with his fans (who are all insane). Here are a couple of pictures I took.
As a side note, the most underreported story of the month was Chevron settling for its role in the Oil-for-Food scandal. The company paid 30 million in fines. Funny that there was no outrage or calls for a boycott. Actually, tell someone about the story in a year and they’ll think you’re a conspiracy nut even though the source comes from the SEC.
If I told you that Philip Morris paid scientist to do research for them you probably wouldn’t trust the research findings. In fact, big tobacco use to claim that smoking was healthy! So what if a company paid a newspaper millions in the form of advertising? Can you trust that newspaper to do objective reporting?
What if a company paid millions to lobby in Washington? Or what if a company paid both political parties hefty donations over the years? Or what if somebody from the Executive Branch use to be on the board of directors of Chevron?
Do you see a problem with this? This is only one company!
