We have lower case and upper case letters. Why not lower and upper case numbers? John Weistroffer pointed this out to me while we were discussing why upper and lower letters exist. Then we figured that the numbers before the…
Another note on the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago: they recently installed new floors this winter on the second floor. I’m not sure what material they are made out of, but it’s kind of a plastic rubbery material. When…
I went to Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art today. It’s only free on Tuesdays. Today being Thursday, you’re supposed to pay. When you pay, you get a little metal button to wear. It’s not a pin, but a clip-on button,…
I’m considering getting a new PDA (like one of them PalmPilot doo-dahs). I had one a couple years ago, but it’s been busted for a couple years now. Check out what I’m looking at.
Today i got kicked out of the Amoco Building in Chicago. I wasn’t really inside the building when i got kicked out. I was standing right next to it taking pictures. The Amoco Building (or AON Center as it’s now…
Another reason why the Tribune Company is superior over the Sun-Times. (both are competing newspapers in Chicago). This afternoon I got some Subway for lunch and walked over by the Sun-Times building to eat, because it was close by. Upon…
I did a bunch of portfolio reviews today with a bunch of design students. One thing i found was that students with experience in film did an excellent job of explaning things in their portfolio.
Today i spilled some tartar sauce from my filet o fish sandwich on my shirt. It made me wonder if tv newsmen ever spill stuff on their shirts during commercial break. If so, would they have an extra one handy…
I forgot to add one of the most crucial elements to my campaign. One of the most controversial topics. The issue that will set me apart from the competition. The issue that will get brought up at every one single…

I was laying in bed looking at the same old photos in my frames. I thought it would be nice to have pictures that can swap in and out digitally. The retail prices for those digital frames are still like…
I am Mr. Do.I am sedentary by nature, enjoying passive entertainment, eating when the mood takes me, and playing with my food. I try to avoid conflict, but when I’m angered, I can be a devil – if you force…
Just finished up my review of sawmill, a program that analyzes raw log files from my website. I would definetely recommend this program. It’s so extremely versatile and customizable. You can even set it up to block out spiders and…
