There’s a place where one should be able to disconnect. Away from the trappings of modern conveniences. No internet, no computers, no phones. No malls, no urban rituals, no desire or lust for material goods. For me, this place does exist. It’s a place I love dearly and it’s called Key West. It’s in Florida.

The Girl™ and I spent most of the day re-arranging some items in the household and started honing in on finishing up the bedroom and finally starting to lay down the final configuration of the home studio. Sure, it’s 2+ years later but hey, pieces are hard to come by.

From our good friends at the Busy Beaver Button Co.
Restrained in a good way. No gaudy CRIBS type excess, unless you consider his high taste and mix of pop and couture excess.
1, 2, 3, 4.
Lovely work, in black and white and grey.
The redesign of Mozilla Labs that I did recently is now up and running.
Andrew and I were interviewed for an article about Twitter recently. It’s now live on the Chicago Tribune website. I sound like a buzzkill at the end. In a good way, to me, anyway.
“Talking about sports using war analogies – athletes are not ‘warriors’ and the court is not a ‘battle zone.’ and “Drinking light beer. There is nothing good about light beer, especially when it’s called ‘lite.’ Our taste buds are one thing – why do you have to assault the English language as well?”
