David, a cube neighbor near me, has clued me into his day’s annoyance. There’s someone over the cube wall silently-ish humming to whatever music they’re listening to through headphones. If it weren’t for the fact that they’re at least partially tone deaf, we might be able to pick out the specific song.

Computer Guy
Someone just approached my desk at work and asked if I was a “Windows Guy.” I mistakenly said yes only to receive a follow-up question about the use of Adobe Writer. What part of being a “Windows Guy” means you’re also an Adobe Acrobat guy? Turns out I was able to answer her question. Damn… Continue reading Computer Guy
You’re not Ready
Having never attended college officially, I cannot speak to the readiness of our college graduates. I can say however, that nothing but life itself can prepare you for the world.
Walking Tall at L.A. Fitness
Wow! Amy and I worked L.A. Fitness’ grand opening in East Point today (south side Atlanta). She painted faces for children for 7 freakin’ hours and I walked on stilts for 5. The gig itself wasn’t too bad. Just walk and provide ambience to the visitors and members alike. People got a real kick out… Continue reading Walking Tall at L.A. Fitness
Today’s Memory Lapse
ARRRRGGHHH!!! I’ve done it again, only this time it’s worse! I left my clothes at home having left early for work to workout. It wasn’t a simple shirt this time, however. It’s nearly the entire enchilada. I did manage to bring fresh under garments. I also left my wallet in my car, having car-pooled with… Continue reading Today’s Memory Lapse
When is the Weekend only the Beginning?
Friday night I went out with family for Father’s Day – Amy’s sister was in town from Philly, so it was a special occasion. The two dad’s in the family were treated to dinner at Kiku’s, a fine Japanese hibachi place in Gainesville. I had been uncustomarily hungry throughout the week, so Friday night I… Continue reading When is the Weekend only the Beginning?
Celestial Studios Site Update
I just recently finished updating my wife’s website for her photography/art business downtown. The new design is a far cry from the old, and now works in more than one browser 🙂 It was ridiculous actually that it took me as long as it did to get around to re-designing it, but she really liked… Continue reading Celestial Studios Site Update
Adventures in Manhattan
I spent the greater part of this week in Newark, NJ where we have two offices – the other in Jersey City on The Hudson River. It was my first time to New Jersey and I got the opportunity to visit Manhattan for another first. I was prepared for more dangers than actually existed. The… Continue reading Adventures in Manhattan
Web Sites for Artists at the Quinlan
I’m putting together a class for the Quinlan Visual Arts Center in Gainesville towards the end of this month. I’ll be focusing on web site development by more traditional means. I think a critical step often forgotten by developers is wire framing and white boarding. Web sites are visual, so you should attack them visually… Continue reading Web Sites for Artists at the Quinlan
99x Sinner’s Ball 2006 at The Compound
Atlanta’s biggest (and only?) Mardi Gras celebration is hosted by 99x at The Compound. I was hired to stilt-walk at the engagement and lived to tell the story. To appreciate my situation better, you have to know that the club scene isn’t exactly my cup of tea. In fact, I have no real experience with… Continue reading 99x Sinner’s Ball 2006 at The Compound
