Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can't believe I've never seen this sort of phone case before. I'd like to hand test one of them. Looks like it could be great, or unwieldy.

I was all aflutter about that, but Pete wisely pointed out that, while it's a nifty idea, what it really means is that if you lose your wallet, you also lose your phone at the same time.

And if you lose your purse, you lose everything in it--it's not much of a pitch for pockets instead.

Which is to say. maybe I don't lose my wallet enough (not in the past 15 or so years) for me to think the convenience of having everything where I can find it all at once is outweighed by the downside of having it where I can lose it all at once. It's not like I separate my money from my credit cards or my ID.

It just makes it less likely that I'll forget my wallet at home.

I think the real message is that Pete is really, really paranoid sometimes.

Are his valued possessions like the British royal family and not allowed to all fly together at once?

Ha! Well, he does keep his phone and wallet in separate pockets ...

Halp.

Ok, so I finally made a video to put on my biz webpage.

Problem is, I am a complete noob, have shit equipment and my video doesn't sync with what I'm saying.

It's here: [link]

I can take down the Youtube vid, but does anyone have any advice on how to make sure my words and my video match up? I really want to be able to make vids and embed them in my web page; it's a really good marketing tool.

I'm using Windows Live Movie Maker.

Um, also any other feedback on the vid is welcome. I'm pulling this all out of my butt.

ETA:

I played around, and it's definitely my crappy built-in webcam with the voice lag.

So I'm just going to try again with my camera tomorrow, and then edit with Movie Love Caption Maker thingie.
