Art LA was A O K . . .

Sunday, January 29th, 2006

But not much more than that
After my fine breakfast at home I called Mr. Crim and we met up around noon-ish at the Santa Monica Civic Center for Art LA. I don’t have an extremely broad sense of art appreciation. I like low-brow art and other strange pop-esque art type thing-a-ma-bobs. The [...]

Nothing Like a Nice Self-Prepared Breakfast . . .

Saturday, January 28th, 2006

Ahh up early (for me) on a Saturday morning
Well up early in a general sense. If I were going fishing or hiking or camping or something along those lines it would be late, but alas I am not. I am going to the Art LA show at the Santa Monica Civic and that [...]

Thursday, January 26th, 2006

They hunt for cool
I’m sure I’m probably a day late and a dollar short since you all have probably been there and done that. Okay, that aside, my sister told me about The Cool Hunter Today. Anyways it’s a killer site that compiles the latest and greatest in the worlds of design, lifestyle, [...]

Punk Rock Bowling Tournament 2006 . . .

Tuesday, January 24th, 2006

or more specificly the BYO Records Presents . . . The 8th Annual Punk Rock Bowling Tournament
Flew in to Las Vegas Friday morning for the event. After having flown United recently I have to say Southwest kinda sucks. Sure it’s cheap, but I like assigned seats and room for more than one elbow [...]

Windows XP on an Intel Mac . . .

Monday, January 23rd, 2006

Donate to the cause, I did!

Colin Nederkoorn is lazy. Well not as lazy as me, but lazy. He isn’t figuring out how to boot Windows XP on an Intel Mac. But what he IS doing is collecting donations to a contest fund for the first person who CAN boot Windows XP on [...]

Neistat Brothers . . .

Wednesday, January 18th, 2006

Check’em out
A long time ago I was web surfing (funny how that term has nothing to do with spiders or the ocean) and came across the Neistat Brothers site. I don’t remember what I was looking for but I found these videos which I thought were cool:
“Bike Theif”
“Holland Tunnel”
I hadn’t been to their site [...]

Mt. Wilson Trail, First Water . . .

Monday, January 16th, 2006

. . . kicked my ass today.
Well, today I decided to go for a short 3 mile hike. I hadn’t been to the Mt. Wilson Trail in Sierra Madre in at least a year so I figured it would be a nice diversion from reading and writing. I forgot how steep that trail [...]
