ads: every web designer’s dream…
Saw this charming little ad on my way into the office today. You gotta love the Elvis glasses, right? It’s like hipster and kitsch all in… wait, is there a difference between hipster and kitsch? I admit that I am...

free video: The Times Of Harvey Milk
I shared this link to my Facebook page, but just in case there are people that have, so far, avoided the future site of social networking assimilation, here it is again. The online video site Hulu is offering the documentary...
video: is that like Linkin Park?
I blame my father. He bought two high-definition tv’s for their house, refurbished, but still very good sets, and the Blu-ray discussion came up. I’ve always been fairly non-stressed about upgrading my DVD player, even after conversations with friends and...
video: let me axe you something…

shopping: what’s your style?
Even though I overindulged a bit on Friday evening out with friends, I was still well enough–or so I thought–to head out with Kyle and hit the malls on a shopping excursion. I don’t have anything to buy for the...
movies: pride goes before The Fall
Saturday evening I finally–I’d wanted to see it for a while, but it slipped off my radar–saw The Fall directed by Tarsem Singh. I always appreciate stories within movies where the stories seem to take place on another plane, a...
