Copping out...

Well since I apparently don't have enough to put here, I'm going to start including content from other sources.  I hope that once I'm finished with this huge work project that I'll be making more money and will be able to get a project car that will provide a lot more content for this blog.

So for now I'll leave you with a video of street drifting in Yokohama taken by Brian of Panda Pirate Brian.

Another new look and a dying phone

I can't really decide how I want to style this blog so I'll just keep playing with the layouts and colors until I find something I like.  Right now I'm liking this layout, but not sure about the colors. 

Also decided to ditch the Amazon box for now as it wasn't pulling any relevant content at all.  I specified that the blog would be about cars and photography mainly.  A few days ago I started seeing totally unrelated things like diamond rings advertisements, yes, that fits in cars and photography.

I've had my iPhone 3GS for a year now and in the last two weeks the battery has started to last for shorter and shorter periods of time between charges.  I don't have any notifications running and in 3 hours of not being used at all it went from a full charge to half charge.  You're not supposed to be able to change the battery as a customer, but if you go to ifixit.com you can get a kit to do it.  However, everything you purchase in Sweden has like a 2 year warranty regardless of what the manufacturer does, so I think I may try to go back to where I got it and see if they'll replace it with an iPhone 4.  I'd really like to get the white one but Apple is dragging their feet with it stating that the white paint isn't thick enough for the backlighting.
