This “mike tyson punching dubya” flash ad is brilliant… i could watch Tyson punch Bush all day long…” —Me, in an IM chat with a co-worker today The sad thing is they actually want you to click the ad to make Bush fight back… but you’re too mesmerised to do anything at all, and thus…

I love the dictionary.
The thought occured to me today on how the dictionary (and the built-in dictionary functionality in Mac OS X, in particular) has really improved my vocabulary. Not so much in the realm of expansion, per se, but more so in my understanding. For example, how many times do we find ourselves using a term, and…
Flood
I haven’t written in a bit, so here’s a really brief recap: Work is busy, as always. The weather is getting better, though you never know with Utah. My 25th birthday is this friday… My basement flooded due to poor rain gutters (rental, what can you do?) and massive amounts of melting snow. Many old…
And I quote…
So, Scientology, you may have won THIS battle, but the million-year war for earth has just begun! Temporarily anozinizing our episode will NOT stop us from keeping Thetans forever trapped in your pitiful man-bodies. —Matt Stone and Trey Parker in response to Tom Cruise pulling his weight to have an episode of South Park, spoofing…
Suggest.
You know, I really despise the fact that iTunes’ “Just for you” feature, due to the simple fact that I’ve told it I own a heafty bit of Elliot Smith records, automatically assumes I love Bright Eyes and want to listen to everything Mr. Oberst has ever put out (which, sadly, is about four million…
Non-young.
I was reading a very brief article on SpeakUp tonight, and it got me thinking about age. The subject of the piece was young designers and their propensity to head for a computer, for photoshop, and to just crank out the work instead of researching and properly designing (and a jab at the “I know…
Happy Australia Day
So, I’ve been pretty bad the past few years, forgetting Australia Day completely until like a week later. Luckily, I saw a wikipedia entry on Tim Tam Slams today, which flipped a switch in my brain, sending me searching for the date of Australia Day, which I knew was this week. Lo and behold, it…
Doug.
Hold your horses, guys, this post isn’t about this Doug, as cool as that may have been (maybe later). I’m speaking about Doug Smith, and more specifically his, ahem, Autoplex. You see, after a couple of years with my beloved Mazda6, I decided that sliding in the snow up in Park City wasn’t nearly as…
iSkin
I hold the protective cases made by iSkin in very high esteem. I’ve had them on my last two iPods, and they’ve performed admirably. The same, however, cannot be said of the company’s online store and shipping department. My first purchase of an iSkin (and evo1, i believe) was through a third party online store…
If you haven’t noticed…
I’m playing a bit with the colours and headers of the site. While not a redesign (or realign or re-whatever-the-hell-Cameron-is-calling-it-these-days), at very least I hope to let you fine individuals know I haven’t forgotten about the site. I’ve been majorly busy designing and launching site designs and working on some ad campaigns, and my plans…
