I mentioned a while back how much I like the work of Adam Koford, but that was before I’d seen his entries for the 700 Hoboes Project. There’s a ton of really clever entries in there.
What impresses me the most is how he used the project as an excuse to experiment. He’s a kick-ass cartoonist [...]

Much like an invasion of Iraq, redesigning the theme for my website always sounds like a good idea at first. It’s only after hours of horror and a mounting death toll that I realize what a mistake I’ve made. Unlike the current administration, though, I know when to pull out.
Insert usual spiel here: it doesn’t [...]

Entertainment Weekly just ran an article about Rosario Dawson in which Kevin Smith calls her a “hot geek.”.
Which to me is like saying “compassionate conservative;” it just doesn’t exist. The terms are mutually exclusive. For those of us who were nerds back when being a nerd meant something (mostly it meant rejection and shame), this [...]

Leaving your family to fend for themselves during a major illness sucks. Waiting in line 45 minutes just to get through airport security sucks. A two-hour layover at Washington Dulles sucks.

The thing has run ungodly hot ever since I got it, but what with [...]

I finally started to dig through all the shaky video I took at Disney World, finally taking advantage of all the iMovie and iDVD and iWhateverElse I’ve been paying for with every OS X update.
It’s reasonably fun, but it sure takes a hell of a lot of time. And I’ve learned it’s crucial to save [...]

I remember when a new announcement from Apple would have me visibly excited and reaching for my wallet.
I even waited around today for Pacific Time to catch up so I could see what all the hoopla was about. And the experience was like when you have to go see that distant cousin who’s a [...]

I finally got back to Georgia from Orlando on Friday night. Even after a month and a half in Orlando and being very ready to leave, it still ended kind of abruptly. It would’ve even been nice to have one more day there as a non-working guest, instead of just one minute being at Epcot [...]
