I came across this today, on my way to work. This made me feel SO damn good I was skipping the rest of the way. What a wonderful, magical thing to come across. I felt like the world was full of chance and possibility, and that we have a hand in shaping that chance. After seeing this, I felt like…
Check out the second trailer. Much better than the first.
Actually, each cup is a quadruple espresso. Where we work, Ben, Justin and I found an alternative to Starbucks at The Artisan Gallery (the link is a cached version of an old page at Google). They serve Illy coffee there, and it’s super cheap: a dollar for a double shot of espresso! They’re raising the price to a buck fifty…
Get ready world. Mr. Grumpy and TS7 have a little somethin’ somethin’ in the works. When the two of them get together and join forces, some of the most amazing shit happens. There’s a lot of folks I admire and respect involved in this project, and I’m excited to be a part of it. www.were-over-there.com Keep an eye out. May…
They’re back. Sorta.
Went to work early. So that I could leave work early. So that I could meet with Ken at The Poetry Center. I pitched the idea of creating an "audio archive," based in Flash, that would let them make all their recordings available to the public. They’ve been around for a long while (1976 I think), and they’ve had tons…
Alright. When you get to the end of it, you can yell at me for passing this along. But I still think this is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long while. // Edit: This post was created in a time before YouTube. Decided to come back and update this post with an embed of the actual…
I plopped down the money and did it. Got me a Lacie 40GB pocket drive. I’m planning on having most of my important work files on that thing, and it’ll come in handy when I install XP on this machine. I’ve been yapping about upgrading my home computer for ages… and it’s long overdue. Even though I know I need…
Alex and I were going to hang out tonight, and watch a movie. Before he arrives, I get a call from Kent and find out he’s free for the evening. We talk about Nola’s, and next thing I know he’s over at my place and we’re both waiting for Alex. When Alex arrives, we all head off for Nola’s (on…
My parents sent me a copy of Hero, but with English subtitles. I first heard about this film when I went home for my birthday, in March. I was pretty blown away by it, although I had to rely on them to translate the parts I couldn’t figure out for myself. This thing made Crouching Tiger look like a kid’s…
Nicole, having also heard my tale of being "snubbed" on Saturday, went so far as to get me another turtle from Caesar’s. Rock! This guy is now sitting on my speaker, at work. Thanks to the exhaust fan, its head bobs constantly.
Another one of those things you don’t normally see unless you keep an eye out.
Third Animatrix released.
Not all that focused this evening. Started to write bout my day (laundry, bills, dishes, usual suspects…). Then I decided that was too dull to recount. I don’t know why, but lately I seem to get incredibly sad for no apparent reason. Sad is too strong a word – blue? Depressed? I dunno. There’s a winter storm warning or some…
