How to Ruin a Vintage Car
So I am walking to get some coffee from Peet’s this AM and I see this beautiful vintage car, with shitty rims but I am willing to forgive that. As I get closer I notice the rainbow LV print that is accenting the interior (vomit). I wondered what was going thru this mental midget’s mind? Did he think he would get more ass? or is it a woman who just loves LV? either way the person...

Muxtape vs. The RIAA (and what we can learn) →
For those who don’t know the RIAA has shut down Muxtape.com a site who was keeping the concept of a mixtape alive online. According to the Muxtape site they are only shut down temporarily but the link above paints a clear picture of what is going on.
The music industry is so fucking stupid it pains me. I hope they come to a decent resolution.
Rick Rubin Article →
This is an Article is from a little under a year ago, and is an interesting read.
“The most important thing we have to do now is get the art right. So many of the decisions at these companies have not been about the music. They sign artists for the wrong reasons — because they think somebody else wants them or if they need to have a record out by a certain date. That old way of doing things...
YellowPageGoesGreen.org (finally) →
It’s about time I got rid of this waste of paper, you know everytime these come none of my neighbors even pick up one copy. They just sit there and get recycled by our landlord (and I am sure outside of SF people don’t even recycle them, ahem… Miami) I just filled mine out, and just to be clear this is a third party company that contacts the Yellow/White Pages for you. Thanks...

That’s because it is shitty collages. But, as a designer who constantly likes to keep up with trend, this site could prove to be very useful. Thanks C.

hate (part 3) / love (part 1)
Facebook
I’ll begin with the love. Living in a new city with only a few people I can call close friends, I really appreciate facebook, it is a way of connecting that has gone beyond myspace, I don’t think it is better than myspace just different, more personal. I love being able to read updates of what my friends are doing at the moment, it keeps me connected to a lot of people I...
cake.
“you can’t have your cake and eat it too” Before I begin my rant I want to acknowledge that I understand the phrase’s meaning and have probably used it when I was bright eyed and naive. That said, this is one of the dumbest fucking phrases I have ever heard. Who would have cake and not eat it? So I have this cake in my kitchen and a friend comes over, I say “hey, you...
WatchMy Drive Thru on Vimeo (via Vimeo) I don’t know who hasn’t seen this video yet, but it is ill. enjoy.
Comments are finally working!
I have enabled commenting thru a program called DISQUS (pronounced discuss). It looks like any other blog comment section but if you sign up on their site (whether to add to your blog or just as a commenter) it keeps an archive of all the sites (enabled with DISQUS) you comment on, even if the tumblr or blog has been deleted. It is very easy to install, depending on the site you have your blog...

Great site design… I forgot how ugly the old Mac OS’s were.
Vimeo
Vimeo (as you can see by my postings below) is a great video site, the quality is a million times better than youtube, it just does not have as much stuff on there.

hate (part 2)
I really hate bands & record labels who bitch about people stealing their music when they are the cause of it in the first place. We are in an age of instant gratification, where anything released in any country can be found on the internet. That said why is it so hard to get a legitimate high quality DRM free MP3 album from many artists I like? My most recent example is the debut album V...
