Sunday we went to Pescadero for lunch. I did not take too much video, but I got some cool pictures. We ate at Duarte's. It is a historic tavern that started in 1894.

Video Blog #27: Why I got my Veggie Car

Tejas Patel wrote a post about my veggie car. He wanted to know what made me decide to convert the car to run on waste vegetable oil.

I have answered him by trying to imitate ZeFrank

I don't know if you have seen "The Show" by ZeFrank, but it is very funny. That guy has dedication and talent.

Here is my attempt to imitate ZeFrank.

Video Blog #26: San Jose Grand Prix

Here is some footage from Friday's action at the 2006 San Jose Grand Prix. I wandered on down to the course on my break and saw Lee there (that is him in the video).

I was not trying to get in for free, but next thing you know, I actually wandered onto the paying part of the course. That was cool, because I got some pretty good footage. If any of you read this post before you go to the race, you can get onto the course for free just south of the corner of San Fernando and Almaden. There is a parking garage there that you can cut through.

Video Blog #25: Another Trip to Big Sur

Ok, we are addicted to Big Sur. You just never get sick of that place. Also, it was super hot on Sunday and Big Sur is nice and cool. We went to the River Inn for lunch and saw Kenny Stahl play. Then we went down to Limekiln State Park and soaked our feet in the ocean.

Video Blog #21: Replaceing my veggie car filter

Here is a video that shows me replacing the filter element on my veggie car. This is pretty much the only kind of maintenance that you have to do on a veggie car. My veggie car is still running great on free WVO (Waste Vegetable Oil)!

Video Blog #19: Assembly of Baby's Drawer

Here is a video of me assembling the baby's new dresser. Yes, we are having a baby. He is due in August.

The music is from Chaos Lounge. (and here, and here). Chaos Lounge is Anji's (My Wife) old band (that's her in the middle in the first two picts at the links). You will meet Anji next episode.

The song is called "No Sleep", and that is what happens (I hear) when babies come around. Of course the song was written many, many years before I met Anji, but it seems kind of fitting somehow.

Video Blog #18: Fireworks at Seabright Part II

Here is the rest of the footage I got from my adventure to Seabright Beach on July 4th.

This footage has what looks like the "grand finale", but the fireworks went on for more than an hour after we left, so technically it wasn't.

Remember kids: Fireworks are illegal in Santa Cruz!

Video Blog #17: Fireworks at Seabright

Remember kids, it is illegal to light off fireworks in Santa Cruz!

However, this video shows the power of the people. If everyone agrees to ignore the law, then we make our own rules and the authorities can't do anything about it! Too bad this mentality doesn't' spread to other things we need to change...

Power to the people!
