I just saw e-mail announcing today’s offerings from the 20×200 project. This photograph by Joseph O. Holmes just kills me:
It’s called “amnh #62″ and was taken in a New York museum, I believe.
At this point I do not have room for more art so I will not buy a print. But maybe I [...]
You know, I’ve found that making stupid Amazon Associates widgets, much like window shopping for domains that I will never buy, is a great way to blow off some steam. (Will someone please register magickpony.com?)
Frustrated with the way things are going at work? Just make a gallery of ridiculous cocktail rings. I [...]
You mustn’t think me an Amazon whore if I link to their products in my posts, when I’m reviewing books I’ve read, etc. It is true, I am an affiliate through this site, and would love added income, but Richard also works for THEM now, so… it feels a little less weird.
If [...]
For all that Richard may jeer at my methods of organizing my digital photos, I’m happy with them for now. One of the ways I deal with the steadily accumulating data is to go back to “this date” a year ago, two years ago, etc, and see what has been left unprocessed.
One year [...]
After an exhausting day of punching my urinary tract via day #1 of antibiotics[1], which may or may not be causing me to hallucinate that I am Cher, I just want to post this photo I took of an anemone. Just a simple autumn Japanese anemone.
[1] Please note that the Rector of the Beemouse [...]
As Provost, Chancellor, President, and Rector of the Beemouse Institute for Advanced Study, it is my pleasure to announce October 22nd as Punch Your Urinary Tract Day.
The aim of Punch Your Urinary Tract Day is to increase awareness of how terribly, terribly lame it is to experience symptoms of urinary tract pathology. We expect [...]
I decided that I wanted to give some background on the photos that I’m offering in my pay-what-you-want print sale.
So, today:
Sad breakfast, 2007
I was sitting outside last summer, playing with seed pods from my Chilean glory vine (Eccremocarpus scaber). That vine grows like a mad thing in Seattle and produces the most beautiful brilliant [...]
Spotted yesterday in a Fancystore (real store name forgotten)[1], located across the street from the REI Flagship store in the Eastlake neighborhood.
Ok seriously, SERIOUSLY peeps. I actually felt a little insulted by this. I began to wonder if these piglets with their gilded, luminous corked bellies were making fun of me somehow.
I like [...]
Let us take a moment to contemplate my “most viewed” flickr photo of all time:
Hmm. That’s me five years ago with a giant, itchy spider bite on my chin. If you google “spider bites” (without quotes), you’ll see me on page 6. I recommend careful consideration before looking at the first 5 [...]
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
My friend Theresa is doing a 24-hour video game marathon as part of the Sarcastic Gamer Extra Life fundraiser, which benefits Texas Children’s Hospital.
The fundraising efforts end tomorrow. (“Computer: day of the week?” “Thursday”.)[1] That’s Friday, people! Theresa only has one day to make up the last $292 to meet her $2000 goal! [...]
