Have you seen … ?

Posted in Pop Culture, Video by Adam on July 2nd, 2008

I am always that person who has never seen … movie. Well I have just added two ‘classics’ to my list. Via iTune’s $.99 movie rental of the week I have watched both The Usual Suspects and The Untouchables. I have to say that I enjoyed both immensely, especially for $.99 each.

Next up is Robocop…

The home stretch

Posted in Abroad, Announcements by Adam on July 1st, 2008

I have made it to July and into the home stretch! I have 8 more days of work and 11 total days left in Hamburg before retuning home.

The countdown is not because I didn’t enjoy my time here in Hamburg, it really has been a great 6 months, but I am super duper excited to be back home in NY/NJ with family and friends in less than two weeks (yes I said super duper).

See you soon!

Move on, but never forget

I commend ESPN for running this video 60 years after WWII/the Holocaust, just hours before the Eurocup finals in Viena, Austria (Spain vs. Germany). While we need to move on from what happened in Germany and Europe, we should not forget.

New music

Posted in Music by Adam on June 29th, 2008

Coldplay Viva La VidaWhen I was home last week I had bought a bunch of new CDs…yes I still buy CDs — I greatly prefer buying a CD and then ripping it to my PC, rather than just downloading and accidentally losing the files at some point in the future when I move computers/hard drives.

Here’s what I’m listening to now:

  • Coldplay - Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends
  • DMB - Warehouse 8, Volume 4
  • Counting Crows - Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings
  • Bruce Springsteen - Magic
  • Blue Merle - Burning In The Sun
  • Jason Marz - We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things
  • Gavin Degraw - Gavin Degraw
