I’ve missed the last couple updates for my blogs, mostly because it’s been a hell of a couple of weeks. Between the family coming to visit and some relationship drama I’ve been on a bit of a emotional roller coaster. But we’re back...

I am incredibly excited because sometime tomorrow my brother and my father will be inhabiting the same metropolitan area as me!* So not only will I get to see my family (I really am a homebody at heart and the only bad thing about Seattle is just how far away I...

Apologies that I’m a tad behind on updates this week, but here’s a wonderful article on whether the color magenta even exists over at Null Hypothesis to tide you...

One of these days I’m going to break down and buy a smart phone. It’s not that I don’t want one, every time I’m out with friends and one of them pulls up Where’s Your Bus or Open Table or- deus avertat- Angry Birds I look longingly at those smooth rectangles of...

Okay, so I didn’t do anything Tuesday night for Mardi Gras and didn’t mind at all, at least not until I saw all of the pictures of carnival on MSNBC’s photo website. Check out the slide show by clicking the image or here. Seriously, these parties are...

Here’s the last batch of images I have from an outing a couple of weeks ago, some of which are more in the line of “Street Art” than graffiti. It’s a palindrome person! I think this might be a band sticker, but the unicorns impressed me...

There was a time when I was able to take pride in the fact that I had never had the need to pay for anti-virus software. I thought that good old safe internet practices, such as not downloading strange files or browsing questionable websites, would keep me safe...

Occasionally history seems to echo Men In Black. Edwards: Why the big secret? People are smart. Kay: A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Of course, we tend to think that craziness is something that only far-off or...

I like to think that the bottom sticker applies directly to me. Flying cow wearing a sombrero? Or is it a pig with cow spots? This one’s stylish. This one not so much. I’m sure this is supposed to be someone...

And it’s time for another session of Seattle street stickers and randomness. Brought to you care of my cell phone camera, straight from Capitol Hill to your computer. I wonder if this is supposed to be a commentary on milk and bones. I love the...
