Taking the Weather With Me
As promised, the Brisbane video is ready. And all in 45 minutes, too—which is my shamefacedly halfbaked excuse for its quality, in the hopes of beating away half of the dissenters who will post nasty comments.
Am most pleased with the music chosen, though, because Crowded House is part Aussie, part New Zealand (it’s all down’under anyway, isn’t it?) and a line in the chorus goes, “Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you.” Having not experienced many countries quite as hot and humid outside Southeast Asia, I have to say, Brisbane felt strangely like home, right from the moment the wall of humid, choking air hits your face as you step out of the airport.
The Movie World portion is pretty bad quality compared to the rest of the video, because it was shot with my phone when I left my camera’s battery at the hotel. It’ll be jerky, so maybe the nausea induced will bring back memories of old phone video clips I’ve posted before, where you were waiting for something interesting to happen, and all you got was a fade-out to black.
It’s not really a good idea for me to watch videos while at work, so I can’t really comment on it yet.
But I do have good news Vicki, I can now access this blog from home. Guess the local proxies finally came around to updating your domain and linkage. yay!
hey, the clip looks fine.you’re right, it’s so hot out there in brisbane it feels like home too.
fal> that’s honestly the best news i’ve heard all week. haha. :) whoopee…
lawrence> it’s actually cooler back home now. :D
Vicki> really? man you must have had one lousy week! ;)
Cool! I love the “blair witch” style of shooting while walking, must be hard to do! Agree that Brisbane was hot! Much prefer cooler places really.
When is it bad weather why do people get insane???
I have noticed , that anytime it rains, or there is a freeze, the public panics, rushes out to the stores and buy up all the
bottled water, batteries, flash lights, firelogs, and canned food. Why is this. You would think people that have been through
this kinda weather before would understand that it will not last more than a day or two at the most.
Another thing I have noticed is when it rains that all the dumb people again get on the roads and cause wrecks and everything
else.
What is wrong with the people? I would really like to know.
