Around a month or so ago, I was buying ice cream and when I got home I noticed something was wrong. I looked at the container and couldn’t figure it out. Then it dawned on me. They had made the container smaller while keeping the price the same. This has made me really mad! I understand the price of everything is going up these days, but to give me a smaller porption of ice cream to cut the cost??? What is up with that.
As soon as I saw it happen with one brand I knew everyone else was going to follow and that is what has happened. So I have decided to boycot the brands of ice cream that have shrunk their containers and to purchase a true half gallon.

Here are two TV commercials I just finished with Kilmer & Kilmer for our client Lovelace. I just did the little animations at the end of the commercials.
The first one is for the NICU at Lovelace Women’s Hospital.
The second one is for the Lovelace Community Health Plan, a low income insurance subsidized by the state of New Mexico. I really like how this animation turned out. There is a lot of detail in the swirls but some of it might be lost with the compression.
Over the past few months Kilmer & Kilmer (the company that I work at) has been updating their webpage. I got to design it and I have been helping with the launch. It is pretty cool design. The really cool part of this webpage is that it has a really big back end so we can make updates to the webpage without having to hire a programmer.
Today I was eating my lunch at work and notice a new webpage that the local newspaper put up. This is a sad and pretty scary comment about Albuquerque, New Mexico. Check out the number of DWI arrast in the past 7 days!!! Click here to see the map.
With the switch to digital TV coming and our current TV buzzing every time we watch it, Becky and I decided it was time to get a new TV. So We had been looking around for the past few months and the one we like the most was the Pioneer Kuro 42 inch Plasma. Even though it isn’t the highest resolution TV they have out right now it is by far had some of the best color contrast and best blacks available (Kuro means black in Japaness). It also has a really nice simple look to the TV which I liked over several other TVs with weird lights and graphics on the front.

So we picked it up this weekend and set it up. It sure has some really cool features and actually comes with a manual that is over 100 pages long. Since Becky and I just have an antenna on our TV we were excited to know that with Digital TV there are several extra channels that are now available to us. So not only do we have a really cool, huge TV we also have more channels to watch.
