After a short break during the holiday season my weekly posts on Waking Ideas resume with an interview of my friend Dan Rubin regarding his recent foray into shooting with Polaroid film.

Meeting Gene

In the summer of 2003 the company I was working for at the time hired KISS for an event in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Â I learned a lot during that entire process and I’ve finally found the time to write about one specific thing I learned by meeting Gene Simmons.

Have I mentioned that I love writing my weekly articles for Waking Ideas?

LOST in time

I’m loving that I’m able to write for Waking Ideas on a weekly basis. This week I cover my recent journey through the entire LOST series, again! 83 hours of television-watching goodness.

Here is an excerpt:

“I mean what else could I have done with roughly 83 hours of free time? Stretched out this is over two weeks of full-time labor, double the amount of time it takes to learn to be a pilot, or the record time a person has circumvented the entire planet Earth solo. Ok, but do those things have anything to do with a mysterious island, a plane crash, love triangles (and sometimes even love squares), black smoke monsters, invisible cabin dwellers, polar bears in tropical climates, self-projecting children, time traveling consciousnesses, orÂ JOHN LOCKE? I think not.”

Jupiter, Venus, and Earth’s Moon are BFFs

I was able to write a guest post on Waking Ideas, a site run by two of my friends Daniel Nicolas and Jake Dahn. I thought it’d be fun to write about the recent event in our Solar System where Jupiter, Venus, and our Earth’s Moon had a little party.
