Improve Your Photos In 60 Seconds

Take better pictures with a 60 second primer from idigitalphoto. Although it’s a bit longer than 60 seconds, you can focus on the lighting, flash, and composition sections.

When the sun is high and the light is hard, don’t fight it to try to get it all. Concentrate on exposing the bright parts properly and work with the shapes of shadows.

Aside from that, I recommend using natural features as a frame around the border of the picture. If you’re taking some party pictures of people, make sure not to give them more than 2 seconds to pose.

For around $15 you can save yourself a few steps per day to the shredder, with one that can follow you around!

The InnoDesk personal shredder makes a great gift for the lazy, or small children who can rip it open and accidentally dismember themselves.

Instead of throwing away you sensitive documents or using them as barbecue kindling, shred them to protect your privacy.

Like Boobs? Like Gadgets? Combine the Two!

Mr. Lazy — Thu, 03 May 2007 07:00:19 +0000

Combining things that really don’t need to be combined is what laziness is all about, even if the combination expends more energy than is saves.

Take for example two things we all really like. Boobs, a worldwide favorite go great with many things. Gadgets, like video games, PDAs, and nose-hair pluckers often get in the way of boobage. The fine folks at American Inventor Spot have compiled a list of the best boob gadgets.

There is probably no use in writing anymore as even the mere mention of boobs with have you clicking (either away from this site or on to the list). Just FYI, the first page that opens from the link is safe for work, the second one not so much.
