Alright. So a while ago, I did this Flash microsite for a car giveaway (Mancow’s Big Phat Ride). The car in question was a bright yellow Hummer. Tonight, a bunch of us were standing around looking over some of Chris’ work. Rey (my boss) had this idea in his mind, and got reminded of what …
Well, they’re not exactly cubes. But sorta. With the addition of more folks to our group, we needed more desks. Rey came in this morning from the burbs, and got in the office by 6AM to let folks in to set up some new spaces. There was a lot of stuff everywhere, and little room …
This is a rough outline of the nav I’m working on right now, for our Content Management System. I’ve been struggling with it for a while now, and tonight was fairly frustrating. I’m really close to getting it totally functional, but a few slight tweaks are eluding me. Justin and I had some Thai delivered, …
Sorry this is blurry as well. I grabbed a shot of Mike on the floor. I found it funny because it looked like he had just moved into a new apartment, and was ordering food. He had to move his desk (read: he was working off of our large meeting table) out of the way …
This is blurry, but worth documenting. Walking up the steps to the train, I looked over and happened to see a flash of white. Eggs! Or, at least one egg. The past few weeks, I had all but given up, as I hadn’t really seen this bird anywhere at all. But it looks like she’s …
Justin and I talked shop after work today. Nothing makes me feel nerdier than downing whiskey at a bar, going through XML node structure. Everyone… meet Opie (at least, I think that’s his name). He has a remarkable pitching arm.
The River Project: an awesome series of images from eccesignum.org. I stumbled across this today, and ended up looking at every single photograph. However busy you are… you can find the time. Take a look through this collection and get lost a while.
Before leaving work, I loaded up that mp3 player with a bunch of songs. Some I haven’t heard in a while, some that were new recommendations from my friend Ben. A lot of them were slow and sad, which I guess was the mood I was in. Still am, to some degree. On the way …
Tonight, at about 11PM, I decided I was going to sit on my porch for a while. I turned off all the lights (porchlights as well as the ones in the kitchen that shine out). I grabbed a beer and my camera, and just sat there, in the dark, for a while. What light there …
I headed out today to North Avenue to grab some food. On my way out, I noticed some incredible cloud formations the likes of which I don’t think I had ever seen before. Stupid me, I didn’t have my camera on me. I need to remember to always, ALWAYS bring the fucker with me everytime …
I’m an uncle! I got a call from my sister today, and she told me the good news. Looks like the due date’s going to be right on December 25th! Funny thing – in Chinese families, anyone who’s even remotely related is called “Auntie” or “Uncle,” regardless if they’re actually part of your family or …
crew9.com. Eight tiny images make for a great effect, when grouped together. Great stuff here.
Felix's Chinese name is Wei Tien. For the longest time, he thought his name meant "very sky." But he later found out it roughly translated to "Preserver of Heaven."
Felix was in show choir in high school. He can still pull out the old "jazz hands" if need be, due in no small part to muscle memory.
Every once in a while, Felix has some interesting run-ins with other Asians. At times, they're armed with cameras; at other times, he has the slight feeling that they might be armed, period.
