So, I had this semi-bright idea...

As the title claims, I had this semi-bright idea, to be honest, this whole thing could end a week from now, maybe less.

Here is my idea: Buy a Videocamera, take it with you everywhere, and post videos about your life.

This idea came from about a week ago, I said to my dad, "hey, how many times do you think you have told me a story about something that happened in your life, and you can't quite remember exactly what happened, so you just stretched the truth a little? Wouldn't it be cool if there was a way to go back and look on the internet at how it actually happened?"

Kinda sounds like I was being a dick right? I know, but my intention, this was not it. Just think of how many times you are in a situation, and the actual event in question was perceived many different ways. How would you look at that day, if you could watch it again and again as you get older.

Sure, everyone takes "home movies" and what not, but those are on special days like birthdays or graduating from kindergarten. Granted, the actual possibility of making a video to every mundane thing I do in my life, is stupid, thus, I only intend on taping stuff that matters, or things that are worth remembering.

So, Birthdays and...well, I'm 23, so unless I failed kindergarten and don't know it, we're past that....Not.

For instance, in a few days, I am heading to Los Angeles (California) to work the X-Games for ANC Sports. I will be setting up rotational signage for advertising, similar to the ones that I help run and maintain at PNC Park for Pittsburgh Pirate games. This would be something worth recording, me doing random shit in L.A.

I named this space, "Weldy's World" because a lot of people call me Weldy, and I figured that if my friends are checking it out, they will actually remember who is doing this.
