Blues

Everyone take a moment this day to listen to Muddy Waters. If not this day, this weekend with some whiskey.

Still Alive

Hey all. Guess what? I'm still alive! Well don't all cheer at once it would be deafening. This picture is a testiment to me being alive: It was taken last Sunday morning (bout 3am) in Brooklyn. Although I was still alive when the picture was taken, I was nearly killed a couple minutes later by a gang of Punks that didn't think my Sweater Vest was particularly funny. Kids these days!

I'm down for meeting East coast style in August. LEt me know what's going to work for everyone and I'm game, cause I'm not planning anything.

Cheers.

Update: My Life

I've decided to postpone going back to the real world a little longer. Instead of graduating and getting a real job in December, I'm probably going to take the minimum number of classes for a bit and graduate at the end of March.

2 reasons why you care: First, if you guys all decide to get together out east in August, I should be able to fly out given enough notice. I promise I won't throw up on anyone's stuff. Second, one of the main reasons I'm doing this is so I have more time to work on my graduate project, and I'd like some ideas from you guys.

I started my project 8 weeks ago doing research and have narrowed it down to an area. It is a game for 1 - 4 players, age 6 - 12. The game will be designed to develop children in the areas of reflex, coordination, balance, and spatial relations. This summer I'll be spending a lot of time coming up with different concepts for the tasks involving the above abilities. If you think of any ideas crazy or plain, even impossible, I'd like to hear them. Good innovation often starts with ridiculous ideas.

Infinite Pictures

This is pretty cool. It's a picture photomosaic that zooms in infinitely. It doesn't really, but they give the effect that it does pretty well. I wonder how many different pictures they used.

Get your bacon

Friend of a friend of a friends blog about bacon. Here's an excerpt.

The Waffle House is a legendary American breakfast institution. Since 1955, they have served 786,449,152 slices of bacon. Also, if you lay all of the bacon end-to-end that Waffle House serves in a year, it will stretch from Atlanta to Los Angeles seven times.

June, Part Deux

I'm not going to let this get together idea die, dammit! Ryan has confirmed that he is indeed intending to drive out east at the end of June, and i'm seriously considering joining him. So would you fellas be up for trying to arrange a weekend get together somewhere? Jimmy, could we pick you up on the way? I think this has some potential.

CU Pot Smokers

I thought this was a minor thing, until I saw it on the national news today. Ridiculous. CU is offering $50 if you can identify any of the pictures of people smoking on 4/20. Where's Waldo?

Slope Day

I just happened to discover it's slope day. Raise one high to the memories of Tequila sunrises and our painted monkey!

This reminds me of Ryan, or maybe Dad.
