  • The Big Picture – Truely amazing set of photos with each post. I just found this one recently and have loved it from the start. Its kind of a play on “This week in photos” from MSN.
  • PastelPoetry.com – Well, Ricky is an amazing writer and every time he writes, I’m always captured by his imagination with his expressions. I just wish he would write more.
  • DigitalMusings – Christopher Chan takes amazing photos and he shows off some of his work in this blog.
  • ModBlog – Well, what can I say?  I don’t have any body mods myself, but I still like to see what people are up to these days in that relm of the world. (not always SFW)
  • Belly Off: The Trainer – I’m going through a change in my life. Im eating better, working out more, and this feed helps me keep going.
  • Get Rich Slowly – Being financially fit is just as important to me as being physically fit.  With JD’s help, his blog keeps things in check and the goal in plain sight.
  • AutoBlog – I love cars, all cars… Need I say more?
  • LifeHacker – I dont know where they find all the stuff they post about, but I have found some great tools and tips from this site.  Yeah, a lot of it is reposts from other sites and blogs. But if you just weed through those you can find some real gems.
  • TechCrunch – The latest on stuff… tech stuff…. I guess.
  • Engadget – Same as TechCrunch, pretty much.

    • HM: CNN: Headlines – Gotta stay on top of whats going on, right?

    So there you have it. My top 10 RSS Feeds as of todays date…

I got 18.89 seconds. I guess thats good. Brilliant even.

With the move, someone accidentally deleted my voice message recordings. With that said, I had to redo mine and with this opportunity I went ahead and polished up my message. This is what it is now:

So I decided to make a little phone camera post…

    First, here is a plant that Ricky gave me. Its a Mother-In-Laws-Toung or something like that. Ricky made the little pot its in and all. How cool is that?…

    Second, me. Just a random shot of me at work:

    The end…

I’m staying in down town San Francisco. God is the weather nice up here. This really makes me want to stay up here forever. Ate at Tommy, some mexican restaurant… Very very good. And I guess they are known for their Tequila; they have 56 different kinds. Pretty impressive.

    The flight wasnt bad. I wish I had a window seat, but I didn’t. At least I had an isle seat and not one of those in between ones. On the way home, im getting a window seat damint! =)

I am heading to San Fran for the rest of the week. Am I looking forward to it? sure, but not in the way I would be looking forward to going there for vacation or something. Not to mention, I have a presentation to do Monday morning when I get back.. Woohoo.. Fuck that. it will be my fist presentation as well. Not looking forward to that at all. I think that may be hindering the way I feel about this trip to San Fran. I don’t know though.

    Thats all…

It shouldn’t be.

    I think it would be weird to come back here in like 5 years to see what was on it. Damn I love that car. That car, that color, a track, and a full tank. That is my heaven. Well, there are two things I would have different. One, I would have the Z06. Two, I would want black or gray interior.

They brought my Starbucks Monday, and then they did again today. So good. Thanks Irene and Michelle.

    ]]>     http://danielbrincat.com/2006/05/03/640/feed/ 0     Poniac GTO. Looks like hell, but the engine is something amazing http://danielbrincat.com/2006/04/29/637/ http://danielbrincat.com/2006/04/29/637/#comments Sat, 29 Apr 2006 07:43:00 +0000 Daniel http://danielbrincat.com/2006/04/29/637/ So today at work was chill. Nothing all that exciting happened. But I have to say, I really do enjoy working at this company. They are just so damn cool and easy to work with.

    The CEO might be getting a new car this weekend. She might be getting the 300C (the one with the hemi). Cool.

    I want a Corvette.

    But in the meantime I will gladly take the GTO. It looks, ehhhh, at best, but its not the looks you’re buying. Its the Engine. I’ll take it. But who wants to spend thirty grand on a car? Sure as hell not me. It doesn’t sound like that much money, but I just cant justify spending that kind of money on a item that depreciates as fast as cars do.

    Jennifer met Ricky today. I came out to here earlier this week. All is cool. We might go to Kilarnies (sp?) later. That would be bad ass to hang with Jen. Maybe we can get Nick involved too. How much fun would that be?
