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 [...]

Litmus Test for Door to Door Sales

Posted by Thomas Chapin on Monday, October 22nd, 2007

If I ever get down on my luck, I’m totally going to start a business selling “No Soliciting” signs from door to door.

Settled In

Posted by Thomas Chapin on Sunday, November 6th, 2005

Ok. So I finally got all these boxes unpacked and items put in the right places. And today, I finished setting up my home theater system and hung all my pictures. Try hanging speakers on a concrete wall. Very tricky!

Let’s just say it involved a masonry drill bit…

I’ll try and take some pictures of everything this evening or tomorrow and I’ll post them up on here.

On a side note, I’m starting to get some of the area explored around my apartment. It’s amazing! There’s everything from fast food joints and a movie theater, to wal-mart and home depot less than a mile away. Directly across the road from my apartment building, there’s a mexican restaurant where the George Bush once ate at.

Last night I drove to the big movie theater about 5 miles away and watched Chicken Little in full 3D with the glasses and everything. It was really neat because it wasn’t the standard red/blue, cheapo, headache-inducing 3D movie. They used clear glasses. Must have something to do with polarized light filters or something. But yeah. Anyways.
