If this doesn’t cheer you up nothing will.

Cameron’s first time on the swing!

I love going to the movies. Before the kids got here and you had to take out a mortgage to cover the costs of ticket prices, going to the movies was one of my favorite things to do. In my opinion, the best time to see a movie is the theaters first showing of the day. Why the first showing? Because that’s the least crowded time.

I don’t like to go when it’s least crowded because it’s easier to find a seat, I like to go then because that’s when it’s the most quiet. I love when it’s quiet because I love to be able to sit far enough back to be able to hear the clicking of the projector. I always have loved that sound for some reason. Unfortunately with more and more theaters going to digital servers and projectors, finding a theater that you can still hear the click of the projector is a rare thing.

It might seem strange to you, but as much as I love technology, the only time I ever wish for things to slow down are with randomly small things like this that some people might go a lifetime and never notice.

Great concept by the french firm Digital District for Amnesty International on their campaign to end the death penalty around the world. This really made me think… mostly about why no one has ever tried Death by Melting as a penalty?

Ps. Did you know that we (the USA) just this week executed a man by firing squad? I didn’t know we still did that. Supposedly the last one. Crazy.
