  • Illegal Art and Threadgill (and Shag)

    ramblings

    While perusing a site about the Illegal Art exhibition (think a Mickey Mouse gas mask, an alphabet made from corporate logo letters, and a “Corporate Whore” parody of the Starbucks logo), I discovered one of the contributing artists, Threadgill, who creates some incredible artwork… very clean and clever, and reminds me in a way of another of my favorite artists, Shag.

    Some amusing things of note on Threadgills pages; The Atlas Monsters in Creamy Goodness, Buzz Aldrin’s Conspiracy Smackdown and My Dictatorship. But, by all means, please visit the entire site.

  • Tacky Shirt

    geek

    So, I’m brainstorming ideas for a fun name for my new e-learning company, and I think, "Hey I’ve taken to wearing loud hawaiian shirts lately. How about… ummmm… TackyShirt!"

    So, I type it in my browser, and lo and behold, there is already a tackyshirt.com, and in an astoundingly ironic coincidence, they are an e-learning company, dedicated to teaching folks about Mac OS X.

    Figures.

    Hey, at least I get bonus points for using the word "ironic" properly, right? Take that, Alanis!

  • Keyboard Love

    3 min geek

    I’ve used many a Macintosh keyboard since 1986, but there’s maybe about four that I’ve really used with any regularity. As with any object you use a lot and have the occassion to try different brands when your old one wears out — not unlike automobiles — you tend to form opinions about which one(s) […]

  • Saturn in Alignment with Paul Hogan

    ramblings

    Well, looks like I’ve got a buyer for the Saturn (our friendly neighborhood Airborne Express-Man). He and his brother (who is, apparently, a Honda mechanic) hame by this afternoon, looked it over, took it for a spin around the parking lot, and said they’d be back for it tomorrow afternoon. And, now that I’ve spent the remainder of the day searching for (and finding!) the title for the little beast, looks like everything’s a go.

    What will I be driving now, you ask? Well, I’m finally taking over the car I “inherited” from my great uncle late last year: a 1999 Subaru Legacy Outback. This one’s an automatic (the Saturn was a 5-speed manual), so even my wife can drive it! Huzzah!
