I’m a big fan of my Amazon Kindle. When browsing the Kindle store last night I discovered that my first book is now available on Kindle. If you’re looking for a podcasting book that is Kindle friendly might I suggest Podcast Solutions - Kindle Edition.
I’m intrigued by the new film JCVD. It was a hit at Cannes and has received surprisingly good reviews. It is opening in extremely limited release this week, but luckily it is coming to one of my local theaters. I hardly ever go to a theater anymore, but I’m going to make an exception for this one on Friday - who knows when it will be out on DVD.
Once you’ve written a book or two you can’t help but wander by the section where they should be when browsing in a book store. Sure if you’ve written a NY Times bestseller you know they have it, but when it comes to technology books you’re always curious. I grabbed this shot yesterday with my iPhone at a local Borders. Not a bad selection of podcasting books. It is always nice to see when they carry both of mine.
Looking to spice up your weekend? I did it by taking an eyeful of Oleoresin Capsicum (better known as pepper spray) as part of my Reserve Sheriff Training. Since anytime you use this stuff, there is a good chance some will blow back on you, it is important to know how it will effect you and exactly what it feels like. The really bad burning only lasts about 20 minutes, after 45 minutes or so most people are able to take care of themselves again, though the skin continues to burn to varying degrees for the next few hours. Luckily, I turn out to be one of the people who recovers pretty quickly - glad I got that gene! It only took me minute or two to be able to get my eyes open again. Though it still really burns, once you can get your eyes open it helps tremendously in starting the recovery process. Oh, and take it from me, it burns way more than you can ever imagine!
You can see in the shot above as my eye closes as a reaction to the first part of the stream as it hit my eye dead on. Garrett, my partner in the exercise, is next up to get an eyeful.
