[info]ed_dirt films the most relaxing video I've ever seen/heard. It gets really good about 30 seconds in.

My little webcomics group has spawned. [25 Jun 2009|11:06pm]
reposted: Hey guys,

This is TSHolden from Sandstorm Conscience, just putting a general reminder out to the internet that Evan Dahm (of Rice Boy) and I will be hosting the first meeting of the NCWCCC-WB (North Carolina WebComics Coffee Clatch Western Branch) NWW? I have been alarmingly negligent in publicizing this, so here are the details:

Where: Boone NC
Specifically: Expresso News (http://www.espressonews.com/ (has sound))
When: 6:00pm this Saturday.
How long: About an hour or until they kick us out

Sorry if anyone wanted to come but didn't know about it: Evan and I will figure out future meetings further in advance and get the word out sooner!

Mutant squash with leaves growing out of/into the fruit, fresh from my garden.
See, I do have a chartreuse thumb.

Oh, yeah!

There was one of those confusingly punctuated poetic photo-comic things this week:

electric dog [13 Jun 2009|11:32pm]
I'm thinking of posting this around my house.

It says "Danger! No Entry! My dog is electric!" in Czech.

But I think the v is extraneous.

and yes, I haven't played with the fonts yet.

New Sinister Bedfellows!

It was a pretty good weekend.

There was my sister's shower, a party with local academic types and their kids, much discussion of renovating old houses, chocolate chip pancakes, and fireflies.

That was Saturday.

Today there was biscuits and gravy, much moving of boxes and furniture (preparatory to cleaning out the mother-in-law's room to be), rediscovery of long packed books, and then... scary stomach problem, which is being monitored and will be treated as necessary.

Did you know that the Bloody Flux can be cured by the ingestion of warm camel dung? It's all down to the proper bacteria.

The road not taken, Wednesday afternoon [05 Jun 2009|10:29pm]
Set up my phone so I can email pics to flickr. If you watch my flickr feed or http://mckenzee.tumblr.com/, there should be more randomness than usual.

Now, where did I leave those flaming green feathers? [05 Jun 2009|01:47pm]
I'm dreaming dialogue so I guess my brain really wants to tell this story.

Coming soon, The True History of the Conquest of Spain by the Mexicas.

Hey, Lazyweb! [04 Jun 2009|11:34pm]
Anyone out there an expert on the Songhai Empire or the Tuareg?

Also, do you know of any good accounts of being pregnant at sea?

Apple, my favorite Design company [26 May 2009|11:27pm]

This really lousy cell phone photo is my single share of Apple stock, purchased on October 1, 2001, for $7.77. Today it is worth $130.

Someday it will be framed, hanging in my office, probably over a desktop running Linux :)

Finally! An explanation for Sinister Bedfellows.

I'll just sprinkle periods and commas across this giant sentence. [21 May 2009|10:32pm]
Locks have been changed. Well, one lock, the only one they got a key to. Fortunately, for some unknown reason, the former owners had a deadbolt installed on the den closet. So I swapped it out for the back door. I guess, now, if the kids who stole my keys actually broke into the house, they could unlock the closet. But I'm OK with that.

hmmm... $10 roundtrip from Burlington to Greensboro via Amtrak. That's about the same as gas and parking...

In other news, I'm going to bed.

My phone was stolen, can I have your phone number again?

FedExBasic


Probably too subtle to count as a redesign, but I think FedEx should have a nice single color logo. Think of it as Economy Class shipping.

For reference, here is the actual logo. There doesn't seem to be a monochrome version.
