I posted a couple of pictures a while back about rugby being my new favorite sport. I may have to expand my horizons a bit. The Dieux du Stade 2011 calendar sports more than just rugby players. Here’s one of a series of ‘behind the scenes’ videos recorded during shooting sessions for the new calendar.
I’m thinking a second career in photography might be in order, someday!
Some of the folks who brought us Toy Story, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, WALL-E, Cars, Monsters, Inc., and so much more have made a “It Gets Better” video. It’s well worth 8 minutes of your time, and I recommend watching it.

Random thoughts, occasional rants, illuminating commentary, and an odd story now and then from the world of 9-1-1 dispatching.
