A blog from a science nut, computer geek, sometimes philosopher, and a human. Based out of Denver, with a love of Antarctica, I seem to wander the world so who knows where I'll be in 6 months.
Sort of funny that reading Laura Rip’s blog has me thinking about blogging myself. I think it’s just the distance between my life and hers and the perspective that gives, but none the less I couldn’t help but crack up at her describing a lunch as “eating a burger the size of my head” and … Read more
Taking the metro home after another house party in DC reading a blog entry on a blackberry-like device similar to what every politician here has and it struck me how domestic and settled I am here in DC. Laura Rip is in on the south pole running up and down halls for parties, watching auroras … Read more
A year later, I still occasionally get asked, “How Do I go to Antarctica?” as I’m sure many icer’s do all their lives. For me, although I haven’t grown entirely tired of it, I’m not ready to be a broken record yet so instead while I was in NZ this last month, I created an … Read more
So you want to go to Antarctica? I’ve finally created a document just for this question. I have the goal of covering a majority of the questions we hear about in a reference-able web document. I’m even thinking of a wiki for Antarctica at Harshplace.com, but don’t have time to implement it right now. Hopefully … Read more
I know this is probably too much for most of you as whether your in Colorado, California, or Washington DC your undoubtable flopping about like a seal in Antarctica whilst I speak of an Indian summer here in NZ. I don’t mean to prod, or well maybe I like it a bit, but with so … Read more
Even these days after having the experience of wandering asia, living in Antarctica, and finally coming to the point of satisfaction with my life, I still find myself caught in triva. “Ya bloody ass, you almost doored me…” is a refrain that leaps to mind given my now daily biking to work. In the moment … Read more
It only took me 3 months to finished the Asia timelapse montage, but I did get it done and technically it was finished before new year rang in (although the distribution wasn’t done till after the new year)! Without much further ado, I present the Wonderfullyrich Asia timelapse 2006 montage: Full screen mode is recommended … Read more
Has it been 3 months? I’ve been In Washington DC for three months? It’s hard to believe I’ve been in one place for so long. It’s Christmas eve in the US capital and “Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.” Although I think that’s out of fear for the house cat Luther. He … Read more
So I promised I’d be putting my asian pics up soon and they’re here! No time lapse stuff is in yet, but I’ve started to work on the montage so hopefully it’ll be ready before I hit denver again. I’m guessing that’ll be in about 2 weeks, but as usual nothing firm there. Enjoy the … Read more
