New to this "blogger" thing..

I deleted my Xanga on Friday. I don't know why, but I was looking through my "subscriptions" and realized that I haven't touched my Xanga account in ages. So, I looked through my recent posts and they're at least a year old. I wanted to start fresh but apparently, there isn't a way to delete all the posts at once but instead, you'd have to do it manually. Being the lazy guy that I am, I told myself to screw it, and deleted the entire account.

You have to go through a 3 question survey or test..whatever they call it, then it can be successfully deleted/canceled. Oh well.

Anyway, my friend Kristy told me about blogger.com so I thought I'd give it a shot and try it out. Sort of a "fresh start". I just noticed this very second that it auto-saves the blog. Not bad...Not bad at all.

So, I'm really excited about this Friday. I'm going to Big Willow race track for a track day, hosted by trackdaz.com . I think a liter bike would be at advantage, being that it's a long course and the liter bike would have it's advantage during the straight. I don't think it would come into play THAT much, but I'm sure the liter bikes would have just a tad more fun going fast than a gear'd 600.

Needless to say, I wanted to hit up the canyons before the track day to get my weekend fix. I was physically exhausted from the night before since we went to Knott's Berry Farm, so I just kind of went with the flow on Sunday. I had a lot of fun. Didn't want to push it hard and have something happen before the track.

There was a photographer there too.. Took pretty good pics if you ask me..





They're un-edited. I just made the border and messed with some colors/contrast just a tad.

I was also messing with my new fisheye lens. I've come to believe that the fisheye lens should be strictly used for fun shots. I don't see how you can use fisheye as "professional photography" at all. But it's a fun lens to mess around with. Here's a sample of Gina's brother's GF's car. Not the greatest because no tripod and dark lighting, but to me, it still came out acceptable.





If you're asking youself why the background looks so familiar, it's because it's the OG McDs is Downey.

Here's also one from this Mexican restaurant we ate at for Gina's parents' 30 year anniversary. Joey and Angie, Charlie and Jennifer. Joey and Charlie are Gina's brothers.. In case you didn't know.





Well, this concludes my first official post blog on blogger.com.

UPDATE: I don't know how to post pictures using HTML so that it wouldn't cut off when the blog is published so if anyone knows, let me know. Thanks...
