First GoPro Pics!

So, yeah, my wife gave me a GoPro for Christmas - 8 months ago. I think she was expecting exciting videos of her studly husband bravely riding his mountain bike off of a desert cliff and parachuting to the safety of a canyon floor below. That would require me getting a mountain bike, a parachute, and finding a cliff - not to mention a pair of balls a size larger than those I'm currently packing.
I did finally get it out and after a Vash size eff-up (I put the wrong case on it and soaked it in water) I actually made a little 1 minute video. I basically dunked in our fish pond to get a look at the world as they see it. It turned out to be a blessing because I caught a glimpse of one of the albino catfish we put in the pond two months ago and haven't seen since. I thought they had died.

For my next video I'm going to buy a tripod for my iPhone so I can make an iPhone video of myself operating my quadcopter as it videos my fish interacting with the GoPro. It will be a statement about narcissism in the age of ubiquitous and instantaneous image "sharing."

edit: Hmm, after the fish vid youtube pops up an unfinished clip from a video I made from the quad copter 2 years ago. I don't know why.
