From: RockyTo: FelixSubject: Strong House Hey there Felix, Just doing a bit of catching up with your blog, and I wanted to chime in on the “strong house.” I recently moved out of the townhouse in the background of the 12/10/04 pic. We called the strong house the “garbage house,” as the entire structure was…
There aren’t that many things that change, drastically, in my daily walk from home to work. But this caught my eye today. Electronic parking meters – first ones I’ve seen. This sign is posted near the actual machine itself There are signs at several intervals, all of which have arrows that point back to the…
Ended up talking a while tonight with Clare (who I first met at Alex and Linda’s wedding). Fun conversations, and we got caught up a bit. Halfway through our talking, another IM window opened up, and I met one of Clare’s friends, Albie. She and I talked for a while (books, blogging and Monty Python)….
I like how these stickers are getting closer and closer to my house. It still amazes me sometimes that I first started seeing these stickers over 2 years ago.
Alain Robert: he’s climbed over 70 skyscrapers, to say nothing of the cliffs. He’s fractured both forearms, fractured his pelvis, fractured his nose, and suffers vertigo due to a fall. Uhm, yeah. Let’s see… Today, I did some laundry. And uh… took out the trash.
Philip K. Dick fans… this is your screensaver. When your computer goes to sleep (screensaver mode), it joins other computers to create a new “sheep” (a fractal flame). There is a new sheep born every 15 minutes, and the overall group of sheep constantly changes. You can vote for or against various sheep that you…
A really interesting series of character studies, by Michael Paulus. Hello Kitty finds its way into art a lot, it seems.
Travelled out to the suburbs with Chris and Justin, for Rey’s family Christmas party. Got to break out the camera a bit but, partly due to its newness and partly due to my shyness… I didn’t take all that many photos. I knew a handful of work folks at the party, but walking around taking…
Hung out with the boys again, and we played a crapton of poker. Three games, in fact. We started around 8PM and I ended up leaving somewhere around 1:30AM. Good stuff, and loads of fun. Will threw down an impressive amount of beer. I got to meet the infamous upstairs neighbors. Hung out in the…
In the time that I was without a camera, they did a lot of work here.
As interesting as this looks… I really wish they’d stop fucking with old movies. Seriously – how many remakes do we have to do each year? Is there such an absence of decent screenplays out there that we have to resort to hedging our bets like this? I’m torn about this film. I really want…
I was reminded of this game earlier in the week. This thing is maybe 3+ years old, but still fun as hell.
