Rondo might be the death of me

If I were playing Celtics drinking game last night (perhaps a little on the sad side since I was watching it alone in my apartment) and my Celtics drinking player were Rajon Rondo (as always), the damage would have been:

  • 33 shots of beer (field goals by Celtics players not named Rondo)
  • + 20 shots of beer (total points by Celtics players named Rondo)
  • + 6 shots of hard liquor (total number of jump shots made by Rajon fucking Rondo)

The hard shots were doable in the past since Rondo averaged about 0.2 made jump shots per game. Apparently he’s found his jumper and on an unrelated note, I’m announcing my retirement from Celtics drinking game. PEACE

Playing video from a USB on a Sony Bravia

Partially for me to share, but mostly for me to remember in the future.

The Sony Bravia can do some pretty cool things, like being connected to the internet and doing internet like things, such as integrating directly with Netflix, Hulu, Youtube, Pandora, etc. I was really psyched that it had the capabilities of playing videos directly from a USB, but unfortunately it did not play nicely with the format of most of my videos, i.e. .avi files.

After doing some digging, I found out how to convert the .avi files to finally be playable.

  1. Get avidemux (http://fixounet.free.fr/avidemux/)
  2. Open .avi file
  3. Select MPEG-4 AVC on the dropdown by Video
  4. Select AAC on the dropdown by Audio
  5. Select MP4 for Format
  6. Save into USB drive
  7. Pop in the Bravia and enjoy!

Anything I can do, my brother can do better

It’s been a long lasting tradition that everything I’ve attempted to do, my younger brother has been able to one-up me, whether it’s trying to place on the state math team, being a trumpeter on the regional wind-ensemble, acing guitar hero/ddr, or being taller.

Just wanted to give an update to the score between us. This past weekend, I went to Atlantic City and came away with ~$75 from the poker table. I’m feeling really good about myself. That’s a pretty nice hard-earned haul that I had to grind until 6 am for. Then I get a call from my mom the very next day, excitedly exclaiming how my brother placed first at a campus preview weekend poker tournament at MIT and came away with an iPad.
