Posted by Thomas Chapin on Thursday, January 15th, 2009

My co-worker, Kent Downer, was showing me some of his facebook photos and one of them jumped out at me. The second I saw it, I just knew I had to photoshop it for fun. Here’s the before and after result:

Hot Air Balloon Ride

Posted by Thomas Chapin on Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

This past Saturday, I went on a hot air balloon ride! We went over a mile high, and it was awesome!
My business partner, Chris Tingom, came along (he rode in the other balloon) and he took a video of the experience, and a few photos. I took a video as well, but he beat me [...]

Arkansas and Ebay

Posted by Thomas Chapin on Tuesday, July 12th, 2005

Well, quite a bit has happened since I last posted about the fourth of July.

For starters, as of the 10th, I have officially known my girlfriend for a year. Crazy huh?

Oh yeah, and this past weekend I went and visited my family in Arkansas, which was cool. My little brother Samuel has really grown up! I can’t believe how much bigger and stronger he’s gotten. Man, it really used to stink, growing up with 5 sisters and not having a brother to play with. Samuel was always too little to do anything with so I always just kind of did my own thing. But now he’s all grown up and he’s almost as big as I am! We wrestled and he beat me. I couldn’t believe it. Too bad they don’t live closer to me anymore. I think he and I would have a grand ol’ time.

Well, at any rate. ‘Nuff of my rambling.

This evening, Shane and Jared want to go flying again. I’m going to get Zach or Corban to go along and we’re going to fly around Dallas and see what it looks like from the sky at night. I’ll let you all know how it goes.

On a side note, I am liquidating some of my assets on ebay (although I know none of you really care):
1. Tippmann 98 Custom Paintball Gun
2. Tokico High Performance Front Shocks for an 81-85 RX-7

And here are some recent purchases of mine (I’ve been saving up for these for a long time):
1. Denon AVR-2105 Home theater receiver with Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES, and Pro Logic IIx
2. JBL SCS160SI 7 piece Home Theater Surround Sound Speaker System
3. Coleman 9279F127 12 x 7 Montana 5-Person Tent

    Hey, Samantha posted for the first time! =)

    Yea… It is incredible how Sam has grown up. I’ve been around him while it’s happened, and it still amazes me.

    Did you get pictures of you flying again.

    Whatever you do. Don’t kill yourself.

    That sound system looks awesome.

    Are you planning on camping sometime soon?

    Yeah I’m pretty impressed that she posted something. haha.

    Yeah I got a couple of pictures and a little video clip of some of the downtown dallas buildings from the air.
    I don’t plan on killing myself. My odds of getting in a car crash are greater than a plane crash anyways.

    As to the camping… well, now that I’ll have a tent I’ll actually have the option of going camping. Where as before I just simply couldn’t. If I had ever gotten the urge I would have had to go to wal-mart and buy a good tent for like $150. Instead, I waited for about two years until a good deal came along and I ended up getting a 5 man tent for a mere $30 (and that includes shipping and handling too). So there ya go.
