Over the weekend I shot a Roller Derby bout in Springdale. It was kind of a freelance/favor thing. The graphic artist at our paper is a member, and she was looking for a photographer on the cheap. I never know what to price my services, so I bit at the first number she threw out at me. This is why I will never be a successful freelance photographer. "100 bucks? Sure. The loose change in your pocket? I think we can work with that. Some Magic Beans? Let's talk...."
Anyway, it was actually good times and she paid a decent price. I'd do it again.
And I'm sure no one cares but me, but today is my 100th post. Woohoo! Sure, most of my posts were trite and random, but I didn't actually think I'd keep my blog up for this long. Turns out I love my blog so very much. Seems like a great time for a little party music. The first is an bonus track from the import version of Timbaland's "Shock Value" CD. I don't know why he omitted it from the U.S. version, because its great. The second is a mashup between the Killers song "When You Were Young" and Muse's "Starlight." It just wouldn't be a party with out a killer mashup. Enjoy.
