Huh, your gonna replace the door on your hotel room?

A few days ago, a friend of mine forwarded me an email featuring a mutual friend of ours. This email contained a video on a Swedish website which allows anyone to create a parody from a photo. My guess is that the video uses some green screen techniques to embed a photo within a stock [...]

Syrus gets a new Veterinarian

The day before Reading was hit with more than eighteen-inches of snow, Syrus was acting a little strange. He seemed to be favoring one of his hind legs, at the time I simply thought he must have slept on it improperly and it fell asleep.
