Skeleton Hoodie

This afternoon, Bryan got a new hoodie in the mail. The best part? It’s a full hoodie, with the zipper going all the way up. I think there’s a bit of mesh where the eyesockets are. I dig the broken heart, and Mr. Van Damme just adds to the whole effect. Ok – you know…

Dogeaters

Bryan has a new page up with samples of his work, from his latest show. I wasn’t able to attend, but lots of his stuff is still on display over at clothes optional (2918 N. Clark Street). And if you’re not in Chicago, take a peek online. Bryan does some great work!

Direct Link (Albeit Temporary)

Yesterday, I mentioned the mp3’s I came across: the Stanford lectures by Robert Sapolsky. In the event that the whole iTunes podcast process was too much for you to go through… I’ve got the two audio files zipped and on my server. Click here to get a .zip file w/ both lectures. I’ll likely take…

On my drive home for the holidays, I was listening to an audio lecture to pass the time (a podcast that I got, via iTunes). I first heard aboutMacArthur Fellow Robert Sapolsky on BoingBoing, and made it a point to get the .mp3 files; after finally listening to them, I can’t recommend this enough. These…

Boooor-ing

This year’s 10 Most Dangerous Toys List is a big yawn-fest. Nothing exciting, nothing even that “dangerous” about any of them. There used to be a time when one could look to this list for fun gifts to purchase. And oh my, what fun it was!

Back Home

While on vacation, I didn’t take any photos. A nice bit of a break. Got to see my folks, as well as my sister, brother in law, his father, and my niece Jasmine. I also got to see my old college roommate Jim, his wife Sally, and their two lovely children – Benjamin and Stella….

Portraits

Today, Laura (Rey’s daughter) came in to the office. She was playing around on Rey’s computer part of the time, and hanging out with us on the floor the other half. During her visit, Allison was keeping her pretty entertained. After doing some coloring on the group mural, they started to do portraits of one…

Liz’s Books

Liz has been doing book stuff the past two days, and been working up a storm. I got to see a few of her more recent creations, and wound up asking her to put out all the books she’s made so far, so I could photograph them. Here’s a glimpse at what she’s done so…
