I get a fair amount of flack from friends and colleagues about my old skool practices -
code-wise: I like to hand code, it takes longer - but I debug less.
design-wise: I layout everything on paper (with red pencil) before it goes digital.
illustration-wise: I always draw a tight sketch in pencil (again RED pencil) and scan […]

We were in a lazy mood yesterday, so we popped over to the market and scrounged for something intresting and psuedo healthy for dinner. I had watched Bobby Flay’s Throwdown the night before - and Bobby made hot dogs, so I had hot dogs on the mind. I know I shouldn’t eat hot dogs, they’re […]
Going through the pockets on a sweatshirt I found a receipt, from WaWa — 3 Bagel-Cheese-Sausage sandwiches, A One Liter Diet Coke, and two Chunky bars - the timestamp reads clear as day 3:27am. Clearly — I have no one to blame for me being unhealthy but myself, it’s not feasible I shared one on […]

I’ve been cooking lately, and I’ve been on the hunt for decent low-carb, low-salt recipes that have a bit of heat, I’m all about the heat - there are all kinds of hot sauces on the market; some hot, some tasty — but surprisingly few that both have decent heat and a flavor.
I’m not a […]
So aggravating, I had a fellow illustrator do some artwork for a project, and he sent it over as a password-protected PDF, and of course, neglected to provide me the password, to further piss me off, he wasn’t reachable by either email or phone from 9am to 7pm - so in a deadline induced frenzy […]

So now that I kind of have a decent playlist, I decided to ‘kick it up’ a little bit, by eliminating the annoying gaps between the songs — of course Itunes can do this automatically, just switch on ‘crossfade between tracks’ & ‘gapless playback’ and you’re all set, but sadly this seemingly obvious feature isn’t […]
“T” and I have been walking every night, it’s no big deal — about a mile, generally she leads [she walks much faster than me] we both wear our ipods (her a shuffle, me a 40gb 4th gen), she has a kickass playlist that’s primarily 80’s pop, and it keeps her moving at a decent […]

I live an accumulative lifestyle, I realize that. I’m constantly fighting the habit, you see in my heart I’m a minimalist, if I could I’d throw all this crap out, paint the walls white, and get a single comfy chair for the center of the room, and just BE. I doubt that I’ll go that […]

As if the world could possibly use two of me, I’m rather desperate for — organized, educated, talented, aggresive, committed, eager and stable help in the studio, and no this isn’t a classified ad, but if it was the person could — illustrate in several styles (realism & decorative), code (ASP, PHP, AS, JS, […]
