My pal Darryl is the art director for a new magazine called Geez. Also of note, one of the founders of Geez has an article in the current online edition of Sojourners…
We talked about Geez last Sunday at our small group. I think if you appreciate adbusters, buy nothing day and buy nothing christmas, you’ll probably dig Geez.
From boing boing, here’s a great shop that sells rocker jive for kids. Myung Hee might be sporting this onesie:
We were in Redmond over the weekend. Amy was teaching for the university, so Tru and I hung out a bit. He’s got a pretty nice cast… I took a few vid clips with the camera, which I’ll post later…
Two cool creative outlets I ran across (feels like I’m the last person to find them):
Just another cheesy Valentine’s Day sentiment:
This has been all over since last week, but I figured I’d drop a note here just in case you hadn’t seen these clips. First, there’s a new Volkswagen video clip that’s making the rounds. It features some sweet poppin’ and lockin’ from a dancer named ‘Elsewhere.’ The commercial can be found here (.mov), but I really like this one (.wmv) the best. Watch the third dancer…unreal.
We went to see that new Winnie the Pooh movie today. It was Tru’s first time at a movie theater and he was a little bit in awe. We went with my sister, two of her kids and our friend Heidi and her daughter. The best part was that we had the whole theater to ourselves!
We kinda talked about the whole experience with Tru when we got out of the theater. We said, “That was a big screen, huh?” Tru said, “Yeah, it’s bigger than God!” 🙂
One for the LazyWeb: Is it possible to make a website think FireFox is actually IE? How’s it done? I’ve searched for an extension that does this, but am coming up short…
Update: found it!
Went to a conference at the beach and I was stuck behind Vanna White for most of the drive, so I took a pic… Cracked me up! (hint, you’ll have to click the pic and look at the license plate)
I took half a day off on Friday to drive Myung Hee’s paperwork down to the adoption agency’s main office in Eugene. I’d done the same thing for Tru a few years ago, plus I just felt a little bit better about handing over that HUGE check in person rather than sending it via FedEx.
Anyway, it takes a couple of hours to drive to Eugene from Newberg. I listened to an audiobook on the way, so it went pretty fast. I know that the good folks at Holt weren’t expecting me to show up with our paperwork, so their response upon receipt of our stuff was understandable. They just essentially said thanks and we’ll be in touch. And I got back in my car and drove another two hours back home.
But it sure would’ve been nice if they’d had a big old bell that they rang, or at least an ‘ah ooo gah’ horn or something, every time someone brings in their final paperwork. They could ring the bell and everyone in the office could shout “HEY!” or something.
Just looking for a little acknowedgement here… 🙂
